Dudes, going with the colloquial language tonight.Today I was talking on the phone about God's favour. About being obedient to God even when others don't approve of what you're doing or don't understand or get misconceptions of you....I was perceived to be lazy in not finding a job, but God's been teaching me over the last year that there were more important things to focus on and that jobs

Following on from last night's conversation, I thought I'd write something here for other people to read because I feel its relevant at this point in time.I often say, don't put God in a box. But that's hard to avoid. we are, after all, human. Imperfections and all. but there are things to remember that let God out of the box and this is one of them.I keep thinking about the example of trees...

So I pulled out this verse from Nehemiah right, out of nowhere and it very much reminds me of that Deut passage (I think?) but its no random thing that I found it.Nehemiah is this dude talking to God basically about how faithful He has been to Israel, even though they haven't been always."But in your great mercy you did not abandom them to die in the wilderness. The pillar of cloud still led them

Over the past few months, I've often thought to myself, all through my life, there's been this trend of getting at least one thing/discipline/etc downpat at any one time.... but then somehow, I've lost the plot, lost focus for a moment in time and after I fall down, or not even really fall, just take my eye of the mark for a sec, I've not picked up where I've left off and instead taken the harder

So anyways, the other night I went to bed really early for a "nap"...... what was a nap turned into the night's sleep! lol. and I woke up at around 3am, hungry and stuff and pretty much wide awake.Well..... as it turns out, I turned the tv on while I was eating for some reason (even though I knew nothing would be on (c'mon! it was like 3am in the morning! infomercial time!))What was on tv?

Following on from last night...Here's what Joyce says..."Are you doing what I used to do? Are you so busy trying to figure out the future that in the process you are becoming more and more confused? If so, you are getting the same result from reasoning beyond the point of sensible planning that everyone else gets - confusion!

A few things stood out to me which I wanted to share.Check this out, it's joyce meyer speaking..."Then God began dealing with me about the call on my life and about preparing for it.

I feel that so many times I look in the mirror and ask myself, who is that girl staring back in the mirror? Who is it?And I've been just trying to get to the bottom of it all...I am me. no one else is the same as me and no one else will ever be the same as me. But there's times when, for some weird reason, I decide I'm turning into my friends or my family... and it's those times that I looking

To start something assumes that one day you will finish that something. I start a very many things, and yet end up finishing very few things. And I feel it in my life. I know that I have uncomplete things. Everyone says stuff about finishing what you start, but I guess the words have become desensitised to me of late. I have incomplete emails in my inbox. Why? Because I've started so many times

We've done this thing of sport comparisons quite a bit, but let's do it again hey. I've just had this constant repetitive voice in my head saying "post this!"

here's something for you to chew on... I don't smoke, and I don't drink alcohol (surprised?!) And yet, I sit here and in my possession I have a lighter and a bottle opener. Let me explain. I have them for work as I have found out that when you need either of these particular items, they inevitably go "missing". This would be ok for me, except that I have to open bottles of wine for customers

I honestly didn't think too many people were watching me, checking out my life, checking that I'm who I say I am... That's not to say that I am not who I say I am, just that I have not been aware just how many people I come into contact with each day. And to each one, I am someone who they talk to, someone they are learning about. It's becoming more and more clear to me that God's given me such

Something just occurred to me. And I thought to share. Worship leaders have been revolutionising the world for centuries, even for millenniums. We think these days of traditional and contemporary worship… what was traditional worship many centuries ago? That’s right, it was contemporary. Worship leaders, songwriters – they’ve developed and created a “new” song. In Psalms, it’s often mentioned

I don't know what I'm doing here. All I know, is that I felt compelled when I logged on to write a few emails to friends tonight, to bring up this page (for the first time in like a month) and then to click the "create new post" button.

I just opened me Bible to Jeremiah 10:10 and read this... "But God is the real thing - the living God, the eternal king. When He's angry, Earth shakes. Yes, and the godless nations quake." (The Message) And it's like, God's saying to me afresh that He's the real thing! Like, I remember hearing this illustration about coke.

There really is no excuse for not living the life that God has purposed for you to live. The words, "I can't" don't exist. But the words, "I won't" unfortunately do. I was reminded of this guy I met at hillsong conference this year. His name is Nick, and he has no arms and no legs. And yet, that isn't something he uses as an excuse to sit around and do nothing all day... instead, he has become

God's been opening my eyes to how much words used today have lost their meaning, and in fact, some words that weren't accepted in society, now have been reinvented to mean something positive... however, that initial negative meaning is still at the words roots so to speak. You just have to listen to a conversation in a public high school to realise that words have lost their meaning. I think

Some people I know would tell you that trust is believing someone when they give you their word about something... Others I know would say that trust is a risk...

Just opened my bible to Luke 5 and peters been fishing all night and not caught a thing, but Jesus tells him to put his nets down in the deep water. And he just obeys and pulls in the biggest catch ever. I just so feel that God is saying to me and maybe victory in general – you’ve been trying so hard to get your friends saved, talking to them, inviting them to stuff... But nothings happening.

I was inspired tonight as I talked to Ian. Like, I was a little in a crazy mood on the phone and stuff, but he told me about his and a group of guys' fast from tv, net etc... and I was reminded of how much discipline it takes to take on a fast and stuff... It's so hard to explain, but I wanted to write on here that all the guys doing it are champs! I have this huge passion hey, to spur them on!

I know that God wanted me to write this up, to give a bit of “history” if you like… And as I sit here, my mind wants to give you a complete comprehensive detailing of everything I remember, but I know that all I’ve been called to do is to give a brief summary.

Something I was going to write in my journal, but felt I needed to write it here first: I really feel that of late, that all too familiar clutter has started to creep back into my life. Filling up life with stuff just for the sake of doing something, not actually for any real purpose. And it's so much of a waste. All this time I'm "using" is time that I'm actually wasting.

well, after meeting for breakfast i was stirred about the how religious we are and all. but since then, after meeting with everyone a few times i know i dont need to be saying anything here. just that i so feel that God is saying that there is going to be absolutely nothing religious about this revolution that is comming. its just simply going to be His people, doing life together His way. we so

Had a God Whisper to post something so here it is! About 3 years ago, at Hillsong (the year that Blessed was released), I challenged God. Of course, at the time I didn't think that God woud take up my challenge, but I was fully wrong and got a huge surprise at the end of conference. My challenge to God was this: "God, I want to do something big, I'm ready... do something that I won't expect at

1. God's been telling me that it's like I'm a plane and He's been taxiing me these past few months to align me with the runway so I can take off and fly... and over these next few weeks, God's gonna start me off down that runway, building up speed as I go so that I can successfully take off on October 2nd and SOAR!!! 2. God's been giving me visions of amazing amazing scenes. Gorgeous pictures

And yesterday at work in my break I had some dinner and then God said to go outside for a walk and I walk past the sanity shop and they’ve got switchfoot playing!! Again – it’s the second time ive heard it. And so I go inside the shop and im talking to the dude about how ive known the band for years and that im stoked that theyre finally making it big and stuff. And as im walking back to work

Steve Porter, my spiritual mentor and friend, wrote this in one of his books, "Crocodile Meat"... THE SHADRACH, MESHACH, AND ABEDNEGO GENERATION "When you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze." Isaiah 43:2 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, were three Jewish refugees from Jerusalem who

I was challenged to look back at the last weeks posts and you know what, God's been saying the same thing to us over the last week through many different illustrations and stuff and we keep writing it down obediently, but God's there just going, "When is all the stuff I'm telling you and instructing you to do, going to be planted in your heart?"

Mark 4:36-40 Leaving the crowd, they (the disciples) took Him along with them in a boat, just as He was; and other boats were with Him. And there arose a fierce gale of wind, and the waves were breaking over the boat so much that the boat was already filling up. Jesus Himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke Him and said to Him, "Teacher, do You not care that we are

I had a revelation today while writing in my journal... this is what I wrote... "I am fully one of those people who has attempted to change the past on more than one occasion. It’s like, I decided I wasn’t satisfied with the past and instead of learning lessons so I didn’t go back there again, I felt that I needed to go back to the past and fix it up. But you can’t change what’s already been.

Had I been asked a month ago if I’d ever read a book about relationships, I would have gone no way. Was it because I was repelled by such books? No. What it was – was this false perception that I didn’t need to read such books. That those kind of books were just gonna tell me what I already knew. Was that the right perspective for me to have, the right outlook? No. I found myself picking up

i just feel God is so impressing apon me the notion of speed - that He wants to speed this whole thing up, speed up what He's doing in our lives. have less down time, less wasted time, less waiting, just foot down flat out going for it. and i feel alot has to do with how much we limit him. hes saying get rid of the notion of sticking to the speed limits, i can and want to take you way faster

Get this, I found a notebook that I filled up with poems and songs in 2001 (the year that I was full on writing everyday constantly throughout the day), and I found this one thing I wrote and it’s called Rise up (in the army of God)... and I wrote underneath it "words of God, An inspirational song"...

12/9/04 Yesterday was one of those days. Those days when you feel tired for some reason and don’t really shake it off. And God revealed to me why it was. I am awakened by the Word of God, by prayer and by quiet time with Him – my Father. And yesterday I didn’t have enough of that. I was slack. And I suffered the consequences. All day I could have changed it, had I just opened up my Bible and

i was just at work the other day and i wrote down all this stuff Godwas speaking to me, mostly concerning the fast, or rather the postfast period. ill quote it exactly: "POST FAST -speed, up the tempo, flatout doing everthing you've called me, notime to sit around watching. be. - write, sing, design, create, make-immerse yourself in your work + God + relationships -run. the fast has been

God's just been showing me that tv has no place in my life. absolutely no place. and i was like 'but God, what about all those times you spoke to me through what i saw on tv?' and He just reminded me that everytime he spoke to me through tv he was just saying the same thing over and over - that i should turn it off and go and live life.

That's where we're fully at! You know how in Matt 18 it talks about who is the greatest? And how Jesus responds that those who are like children who receive His name are the greatest... Well God's been telling me that so much in the church everyone has fully become all about the traditions, all about the programs like youth and cells, all about the stuff that you can touch and feel and do...

* The day that people around will truly know that you've changed. * The day you let reputation go once and for all and take a stand for your future! * The day when you claim back your heritage and go crazy for God. * The day that God shifts the revolution from your head, your heart, your visions - to the physical. * The day you will feel something new, when God will open our eyes to more

God's been challenging me to outline exactly what my new norms will be so I will be accountable to them and so I have decided to outline them here and please ask me about them every now and then coz I need accountability! - Eat healthy (based on fresh fruit and veg. God will provide treats, so only have them when offered) - Only watch tv sometimes with my family and friends to maintain

last night was a night of breakthrough for me. Breakthrough in the way that I cried out to God, breakthrough because I was 100% positive that God was telling me to cry out to Him! After the opening of the doors, God's been telling me that He's gonna open those doors more and more the more I cry out! And so I cried out with all I had and I felt something break! It's crazy I know, but I still

So this is what God did - the door He opened about 5 hours ago! Before: I was going to need $200+ to go to the Call on plane, there and back. And then I was going to need accommodation and transport to and from the airport. I was going to have to be allowed to be away from my parents on our holiday for 3 days. And above all else, I was going to need my parents approval as they hadn't heard

From the MSN Encarta Dictionary departure: a departure or going out or away from a place that involves large numbers of people [Pre-12th century. Via ecclesiastical Latin “(biblical Book of) Exodus” from Greek, literally “way out,” from hodos “way, road.”] From some random website that God told me to go to... this one that was about this Skate group called the Exodus Revolution! How good?!

And so on Sunday God's tellin me to reread parts of this book - A young woman after God's own heart... He tells me page numbers and I look. And they are all about making a prayer list with a list of people in your life to pray for which is everyone in my life and so I haven't even put a dint in the list I have to create, and then a list of 'desires of my heart' and stuff happening in my life...

and again and again and again I hear that voice... "Don't limit me!" And you know what, I'm always going, nah, I don't limit God... But God's really opening my eyes to how I do! Incidently, the other week when I was driving, I decided that I would drive with God... like this time, it was on purpose, and you know what, in situations I would usually have no idea what to do, I drove through them

I had this revelation in church on Sunday. Every Sunday my church has communion. It took me a little getting used to because it wasn't normal for me to take communion all the time. God's been teaching me that communion isn't limited to being something that happens at church, but that everytime we drink, we should remember what Jesus did for us! Also, at the beginning of the fast I heard God's

And thinkin', you wouldn't be online and there wouldn't be anything new since I last checked the blog because of music practice etc, and God has fully gone again, "Don't limit me, my precious daughter!"

God brought to my mind Revelation 3:16, about how God will spit us out of His mouth if we are lukewarm... And I feel that He told me it because there is a huge tendency to go from strength to strength until something goes wrong. And suddenly we go from being hot to being lukewarm. We start to feel uncertain about God and about life. But God is fully telling me yet again that it's better to be

In Exodus 33 - Moses and God have a chat. This is just after the whole thing of the israelites worshipping the golden calf... In verse 12, God says, "I have known you by name, and you have also found favour in my sight." In verse 13, Moses says, "...if I have found favour in Your sight, let me know Your ways that I may know You, so that I may find favour in Your sight." It's interesting to me

Exodus 34:29-35 When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the Testimony in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiant because he had spoken with the LORD. When Aaron and all the Israelites saw Moses, his face was radiant, and they were afraid to come near him. But Moses called to them; so Aaron and all the leaders of the community came

God's been teaching me that there shouldn't be a focus on falling down... if we forget to do something one day that He's told us to do daily, or if, for some reason we don't get all the time that God has told us to give Him for whatever reason (like a few times I slept through my alarm!), God's saying, I'm not a God who is a pharisee.

I've been realising of late, how much I am not like my friends at school. They seem so distant all of a sudden now that my eyes have been opened. I so feel a responsibility to be different from all of them who had an encounter at planetshakers with God but then have kind of forgotten about it. God is fully saying that I haven't had enough time to build relationship with them, nor will I have that

I've been daily praying through the armour of God like a good little christian (na, i shouldnt be sarcastic- its been the best thing for me!) and I've noticed that all the pieces of armour are described as physical things (ie helmet, sword, belt etc), all except for the footwear "feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace". and God was just saying to me that there was a

God is fully working right now. Today, God prompted me to check my hotmail accnt which I hardly ever do. And so I check it (just after I sent you an email about the people in the team) and who else but Ian had emailed me!

I really feel that a recap of the main things from last nights phone convo have to be posted. And after this I have some more exciting stuff to post! ok, this was the main stuff God told me to put down. The idea that there will be more than one concert. It will be regular. It will be a way to bless people, organisations and churches in our local community, sometimes with our name attached to it

So I'm ready to go to sleep and God's whispering in my ear... "you've forgot something." and I remember that I learnt a valuable lesson tonight, I learnt many, but there's this one lesson of great importance. I was thinking about the fast and the different "phases" so to speak. like, there's 4 phases, every block of 10 days. and so the other day I sorta called it, "the last phase" kinda like

Forgot to tell you something.. Today at lunchtime was the first time in my life that I've eaten salad! I know, it's a bit sad that I only start now right?! But I have just not liked the smell of salad and stuff. I still don't like salad really, but now at least I've eaten some and will eat more now! my parents were amazed. they took me out for a celebration lunch of my trial being done! So

I’m inspired to live again Coz You breathed life Into these dry bones I will not fade away In this dark and dingy world Coz You sparked a flame Within me Everything seems so superficial Everything except You You’re the inspiration that spurs me on Daddy You picked me up when I was down I exist because of You For You are the rock on which I stand And when the world gets darker Your light shines

tomorrow i have my legal hsc trial.. and where my friends are panicked, for once in my life, i have this real peace inside that everything will be fine. this is incredible because yesterday i didn't really have any time to study and today i have felt a little sick, mostly just a bad headache that is nearly a migrain. but i know that God is speaking to me through it. for me, it is amazing to be

An addition to what I was talking about sin the other day.. Jesus dealt with condemnation when He said such things as, "He who is without sin, cast the first stone." This morning my pastor talked about maintaining blessing. About a very important question. Do we want to be right or do we want to be reconciled?! A lot of times, if we are right, we let everyone know, even in times of dispute

This morning after church, I decided I was going to open up my Bible to Matt. 6... I was thinking about the whole, "how much more will God clothe us" thing and out of curiosity, I wanted to know the exact verse and wording because I'd never really known the number and stuff. I'd heard it on ads heaps of times.. You've seen the ad haven't you? Well, I remember it from that mostly... So I opened

"Where there is no vision, the people perish." Proverbs 29:18 Vision weaves 4 essential things into our daily living... 1. Passion 2. Motivation 3. Direction 4. Purpose If we didn't have vision, we would go through life and at the end, go "What have a achieved?" And if we have vision, we would go through life and at the end, go "I achieved..." I learnt in my devos this morning that vision

Out of the blue, God puts the words of a song that I sang AGES ago in my head... a song that a learnt about 2 years ago at a music camp I went to for the salvos, it was a combined vocals song and it relates so much to what I am about to say. "He knows my name, He knows my every thought, He sees each tear that falls and hears me when I call!" How much does that relate to what God's been saying

just been shopping and i had to write this down. ive just been blown away once again by how much God knows every detail about me and how he so wants to bless me and provide stuff for me and put a smile on my face. for some reason God every now and then puts these desires in my head for certain items of clothing that i want and so i go down to vinnies and the desires so strong i just know He's got

So I turn on realplayer... I have it on this playlist of all worship stuff.. and what song is on there?! Send me of course. I should have realised, it was the last song I listened to, but the significant thing is that did you know if you revise something twice within 24hrs you have a better chance of remembering it?! I keep hearing that in legal studies. But it occurred to me today that it

*What is God saying to me?! So far I have tried posting this 4 times and it's come up but the formatting has been wrong. I know that God wants me to write this in the blog, but something is definitely missing. I must stop and wait upon God.* I know what it is. I am to post this a little later on.

A few verses from 1 John 3 (The message)... "People conceived and brought into life by God don't make a practice of sin. How could they? God's seed is deep within them, making them who they are. It's not in the nature of the God-begotten to practice and parade sin." God fully opened this up to me when I was reading the same chapters I had read at school in my NASB at lunchtime, this arvo in the

Only now, while I am sitting here do I realise all that God is saying. I mean, He’s been talking for ages but it was like He was talking to a brick wall at one stage and then I had tunnel vision and only heard stuff through a certain tunnel.. But now, I’m hearing from every direction and listening intently and carefully. You were fully spot on in saying that the revolution isn’t it. It’s just a

just a little addition to that bit i talked about the other day from dueteronomy where God is saying to not forget him when things are going well and He is blessing us. i dont know about you but for me this is such an issue cause i tend to avoid thanking God puplicly cause it sounds so corny. but the reality and truth is that it is God whos doing all this, He is the one whos brought us together

i know that it is no coincidence that God has us fasting from tv right when the olympic games are on. its been real good for me to not be caught up in it all, to be able to stand back and view it from above, from Gods perspective. for the first time in my life professional sport seems so frivolus, so insignificant. it seems like a kind of pre-life, preparation for the real business things people

I guess God really wanted me to write this once and for all. I could be coming back. I can write this because it's anonymous and we haven't shared this site with anyone else because it is not the time. This could fully everything upside down hey?! God's been saying that He knows that I needed to tell someone and so that someone is you who I trust not to say anything. I mean, you may have

I did my devos this morning.. and what were they about, but patience! "Patient endurance is what you need now, so you will... receive all... He has promised." Hebrews 10:36 God taught me a lesson that I needed to be taught. A lesson in patience. Patience is not just waiting, but it's how you wait. It's about keeping a good attitude while you are waiting. For me, God was telling me that lately

God really has been telling me today that there is another side to what you said last night. About the time around 1999 and what was happening with you and worship and God and stuff... That side is mine. In 1999 I had just moved to Newcastle - to Adamstown Heights to be more exact, from Narellan. Narellan, if you don't know where it is, is about 45min drive or so from Sydney, near Campbelltown

I’m sitting here, ready to begin this main thing that God’s been saying to me today. Ok, I’m gonna try and be as concise as possible, but when I say concise well, you probably know what I mean now! Lol 1. the passage in Deuteronomy was so much what I needed to hear! I fully believe everything you said. So many times I look at the bigger picture but forget the smaller things, it's so much about

First up, Gods tellin me that I have to tell you about my day. Not in detail but just a few specific things! I praise God and give Him all the glory for what He's done today! Last night I was doing my tourism assessment, remember? Well... I had to log off and keep my commitment to my parents to go to bed at 11.30pm so that's what I did. Trusting God that He'd come through for me today because I
