Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king
the youths whom Jesus loves

- 11:25 PM, by the youth whom Jesus loves
Dear beloveds,
Here's a short summary of what was preached on Sunday by Pastor Brian Houston. For those of you who missed the service or sat through but didn't understand, he was basically saying that God has given to each of us a certain amount of influence (may be through our gifting or position) and not to despise it but be faithful to it because He can use it to bring glory to Him. He also reminds us not to lose sight of what God has placed in our hearts when we are faced with distractions in the form of opposition or attacks but to stay faithful to it. When what we are doing lines up with the dreams that God has put in our hearts and the words that we speak about it, great things will happen.
- Neh 8:4-6
- You have a platform – don’t underestimate the platform that you have
- Be a steward over the platform God has given to you
- Even an attack can become a testimony for God
- You have a platform:
- of purpose,
- of stature (elevated platform),
- that brings glory to God (being faithful to the platform) and
- has great impact and influence (a place where great things can happen)
- God uses people so don’t undervalue what is in your hands
- The statue of your platform will grow when you are faithful to it
- There is always a Hitler (represents opposition) in the crowd – don’t come down to his level or let his voice determine the way in which you live
- Jesus fulfilled God’s purpose by staying on the cross even when people were mocking and questioning Him
- “If you are the Son of God..” – the people questioned Jesus’ authority. Don’t let your authority as a child of God to be undermined.
- Neh 6: 1-3 God had given Nehemiah a dream to rebuild the wall but there were people trying to get him to come down.
- Distractions may come in the form of mindsets or values to cause you to stray from the bigness that is in your heart
- Some people never stepped up into the opportunities that they have
- Don’t let the fear of making a mistake stop you from taking the adventure of faith
- Psalm 45:1 When what you have in your heart, your platform and the words that you confess line up, it is powerful.
Be blessed! =)
Love,
Coach Mel
