Yeshua Hamashia - Santa Geracao
second video I made, to a song I heard when I was in Brazil...It talks about God's love for us and everything he's done!
Words can't express how grateful I am everytime I think where I (We) could be if It wasn't for his sacrifice! May God Bless you!

All In ( Letting Go) TobyMac
I'm actually getting good at this...hahahah...if not, I'm at least enjoying it! Anyways...I think these videos are a powerful tool to preach the Gospel and that's what matters the most.
This song in particular has so much meaning to me, because that's exactly what i feel right now and ever since I decided not to hold back and go HEART first with Christ! I hope you enjoy it...God Bless! L.

Check this out...
If you had the fear ( just like I did) of allowing Jesus to work in EVERY aspect or area in your life or still have that feeling...read this:
Have you deliberately committed your WILL to Jesus Christ?
It is a transaction of the will, not of emotion; any positive emotion that results is simply a superficial blessing arising out of the transaction.
If you focus your attention on the emotion, you will never make the transaction. Do not ask God what the transaction is to be, but make the determination to surrender your will regarding whatever you see, whether it is in the shallow or the deep, profound places internally.

Best way of Witnessing, is to witness in the Character of Christ.
3 Things Jesus did as a Witness:
Jesus always treated everyone as God’s highest creature.
You’ve never heard Jesus say things derogatory towards anybody, when he looked at a somebody, he saw a person before a sinner
What made Jesus so approachable, was he way HE approached people.
Always with Grace and Truth.
How could he love Judas? He washed Judas’ feet
Because Jesus, has a wider vision, This person has a purpose in God’s plan. We need to have this vision also.
His Words Save, never alienate.
Jesus ALWAYS gave himself first
We got to break away from our comfort zone!
Live your life according to what the LORD has designed for you!
Jesus was always an advocate, a witness!
Satan, stands (means) “adversary”.
How many times us as Christians stand as WITNESS instead of ADVERSARY?
The key to the last example, is to approach in an unforeseen angle.
“Break the ice”, “Be kind”
Approach people, from an “unforeseen angle of elevation”.
Jesus treated the Samaritan woman, just like any other woman.
Live a life led by the Spirit, NOT doctrines.
Sunday april 8th
The importance of Worshipping and Witnessing.
Both things are essential.
The doing of witnessing – Acts 1 -8
How is our God being portraited?
Witness and Testify the incredible largness of being God’s creatures.
The World expects us to be “Moral Police.”
What if we come in an “unexpected angle”.
How Large is Jesus in us?
We are born to be witnesses, born with a compelling passion within.
It’s a real blessing to Witness
Watchman Nee once saind:
“The two happiest days in a Christian’s life is the day they are saved and the day they lead somebody to Salvation in Jesus Christ”
Get people in the “Witness zone”, The Holy Spirit is not only for our own consumption.
WALK BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT.
Is Jesus, The Lord of your boat? If So, believe he’s LEAD you to that place.
If Jesus is not leading, than He’s NOT your Lord.
Follow the Spirits leading,it’s not hard to follow the leading and make sure you follow the WILLING.
Conduct yourself with Wisdom.
“Unexpected angle” = Seasoned food
Chinese people, call “non Christians” as “Gospel Friends”, that is an example of an Unexpcted angle;
Witnessing includes Sacrificing things you are accustomed to.
If Jesus Christ who is God, died for me, than there isn’t too big of a sacrifice We can do for him.
The Door waits before us, are you ready?

Jose...Jose...

Hoje, durante o meu devocional...O senhor falou profundamente ao coracao.
Como algums ja sabem, fiz o alvo de ler novamente a Biblia...estou seguindo o meu proprio "plano de leitura", no qual se resume em ler capitulos de um especifico livro, algum Salmo ou Proverbio e alguma carta de Paulo;
Devido ao fato de querer dar sequencia ao Torah (5 primeiros livros da Biblia), estou ainda em Genesis.
Cheguei a parte do livro relativa a Jose, e me maravilho porque vemos como a palavra do Senhor esta sempre se renovando.
Pude notar como o plano do Senhor e perfeito...um exemplo claro disso(dentre varios na vida e trajetoria de Jose), foi que quando jogado no poco...talvez no momento, fosse apenas "uma pessoa dentro do poco"...mas nos planos do Senhor, era o inicio de uma trajetoria de como o Senhor iria dar continuacao a decendencia de seu povo, a trajetoria de alguem que nao se abalou pelas circunstancias mas manteve o seu olhar fixo (Unicamente atraves da Fe) no "Alvo".
Essa passagem (de Jose ter sido jogado no poco), talvez pelo fato dos acontecimentos em minha vida nos ultimos meses, me tocaram profundamente;Sinto como se as vezes, estivesse tambem sido jogado dentro de um poco; No entanto, vejo Jose como um grande exemplo...nao vou olhar pra circunstancia...mas sempre acreditar, que existe um Deus que ja esta olhando la na frente e que isso...e apenas uma "virgula" no seu proposito.
Que o Senhor continue nos abencoando e fortalecendo a nossa fe!

One of my favorite Psalms...(Psalm:139)
For the leader. A psalm of David. O LORD, you have probed me, you know me:
2
2 you know when I sit and stand; you understand my thoughts from afar.
3
My travels and my rest you mark; with all my ways you are familiar.
4
Even before a word is on my tongue, LORD, you know it all.
5
Behind and before you encircle me and rest your hand upon me.
6
Such knowledge is beyond me, far too lofty for me to reach.
7
Where can I hide from your spirit? From your presence, where can I flee?
8
If I ascend to the heavens, you are there; if I lie down in Sheol, you are there too.
9
3 If I fly with the wings of dawn and alight beyond the sea,
10
Even there your hand will guide me, your right hand hold me fast.
11
4 If I say, "Surely darkness shall hide me, and night shall be my light" --
12
Darkness is not dark for you, and night shines as the day. Darkness and light are but one.
13
You formed my inmost being; you knit me in my mother's womb.
14
I praise you, so wonderfully you made me; wonderful are your works! My very self you knew;
15
5 my bones were not hidden from you, When I was being made in secret, fashioned as in the depths of the earth.
16
Your eyes foresaw my actions; in your book all are written down; my days were shaped, before one came to be.
17
How precious to me are your designs, O God; how vast the sum of them!
18
Were I to count, they would outnumber the sands; to finish, I would need eternity.
19
If only you would destroy the wicked, O God, and the bloodthirsty would depart from me!
20
Deceitfully they invoke your name; your foes swear faithless oaths.
21
Do I not hate, LORD, those who hate you? Those who rise against you, do I not loathe?
22
With fierce hatred I hate them, enemies I count as my own.
23
Probe me, God, know my heart; try me, know my concerns.
24
6 See if my way is crooked, then lead me in the ancient paths.
2
2 you know when I sit and stand; you understand my thoughts from afar.
3
My travels and my rest you mark; with all my ways you are familiar.

Even before a word is on my tongue, LORD, you know it all.

"The inescapable spiritual need each of us has is the need to sign the death certificate of our sin nature. I must take my emotional opinions and intellectual beliefs and be willing to turn them into a moral verdict against the nature of sin..." by Oswald Chambers
...........................................
"You may well have light and truth, but knowledge alone will benefit you nothing." by Watchman Nee
....................................................................................
(Matthew 7:13,14)
"Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it."
by Jesus Christ

Oswald Chamber's point of view regarding ABRAHAM'S LIFE OF FAITH

He went out, not knowing where he was going —Hebrews 11:8
In the Old Testament, a person’s relationship with God was seen by the degree of separation in that person’s life. This separation is exhibited in the life of Abraham by his separation from his country and his family. When we think of separation today, we do not mean to be literally separated from those family members who do not have a personal relationship with God, but to be separated mentally and morally from their viewpoints. This is what Jesus Christ was referring to in Luke 14:26 .
Living a life of faith means never knowing where you are being led. But it does mean loving and knowing the One who is leading. It is literally a life of faith, not of understanding and reason— a life of knowing Him who calls us to go. Faith is rooted in the knowledge of a Person, and one of the biggest traps we fall into is the belief that if we have faith, God will surely lead us to success in the world.
The final stage in the life of faith is the attainment of character, and we encounter many changes in the process. We feel the presence of God around us when we pray, yet we are only momentarily changed. We tend to keep going back to our everyday ways and the glory vanishes. A life of faith is not a life of one glorious mountaintop experience after another, like soaring on eagles’ wings, but is a life of day— in and day— out consistency; a life of walking without fainting (seeIsaiah 40:31 ). It is not even a question of the holiness of sanctification, but of something which comes much farther down the road. It is a faith that has been tried and proved and has withstood the test. Abraham is not a type or an example of the holiness of sanctification, but a type of the life of faith-a faith, tested and true, built on the true God. "Abraham believed God. . ." ( Romans 4:3 ).
