COLLISION ALERT!

Pastor Brian Houston of Hillsong Church in Sydney, Australia opened up WOL's Catch His Fire Carry His Flame Conference this past Sunday night.

It was explosive. It was powerful. It was simple.

"To know Him (God) is to have a Collision with the unexpected." -P. Brian Houston

The passage that he taught out of was:

[John 9:1-9] NKJV

When we have an encounter with God, We should NEVER be the same. We should be unrecognizable. We should have a collision within our lives that changes it's current course.

This week is a week to encounter God, really seek that face to face with him & expect things to CHANGE. Don't forget the Dreams that he has put in your Heart or the Word that he has given you about your health, your finances, family, and everything else.

See you all Tuesday night as we welcome back to the Platform, Pastor Brian Houston!

IN THE NOW

"Faith has a timeframe = NOW" -Pastor Art Sepulveda

Hebrews 11:1 (New International Version) By Faith: ¹Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

It's time to live in the arena of NOW. God is the God of RIGHT NOW. Let's move now.

Faith Confidence

"When you understand how Faith works, a Faith confidence comes to your life in Gods faithfulness." -Pastor Art

1 John 5:14 (New International Version)

¹⁴This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.

PRO-CHOICE

Deuteronomy 30:19 (New Living Translation)

¹⁹ “Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live!

God is Pro-Choice. He will NEVER force you to do anything you don't want to do. He puts the power of 'choice' into your hands. He wants you to make the right decision in choosing to follow Him. Think about what you do before you do it & ask yourself: "What would Jesus do?". Never say that you 'Didn't have a Choice' - you always have a 'choice' in all that you do. Choose Life!

Unbreakable Love

Romans 8:38-39 (The Message)

^31-39So, what do you think? With God on our side like this, how can we lose? If God didn't hesitate to put everything on the line for us, embracing our condition and exposing himself to the worst by sending his own Son, is there anything else he wouldn't gladly and freely do for us? And who would dare tangle with God by messing with one of God's chosen? Who would dare even to point a finger? The One who died for us—who was raised to life for us!—is in the presence of God at this very moment sticking up for us. Do you think anyone is going to be able to drive a wedge between us and Christ's love for us? There is no way! Not trouble, not hard times, not hatred, not hunger, not homelessness, not bullying threats, not backstabbing, not even the worst sins listed in Scripture:

They kill us in cold blood because they hate you.
We're sitting ducks; they pick us off one by one.
None of this fazes us because Jesus loves us. I'm absolutely convinced that nothing—nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable—absolutely nothing can get between us and God's love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us.

SANCTUARY

SANCTUARY: Psalm 20:2 "May He send you help from the sanctuary & grant you support from Zion." Definition of Sanctuary: A sacred place where fugitives were formerly entitled to immunity from arrest. The devil considers you a fugitive & wants to imprison you for your past mistakes. When you serve God & give your talents to expanding His CHURCH, He will send you help & support from the CHURCH - His SANCTUARY.

Be a God-Pleaser

[Hebrews 11:6a amp]
But without faith it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to Him.

What does your Faith walk look like? If someone wrote a movie what would the storyline be? If someone wrote a song and produced a music video about your faith, what would it look like? What would the faith painting of your life look like?

What would God say when he watched your music video, the story of your life, would he be pleased when you brought your faith painting to him? Would he hang it up in his throne room?

Everything that you do, do it in Faith - whatever it is, do it in Faith.

Practice What we Preach

[1John 3v18 tmb]
"When We Practice Real Love"
My dear children, let's not just talk about love; let's practice real love. This is the only way we'll know we're truly, living in God's reality.

Love should not just be "talk" Love should be what we do daily, it should be an "action". We should practice walking in Love with our spouses, our children, our parents, co-workers, managers, customers, clients, other drivers on the road, etc. And if we do this, we'll know that we are actually living a God reality.

Amen.
