Journal for Biblical World View
This was the statement:
God has done a lot in our class in the last 7 days. Friday was a time wher we were challeneged to confess our sin to one another. Through the week Pete has taught us about Biblical World View and Cross Cultural situations. Tuesday we had a time where God was calling us to activate our spirits. Wednesday we stood and fought spiritually to see our finances released and R75000 came in. Thursday was a significant time of fighting for our inheritance as a DTS in India.
Meditate on and journal what God has been speaking to you and to the class:
So basically this week was a turning point. I feel that those in our class who have felt lost and not a fit into our puzzle together, are finding their feet. People are feeling they are of value and have strengths that they hid away from no confidence before. I love seeing all this coming through and happening, but then again, on the other side, those who have been louder and stronger I feel in the beginning are starting to feel a bit more attacked by some evil spirits. Lies that aren't true. I am I think more on that side. I feel more lost than before, and clearly through my previous blogging this week you can read that.
I don't know why we can't all feel strong together, but I do know that God is pushing us through this all together!
Personally like I said, it's just a feeling of losing my bearings I thought I might have had before. Humbling over and over and then trying to remember, that God created me too and I am of value and loved so keep up that confidence.
Confidence in God's strength he gives me. I need to lay everything to him. Forget that I want and need control. Forget that I need acceptance. I need to have any control in my life, because in the end I lose. I always do.
Let God be the potter to mold me and make me.
Take time to think through next week's topic. What questions do you have about the Holy Spirit?
WOW, this one is quite hard because to me this idea of the HOly Spirit is exactly how I pictured her in the book, The Shack. This aura that I can't quite EVER grasp. I can never fully see her shape because she isn't and she is. In so many forms and so many ways.
How can we 'best' bring on the holy spirit?
How do I explain what the holy spirit is to others?
Can I explain the holy spirit? Box this idea in?
Can one person be more 'holy' than the other, and if so can it happen in an instant or gradually?
Can we really ever answer these question about this inigma?
