Generation Unleashed!!!!

Posted: 01/27/2008 at 04:26PM |

There are so many words I could use to describe Generation Unleashed, but it wouldn't be fair to you because there is not a word [words] that are adequate enough to help you really know how it really was. Life Changing is a word I could use, AMAZING is a word I could use, Anointed is a word I could use, but you see these words I just put down tell you NOTHING of how it truly was... and even though I can't explain it, I will tell of the life changing words that Judah Smith, Russllle Evens (from Planet Shakers in Austraila) and Doug Lasset, Poncho Louder (yes that really is his name... don't laugh) gave that really shook me!

First - Poncho: The "Voices", now there is a catching phrase, the "voices" what does that mean? You may be wondering... think about all the "voices" we hear every day, now I'm not saying like a person voice, no I am talking about all the "voices" we hear on a day-to-day basis, "voices" that tell you how you should look (ow ouch right?) how many times do we as a generation look at a celebrity we like and think "wow I wishI looked like Him/Her?" or how about all the "Voices" that tell us how we should dress?? (another ow right?) or all the "Voices" that tell us the way we are "supposed" to act? (again ow) I mean think about it! how many times do we listen to these "voices"? Think with me about what if we listened to Gods' Voice insted of the worlds "Voices"? I know for me I would be listening to God alone, but because of the distraction we don't right? yeah, so here are some ways to listen to God: #1 Refuse to compromize your character, (dont give in to this world) #2 Position yourself in a place where you can hear the "Voice" of God! (don't mess around with things you know you shouldn't) #3 Build some external (talking to your pastor or parents about questions you may have or whatever) #4 Build some Internal filters (don't do what is wrong, and chosse to obey Gods Voice) and #5 Wait for Gods Perfect timing (so many times we are impatient with God and the say 'Oh God doesn't care about me because he didn't answer my prayer when [ I ] wanted Him to' don't) wait on the Lord!

well I will leave you with this and when I feel that the Lord tells me toI will talk about the next message that Russlle Evens gave, but for now I want you tp pray about this ^ and see what God has for you! Remember don't be impatient with God, wait, and listen! Thank you for reading this! Please really take this stuff to heart and don't let my typing and words go to waste!!!!!!

God is AMAZING

well, a while ago I was praying hard about what my name from the Lord was and on the Wednesday the 7th I was at church and the Holy Spirit was really really strong and Jess Flower asked every one no kneel and listen the God, so I did as did every body, and I heard a little while later...
"I'll be with you Little One," and at that I froze, because I had heard His voice, so I asked, "Lord, is that my name?" and I heard about a minute later, "yes" so because I didn't want it to be my head playing games on me I asked, "Lord confirm it for me father," I heard again "yes it is," but I was a little puzzled by the: Little One, because I wouldn't consider myself "Little" so I asked, "Lord... why Little One?" and before I could even get the last little bit of my question out I heard, "because you have a child like spirit," and after that He handed me a scroll, I don't know what it is or why He gave it to me but I know that He did, and I know that I have it somewhere in my heart, and I pray everyday so that I may at some point know what it is, but for the meantime, I am satisfied with the fact that I am God's Little One and that I am his Child and that he really does love me. I hope and pray that one day whom ever reads this will know that feeling of security and love, because it is incredible!
