LIGHT 2 the WORLD

"Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind..." Romans 12:2 The other day I was sharing this verse at our house fellowship. The Greek word used for transformed is  μεταμορφόω -->  metamorphoo. This same word is also used in Matthew 17:2 " There [Jesus] was transfigured... His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light." This is a picture of true transformation -->we are to be so transformed that "we all with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image [of Jesus] from one degree of glory to another" (2 Cor. 3:16). Let us begin to call Heaven's kingdom, glory and presence to earth and shine the same way Jesus did!  Michael teaching the youth from Baglun about WORSHIP.  Lately there has been many troubles in Nepal.

“If we are not full of Him we have nothing to offer to anyone else.” Heidi Baker Intimacy with the Lord brings fruitfullness. Jesus says, "I am the vine, you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." John 15:5 If we want to live a life that counts, if we want to "bear much fruit" the secret is living a life of intimacy. When we are connected to the vine, connected with the Lord, we will live a life that makes a true difference.  Gorkha Youth Retreat I encourage you to spend time with the Lord. Get in the Word.

Sunil lives on the streets of Kathmandu. Lord, show him your mercy and grace. Let us be your hands and your feet to set these captives FREE in Jesus Name.  This morning I shared at women's fellowship about Gideon...God called him to save his people from their stubborn oppressor- Midian...his response, "Please Lord, how can I save Israel? Behold, my clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house." Our destiny is somewhat similar to Gideon's...share the good news...set the captive free. Sometimes I feel like Gideon, "what can I do? how can I save these people from their evil spiritual oppressors?" God is speaking over us: "The Lord is with you, oh mighty man and woman of valor!" Yet, before Gideon could save his people he had to deal with a stronghold of his fathers house. He was commanded by the Lord to tear down the Baal and Asherah. Let us come before the Lord and ask Him to reveal any strongholds i...

In our time of prayer and I saw a glimpse of Jesus' hands holding small mustard seeds and a ball of glory. He was distributing these mustard seeds of faith to all who will receive...the purpose being to display His GLORY. Let us, with open hands, take and receive all that He is giving us! Let us be the manifest sons and daughters carrying HIS glory so the WORLD can see.  "And the apostles said unto the Lord, 'Increase our faith.' And the Lord said, 'If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.' " Luke 17:5-6 Michael recording a new song!! "Father to me"      This sweet lady lost her home in the earthquake. Now it is time to plant rice so they cannot begin to rebuild their new home.

Sharing the Gospel earlier this year at a school in India God loves you , He loves the whole world (John 3:16) and He created us to be His friend. We are separated from God because we SIN - we do bad things - we lie, we envy, we are greedy, we rebel and steal and gossip. Sin cannot be removed by doing good things (Ephesians 2:8).  Imagine if you stole something and the police caught you in your act. You would have to go before a judge to face a penalty. In the same way, because of our sin, we are guilty before God, our Judge and our penalty is death (Romans 6:23) and eternal separation. The Bible describes it as a "fiery furnace with weeping and gnashing of teeth" (Matthew 13:42). God loves us and wants us to be His close friend so He sent His Son, Jesus, to pay our penalty of death. Jesus is fully God and fully man (Hebrews 2:5-18). He lived a perfect life and never sinned (2 Corinthians 5:21). He  took our penalty of death by dying on a cross. He pai...
