Purpose?

Purpose... a simple word, yet many people's future and destiny hinges on them. And the sadest fact of it is that many people dont even realized that they are living an aimless, mediocre life. To realize at the age of 40 that you have wasted the first half of you life is really a sad sight, but yet, this is the reality befalling many people here today.

Let us be a person of purpose! Let us have a vision to run for! A race to run and a goal to attain! Let us not waste our life this year!

So ask yourself this.. What is your purpose for your existance? Will you make a difference? Have you made an impact in the lives of the people around you?

Lets rise up to the Upward Call of God! LEts run the race.. Together.. And make a difference in the lives of the people around us.. LEt this be our purpose! To do the will of God in our generation!

How much pain your heart can take?

How much pain can a person's heart take? I am not talking about the physical pain which our frail heart can take, but about the heart break in which our heart can experience. At the beginning of the year, was going through some emotional problems and all and felt my heart aching a fair bit. Was just wondering, why would the heart be pain and grief? Is there a scientific explanation for this?

Anyway, I was just thinking, if emotional heartaches could casue one's heart to feel much pain, just imagine how much pain we inflicted upon Jesus and the Holy Spirit everytime we commit a sin. Bible says that the Holy Spirit grieves..... hmm.... imagine the agony we casued Him. Really really heart wrenching stuff here... imagine you are so deeply in love with someone and you went through heaven and hell to be with that person and at the end of the day..-bam- breakup! can you imagine the emotional trauma and pain that you will be going through. Take that pain and multiply it by 100, thats the pain the Holy Spirit will be feeling everytime we grieve Him.

To take it further, how about when you are together with someone for eternity, and you do everything together, basically inseperable, and all of a sudden, seperation occurs. The heart will ache so badly that you would just want to die! But yet that is how Jesus felt when He took upon all the sins of humanity upon His shoulders and casue Father God to turn away and for a moment for God to reject Him. The anguish and the pain Jesus felt must have been excruciating to be seperated from the one He have been with since the beginning. The pain Jesus had to suffer at that moment, was more painful then the scourging done by the roman soldiers. But for the call of His life, He have to go to the cross and endure the most painful pain He could ever have felt.

So, how much pain can your heart take? Jesus went through the greatest heartbreak and is reunited with Father God, so please dont make Him go back to the cross again for another heart break! So think twice before sinning! The heartbreaks of the Holy Spirit and Jesus are indeed unbearable!

So can our heart take the pain?

What is your message for this year?

Nor do they put new wine into old wineskins, or else the wineskins break, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But they put new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved."
Matthew 9:17
We all need a new wine skin to be pour our new wine into. Just as our previous revelation is for a previous circumstance, we need a revelation for our current circumstance. To think that the rhema which God gave to us for a previous circumstance can work again is foolhardy, as the rhema is for a specific situation, hence we need to seek the Lord continually to receive the word. Every new year, requires a new consecration a new anointing a new revelation. Every new month, every new week, every new day requires a fresh oil from heaven to fill us.
Hence, i am constantly thinking... what revelation is the Lord giving to me this year... what is the message in which the Lord wants me to carry this year... I guess... the burden which came upon me this year was not to let the youths waste their year away on prodigal living, but to build their lives on the strong foundations of Jesus.
So what is your message for this year?
