hmmm..feels like God is trying to bring me to see a certain matter. like in the previous post i mentioned that as i was reading the post the Bro KC wrote and how i was thinking along the line of we ought to be inpacting the world that we are living in. seems like God is preparing us for a new season and movement that He has in stall. from the msg during Emerge! and also the FOP and now Dr. Bernard- he really brought a word of God that blows your mind away. am totally looking forward to the next 2 sessions in the remaining of this weekend. some of the things that he mentioned today:
1. You are limited in life to the knowledge of your own mind and the content of your character.
2. Specificity is the basis of collaboration.
3. The church is the agent to reveal God to the world.
4. Vision will determine the method but the method does NOT determine the vision.
5. Relationship preceed Ministry.
6. We cannot lead the pepole we fear.
7. Knowledge translate into authority.
8. symbiosis- living together in close association of 2 totally dis-similar entities.
9. If we have a vision and cannot articulate it - no one will support it.
10. Generality always degenerate into vainty.
what impacted us of cos is not jus these pure words but the authority that he speak with and of cos the conviction brought by the holy spirit in the hall during the whole time that he was speaking. We gotta all be the prophetic voice such like Joseph and Daniel. indeed we have been Educated, Encouraged and Empowered after today's session.
prior to this, i was also pondering over some thing that we were talking about in today media and globalisation lecture. there was this part about like how like the music industry and the movie industry used to resist the evolving media- they tired to fight it but they failed. this generation that grew up not having to pay for music will not do so unless there is a reason for them to. hence, instead of trying to fight it, join it. players are now involved in being in the midst of this whole cultural change and see how they can influence the people from within. i think this is what God wanted SUN to do with her cross-over project (and man she is real good). the churches today are avoiding the world becos they are resisting the influence of it- afraid that being in the world will make them to be like the world. but we gotta be like a Daniel and a Joseph- that we will be right in the midst of it all yet not of the world. the only way that you can influnce is when you have the knowledge and the authority to do so. how do you have the knowledge if you run away from technology all the time? God is indeed ahead of time- He already had the end in mind when he spoke to SUN 5 years ago and now the timing is jus right. woah. can you imagine that? woah.
they shall look and see and they will be amazed and say "who else like them have a God who is so close to them?"
if you teach tuition, the worse kind of student that you can get is like the one that i have. i know that i sldnt be complaining but he is really getting on my nerves. my whole week of tuition are all cancelled and here not only goes my income but i have to go through the pain of arging with him all the time. i dont think that this is effective. really make you ponder- more than twice about going into teaching- i guess i am jus not cut out to go through all those crap. haiz.
