The movie speaks!

I have watched the movie "Facing the Giants" for gazillion times already. But what really amazes me is the power of the Holy Spirit empowering the movie. Even though I watched it over and over again, still it speaks to me over and over again. The movie is really powerful.
As we watched the movie in our cell group, I can't stop tears rolling from my eyes because of the movie's message and heart - warming scenes. It reminds me of God's overwhelming power, awesomeness, and majesty. Bravo!

The words that rhema on my heart:

1. "Give me your very best. Don't quit on me!"

Living in this fallen world which brings catastrophe, pain, disappointment, hurts, pains, and unknown future, it is easy to give up. It is easy to quit. But there is God sitting on His throne as always. He will never be enthroned. His in control of everything! He is just asking to us not to quit on Him and give our very best. The outcome is in His hands. And you know what's good with God? 1Corinthians2:9-10 and Romans 8:28, everything works for the good of those who love Him.
Just give your best and don't quit on Him!

2. "Prepare for the rain!"

Let your actions show that you are expecting something good to happen. Let your words speak claiming that God is pouring His bountiful blessings on you. Let your heart jump on joy exclaiming God is good!

3." I will still love you even if you don't give my heart's desire," and ,"If we win, we praise God and if we lose,we Praise God."

It is easy to praise and love God if He's giving you all of your heart's desire. That's what satan told God about Job! Faith based on rewards and gifts are shallow. It's not about the gift, it is all about the Giver!
Love God above all else.
Praise God in dark times.
We will learn to be contented if we know that God is our Ultimate Satisfaction and nothing else and no one else. Amen!

4."God cares in all the aspects of your life. He cares where your heart is. If your heart and faith is on the football then He cares about it."

Surrender every tiny detail of your life to God for He is concern on all parts,facets, and aspects of your life. Not just the so - called "spiritual ones".
God cares about them.
God cares about you!

5. "If you think you will lose even before the game starts then indeed you will really lose," and, "Stop thinking inferior. Stop thinking mediocre.!"

The result of the battle can already be determined inside of our minds. Philippians 4:8 says,"Think of what is good,pure, holy, excellent,praise - worthy..."(Paraphrased).

6. Brock's death - crawl
Venturing this world gives you an uncertain future.Like Brock who can't seen where part of the field he is already,likewise,we can't also see what's going to happen in our lives and where part of journey are we already. But that's what the Bible says," Live by faith and not by sight". For me, if we already know what 's going to happen then we will not depend on God anymore. We want that feeling because we don't want to feel vulnerable and unstable. But that's not the reality. The reality is we are created to depend on God like appliances on electricity, like car on fuel, and like a baby to its mother. We need to depend on God and trust Him that He has a wonderful plan for our lives.











Thank you God for revealing such wonderful things to me. To God be the glory!
