But you have made me as strong as a wild ox. You have
anointed me with the finest oil.
Yesterday saw a turning point in my battle for my little
girl as God stepped in and changed what was designed to hurt or destroy me. Now
I will tell of my full testimony later and you will see how God moved in my
battle.
What I want to talk to you about is being rooted in a church
family. I have written about this before, but why I think it is so important
for me specifically is basically three things.
The first being the ability to worship God with fellow
Christians, two will be the work of the Holy Spirit in the service, the worship
and the message and finally it is the family. The people that are in my church
and my pastors. I if I was not planted in this church and experienced the Holy
Spirit plus the Word that is preached every Sunday, I would not have been where
I am now.
It is not just going to church, it going to be with my Lord and
experience Him in ways you would not have when you are at home or watching the
service online. My church and the people that I now have in my life plays a
vital role in my spiritual growth and in my resistance to the enemy and his
attacks.
In short, did I not get planted and rooted in my church I would
have been destroyed by now. I am part of CRC (Christian Revival Church) here in
South Africa and you are most welcome to check out our services, but it is strong
on my heart that I share this with you because I have seen how important it is
and how it builds you in what you have to face daily. I would not have received
the anointing that is on me and the power and boldness to share the gospel everywhere
I go and believe me when we do what Jesus so clearly told us to do, we grow in
our faith, and we get closer to God. God opens doors and He fights for us when
the enemy wants to destroy us.
That is why Psalm 92 is so profound today for I experience
what it says and believe me when I say, “in many aspects”. Go and read the whole
one and let the Holy Spirit open it to you as He will teach you and guide you.
Today I do not have a deep message, nor I am I breaking up
scripture, but what I am telling you will change your life and when it feels
there is no more left, you will receive power and you will see miracle after
miracle just as I saw yesterday.
Jesus is the name that should be on our lips all day. In our
ways and in our minds and in our thoughts and in everything we do. For His
glory.
I love you my friend and I pray that today God will open
doors for you that was shut and strengthen you when you are at your last. Uplift
you when you are down and restore that what you have lost. I pray that His grace
will overflow in you and that the Holy Spirit will fill you again and that you
will find a good church family if you have not yet. To God all the glory and
all the praise in Jesus name.
