The most important things are learned in prayer.

Last night, I was in prayer and several thoughts came across my mind but this was the one that stood out to me.

1. How are we going to save the world if we can't reach our own cities.

A thought sent from God. Now personally, this hit me hard and straight through my heart! I've had the mentality that if I were to live in a different country, it'd be so much easier to bring souls to church!!! The truth of the matter is that if I can't even talk to people here, then how would I be able to talk to people there?? Every country has it's flaws and tough walls to break through to get people to go to church.

Mexico-the drugs wars and violence
Africa-idols
Egypt-mainly Muslim religion
Most Europe countries-fashion
Ireland-mainly Catholics

So many countries ran through my mind and the reasons why it was hard to witness. Several countries in the world wouldn't even allow us to preach the gospel of God.

I had to stop praying for awhile. This had to sink in. If I'm not winning souls here, how am I going to win souls in another country? Wow. Took my breath away. Tears were streaming down my face as God revealed this to me.

If you have even the slightest of a burden for souls, think about this and let it "sink in".

All I can say is, the most important things are learned in prayer.

Bible Quizzer

Umm.... I had no idea what I was getting myself into lol! This is my first year of Bible Quizzing and man! I love it!!!!! :D I can't wait to go to the competitions!! :D We have to learn over 400 verses but as Bro. Vick & Brendan said "Don't look at the numbers." It's easier when you don't look at numbers and you just memorize and go over them everyday!!! I'm so excited!!! It has motivated me to get done with schoolwork lol. I hope we have a good (NOOO, a GREAT!) team so we can go to more competitions. :) Fun & traveling! Which teams do you know that are awesome Bible Quizzers?? Do you have any tips for a first time BQ??? :)

Courage in the Altar

It takes courage to walk to the altar (a lot of the time). Especially when you are struggling and going through trials. Most of us feel embarrassed or have too much pride to cry in the altar, shout, or dance in the Spirit. It really does amaze me.. It's like we are intimidated by other women/men.. Have you ever noticed it? Courage: " have the courage of one's convictions, to  act   in accordance with one's beliefs, especially in spite of criticism." (dictionary.com) I've heard plenty of people say, "The day so&so shouts and runs the aisles is when I'll do it." I REALLY don't get it! Do these people not have the revelation of worship, praise, and not to care what others are going to think about them?? Sometimes, worship is a life or death situation. :/ Seriously. You won't give God 100% of your praise... You're holding back.. You won't let loose. The saints of God get victory through prayer and worship.
