WHAT ARE YOU EXPECTING FROM GOD?What new beginnings are you expecting from him? When i was in prayer last month the Lord revealed to me that the CHURCH has relaxed because of the word "new beginning" people are expecting magics to happen this year, probably getting a new job, a new life, a new something. Just automatically!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;Infact, and truely this is the year that those who will be focused and be faithfully to the Lord shall harvest God's purpose in their lives, and enter into their destiny. This is the year that the body of Christ has to earnerstly seek God like never before. The church has to take its position. The children of God have to position themselves. My God the past is over, the future has alot of promise and possibilites.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lets look at the word of God, when the people of God who were positioned in their new beginnings what they did.2Chronicles 29:1-6 talks about King Hezekiah he was known to be one of the best kings in Jerusalem. When he was appointed to be king the bible says he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord. The first thing he did when he became the president (King) was;- he Opened the doors of the temple of God and repaired them! and ordered the levites who were the priest to purify themselves and concerate themselves and asked them to remove all the defilement from the sanctuary. The word of God continue to say in 2Chronicles 31;20 that King Hezekiah did all this before God and lived right and became faithful, obeied God's command. The bible says so he PROSPERED. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I dont really know about us. If God gives us such a chance to become president or if he prosper us in any area of our lives, are we going to put him first? We are also reflecting what king Hezekiah did with today. Today we are talking about our bodies as the temple of God. Are we going to open our bodies to God and purify ourselves? Concecrate ourselves and choose to live right with God? Or rather we are just going to forget him and focus with our fame (the new beginning).&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In the book of Daniel 1:7- 11 The bible says When God positioned Daniel, Shadrack, Mesharck and Abednego in their new beginning (at the palace), they refused to eat the food from the palace! They choose not to defile themselves with the royal food and wine instead they choose to eat only vegetables and water. The bible says they looked more better than the rest. Imagine you just came from the developing countries and here you are in the PALACE! or lest put it the first world. The food is great and as much as you want, drinks are there only your choice, while in your country to get a soda is until there is a wedding or something big is happening. Would we do like what Daniel, Shedrack, Mesharck and Abednego did?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The word of God tells us we should not be confirmed with the things of this world. When we get saved ourlives should be different from the lives of this world. There has to be a difference.OUR NEW BEGINNINGS SHOULD BE FOCUSED WITH OUR GOD. Just as God wants to start a new beggining with you so as the devil is fighting so hard so that you dont get it. That is why this year is very crutial to the body of Christ. We have to pray like never before. I believe Jesus is preparing his church for his second coming.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;God's Prophetic message to us this year is in the book of Rev 3:7-9. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is more powerful than anything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;"These are the words of him who is holy and ture, who holds the key of Daivd. What e opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open. I know your deeds. See I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name. I will make those hwo are of the synagogue of satan, who claim to be Jews though they ar not , but are liars-I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you"&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663366;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If Jesus opens the door to your spiritual success, to your destiny, to your family, to your needs no one can shut it. THIS IS THE YEAR OF NEW BEGINNINGS, we cannot enter or go through that open door if we are not living right with God, if we are not seeking him to know what he wants us to do. God is ready to do something in our lives today. If we take his word seriously our lives will never be the same again. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Yes we can go through hard times (through fire) but the word of God says No weapon that is formed againts us shall prosper Isaiah 54:17. Take the word prosper = success. This means no matter problems we are facing, they are not going to be successful. It doesnt matter what struggles you are facing right now they arent going to be successful. Saints lets not relax on the word "New Beginning" Lets jumpstart our prayer lives and position ourselves for God's Kingdom. Isaiah 60:1 the bible say Arise and Shine for the Glory of God is upon you. Praise God let his name be lifted up on high. May his presence be manifested among us. May God enable us to hear and act on his word. AMEN&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.priscillahmushi.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://www.priscillahmushi.blogspot.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2424933411136422570-5775227609021057304?l=icpnetwork.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.priscillahmushi.blogspot.com' title='NEW BEGINNINGS AND AN OPEN DOOR THAT NO ONE CAN SHUT Rev3:7-9'/><link rel='enclosure' type='' href='http://www.priscillahmushi.blogspot.com' length='0'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://icpnetwork.blogspot.com/feeds/5775227609021057304/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2424933411136422570&amp;postID=5775227609021057304&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2424933411136422570/posts/default/5775227609021057304'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2424933411136422570/posts/default/5775227609021057304'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://icpnetwork.blogspot.com/2008/02/new-beginnings-and-open-door-that-no.html' title='NEW BEGINNINGS AND AN OPEN DOOR THAT NO ONE CAN SHUT Rev3:7-9'/><author><name>Priscillah Mushi</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4XAKOFVbg3w/Tqm21uM3ijI/AAAAAAAAAH4/crkwnlYlGc0/s220/pic%2B2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424933411136422570.post-4139225176815222860</id><published>2007-11-07T10:03:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-11-07T11:56:37.717-08:00</updated><title type='text'>WE ARE HIS DWELLING PLACE- THE TEMPLE OF GOD</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;Just to let you get a good idea i will give you a short history about the Temple of God. The temple of God is the House of God. We see in the Old Testament the people of Israel gave a huge priority and value to the temple of God. The temple of God was built for him to dwell. So the Israelite would do, and give everything to make sure the Temple of God looks the best and has the best.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;We know that there were 3 temples that were built during the old and new testament. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;1. was called Solomonic temple, built by King Solomon, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;2. was called Zerubebal's Temple, built after Israelities returned from Babylon, it is know that Zerubabel was the one who came with 50,000 Israelities from Babylon. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;3. was called Herodian Temple, which was built by Herod the Great who promised the Jews he will build a temple for them- Actually this is the temple Jesus went and found people selling and buying things &lt;strong&gt;John2:16&lt;/strong&gt; he told them Get out here how dare you turn my Father's house into a market! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;Also remember that in the wilderness the Israelities had the Terbanacle which was a portable sanctuary carried with the Israelities throught their wilderness. It was also known as the Tent of the Meeting.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;Why the Temple? God wants us to understand how important is the temple to him. In the book of &lt;strong&gt;Revelations 11;19&lt;/strong&gt; God's concerns was to establish his kingdom ( His witnesses were Moses and Elijah who knew, how really God wanted to establish his presence among his people.) here on earth and in heavens, because this kingdom ( Earth) the devil had been thrown with his demons &lt;strong&gt;Revelation 12&lt;/strong&gt; and he took control over it. The Word of God says in &lt;strong&gt;verse 7&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Rev 12&lt;/strong&gt; and there was war in heaven, michael and his angels fought againtst the drangon(satan) and his angels fought back. ( this is where the Spiritual Warfare began).God was looking for a place that he can dwell and establish himself among his people. That is why God promised David that he was to build him a temple that he can dwell among his people. David wasnt able to build the temple because of what he did (&lt;strong&gt;1kings 5:3-5)&lt;/strong&gt; so his son Solomon build the first Temple for God. (&lt;strong&gt;1kings:6 and 7)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;One thing God wants us to know today is that we are the temple of the living God. Actually when Jesus Came a new covenant was established between God and his people. The word of God says that Jesus was called Emanuel meaning God with us. Through the power of the Blood of Jesus (&lt;strong&gt;Rev 12:10&lt;/strong&gt;) we overcame the devil. &lt;strong&gt;John 14:23&lt;/strong&gt; If you love Jesus and accept him as your saviour, Him and Father and Holy Spirit will dwell in you ( his temple)&lt;strong&gt;1Corinthians 3;16&lt;/strong&gt; says we are the temple of God. &lt;strong&gt;1 Corithians 6:19&lt;/strong&gt; says we were bought by price, so Honor God with your body&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;One of the laws of the Temple is Holiness, even around you ( meaning your lifestyle) &lt;strong&gt;Ezekiel 43;12&lt;/strong&gt; . We have to do something with our bodies ( temple of God). King Hezekiah who was know to be the best king in Israel, knew the secret. When he was appointed king he put God first. &lt;strong&gt;2Chronicles 29:1-6 and verse 10&lt;/strong&gt;. King Hezekiah decided to repair and concencrate the temple, even the people of Israel went and purify themsleves.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;In order for God to dwell in us we have to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;1. Purify ourselves&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;2. Concecrate ourselves to God. (dedicate to do the work of God) This can be in your church, ministry. Do something for the kindom of God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;3. We should offer our bodies as living sacrifise, HOLY and acceptable before God. &lt;strong&gt;Romans12:1&lt;/strong&gt; We can not just live a luxury life if we want God to dwell in us. We have to let our selfishness go for him to use us. For him to dwell in us. In doing so is to spend more time in his presence because its in his presences there is liberty. The more you talk to him, the more he will correct you and direct your path.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;I am telling you saints if God dwells in you, every person around you will know. &lt;strong&gt;Exodus33:7-11&lt;/strong&gt;. The Israelities knew when Moses went in the terbanacle (tent of the meeting) Because the Glory of God would come in the terbancle and around the tent (&lt;strong&gt;Remember Ezekiel43:12)&lt;/strong&gt;. Every one would bow down and worshiped before God's presence. They knew Moses was different.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993399;"&gt;My prayer today is that we all keep our temples pure before God so that he can dwell in us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;www.priscillahmushi@blogspot.com&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2424933411136422570-4139225176815222860?l=icpnetwork.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://icpnetwork.blogspot.com/feeds/4139225176815222860/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2424933411136422570&amp;postID=4139225176815222860&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2424933411136422570/posts/default/4139225176815222860'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2424933411136422570/posts/default/4139225176815222860'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://icpnetwork.blogspot.com/2007/11/we-are-his-dwelling-place-temple-of-god.html' title='WE ARE HIS DWELLING PLACE- THE TEMPLE OF GOD'/><author><name>Priscillah Mushi</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4XAKOFVbg3w/Tqm21uM3ijI/AAAAAAAAAH4/crkwnlYlGc0/s220/pic%2B2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424933411136422570.post-219862326778183413</id><published>2007-08-15T08:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-08-15T08:32:40.198-07:00</updated><title type='text'>What are you going thru?</title><content type='html'>Did you just stumble into this blog? Oh! Looks like you intended to visit us, you are very welcome. Please, when you go back, tell them that we love them (just as we love you) and are PRAYING for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just before you go, there's a question I have for you: "What are you going through?" I didn't hear you well, did you just say 'nothing'? Well, praise the Lord for that. But even as you go thru that 'nothing' there's a reminder that I would love to throw at you. I am not sure when you last read your Bible, but have you ever come across either&lt;br /&gt;                         "....lo! I will be with you to the end of the edge!"..... OR&lt;br /&gt;                  ........."... lo! I will be with you to the end of the age.".....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Good News is that one of those is a Scripture in Matt 28:20. Now, pardon me to say this to you: the above two statements are both true! Jesus promised the apostles and or disciples that He would be with them to the end of the age. But, are there times that you feel pushed against the wall by life issues? So much push that it feels like where you are standing is just close to the last moment in that another slight push would throw you into the deep end? Call that point the 'edge' and listen to this once more... even there, the Lord is with you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you stand at the edge of any situation in your life, remember when our Master Himself was pushed to the cliff [edge of the...] and had it not been that He decided to slip through their hands, He was going to be crushed. Whom do we have to follow that has not gone through all that we are going through? Jesus knows that there are yield points, breaking points and inelastic points in our lives---and all these are real edges, EVEN then He will be with us. When you pray, remember that he cares and knows exactly what you are going through. He knows the end of the EDGE and also, He knows the end of the AGE!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;New England Arise and Pray to the LORD.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2424933411136422570-219862326778183413?l=icpnetwork.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://icpnetwork.blogspot.com/feeds/219862326778183413/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2424933411136422570&amp;postID=219862326778183413&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2424933411136422570/posts/default/219862326778183413'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2424933411136422570/posts/default/219862326778183413'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://icpnetwork.blogspot.com/2007/08/what-are-you-going-thru.html' title='What are you going thru?'/><author><name>Deb Ongs</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04735961272245554658</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424933411136422570.post-1552304964788758489</id><published>2007-08-11T09:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-08-13T13:09:42.068-07:00</updated><title type='text'>DONOT MISS!

May be only particular people can pray. Or may be we need to pray when we have trials and when we are going through some problems. Well may be when i get sick thats when I will pray. Some will say i will pray when i go to church this sunday. Others will say i prayed today when i was about to it, and i prayed for everything. Gosh! i prayed last night when i was going to bed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Prayers have been placed like a certain order people will do when they want something from God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;LET ME BE HONEST. PRAYERS ARE MORE DEEPER THAN WHAT WE THINK&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;You can never get through it, or be satisfied with it, its a daily experience and when you are climbing to the next level it even becomes more YOU&lt;/strong&gt;!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The best teacher of prayers is the HOLY SPIRIT. If you have him he will teach you how to pray and how to go to the Father. The bible says in the book of &lt;strong&gt;Romans 8:26-27&lt;/strong&gt; In the same way the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And he who searches our hearts(God) knows the mind of the Spirit, becasue the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will.&lt;br /&gt;So if we want to pray the right way we need to be close to Jesus(accept him as your personal saviour) who will introduce us to the Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit will introduce us to God. The bible continues to tell us in &lt;strong&gt;1Corinthians 2:10-11&lt;/strong&gt; But God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among us knows the thoughts of a man except the man's spirit within him? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Saints WE NEED TO PRAY BECAUSE IT IS THE ROOT OF OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD&lt;/strong&gt;. This is were we have the intimate fellowship with our God. You take your time to Listen and talk to him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;My God... WE NEED TO PRAY BECAUSE WE NEED DELIVERANCE IN OUR LAND (NEW ENGLAND). God will not do it UNLESS WE PRAY. THAT IS WHY PRAYERS ARE THERE. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WE COMMUNICATE WITH GOD THROUGH PRAYERS&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The word of God says in the book of &lt;strong&gt;Revelation12:11b&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;we over came the devil through the WORD OF OUR TESTIMONY. Something has to be SPOKEN TO RECEIVE VICTORY&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. God created this world in &lt;strong&gt;Genesis 1&lt;/strong&gt; through his WORD.. he spoke and it happened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;We cannot get our answers unless we PRAY - SPEAK A WORD TO GOD. Unless you speak a word to the Devil (IN JESUS NAME COME OUT) he will not come out. THERE IS A SECRET IN THE SPOKEN WORD.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is why we need to PRAY. TO SPEAK TO OUR GOD so that things can happen&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;span style="color:#990000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;That is why there is a call to New England for people to pray for this land. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;God will hear us he said In 2Chronicles7:14 if my people who are called by my name will humble themsevles and PRAY (SPEAK TO GOD TALK TO HIM) seek my face (have fellowship with him more and more give him time) and turn from their wicked (REPENT) ways, THEN WILL I HEAR FROM HEAVEN... we need to pray and seek his face and turn from our wicked ways and SURELY THE GLORY OF GOD SHALL RETURN TO NEW ENGLAND&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2424933411136422570-9039013637042387715?l=icpnetwork.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://icpnetwork.blogspot.com/feeds/9039013637042387715/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2424933411136422570&amp;postID=9039013637042387715&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2424933411136422570/posts/default/9039013637042387715'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2424933411136422570/posts/default/9039013637042387715'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://icpnetwork.blogspot.com/2007/08/reason-we-need-to-pray.html' title='THE REASON WE NEED TO PRAY'/><author><name>Priscillah Mushi</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4XAKOFVbg3w/Tqm21uM3ijI/AAAAAAAAAH4/crkwnlYlGc0/s220/pic%2B2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424933411136422570.post-8584869276037843401</id><published>2007-08-01T20:53:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-08-01T21:34:08.797-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LESSONS FOR TODAY FROM HAGGAI</title><content type='html'>In the book of Haggai, God calls to His people to rebuild the temple that they had given up on and neglected due their own laziness as well as discouragement caused by opposition.  The two main issues were Priority and Obedience. They had to set their priorities right. They had to shift focus from building beautiful homes for them selves to completing God's temple.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bibleresources.bible.com/passagesearchresults.php?passage1=1"&gt;http://bibleresources.bible.com/passagesearchresults.php?passage1=1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Bible says in 1 Corrinthians 3:16  that we are the temple of God.  In the same way God is telling us to rebuild our temples-our spirit, soul and body- once again. To shift priority from maintaining our outward appearance to concentrating on our souls. We need to return to God in purity, righteousness, holiness, love and obedience and finish what God started when we gave opur lives to Him when we first believed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This Word comes with a reward for obedience as well as a consequence for disobedience. If we disobey, our lives will continue to be fruitless. &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;9 "You expected much, but see, it turned out to be little. What you brought home, I blew away. Why?" declares the LORD Almighty. "Because of my house, which remains a ruin, while each of you is busy with his own house. 10 Therefore, because of you the heavens have withheld their dew and the earth its crops. 11 I called for a drought on the fields and the mountains, on the grain, the new wine, the oil and whatever the ground produces, on men and cattle, and on the labor of your hands." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we obey, we will receive the presence of God. &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;6 "This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land. 7 I will shake all nations, and the desired of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory,' says the LORD Almighty. 8 'The silver is mine and the gold is mine,' declares the LORD Almighty. 9 'The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house,' says the LORD Almighty. 'And in this place I will grant peace,' declares the LORD Almighty."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A CALL TO THE YOUTH :&lt;/strong&gt; In Haggai 1:1, the Word of the Lord came to the &lt;strong&gt;son &lt;/strong&gt;of the high priest &lt;strong&gt;and&lt;/strong&gt; the &lt;strong&gt;son&lt;/strong&gt; of the governor. This means that God is putting emphasis on the youth of today, that we are old enough to hear the Word of the Lord and obey it. We serve a special purpose because the Word in this passage of Haggai 1 and 2 was so specific to the &lt;strong&gt;sons. &lt;/strong&gt;We need to rise up and get into position where God called us. We need not fear though we are young because God predestined it that way.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2424933411136422570-8584869276037843401?l=icpnetwork.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?book_id=44&amp;chapter=1&amp;version=45' title='LESSONS FOR TODAY FROM HAGGAI'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://icpnetwork.blogspot.com/feeds/8584869276037843401/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2424933411136422570&amp;postID=8584869276037843401&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2424933411136422570/posts/default/8584869276037843401'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2424933411136422570/posts/default/8584869276037843401'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://icpnetwork.blogspot.com/2007/08/lessons-for-today-from-haggai.html' title='LESSONS FOR TODAY FROM HAGGAI'/><author><name>Connie Balagadde</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14667522686786432109</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424933411136422570.post-8434553993204572970</id><published>2007-08-01T09:07:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-08-01T09:34:45.351-07:00</updated><title type='text'>These Times? Prayer</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;When we think about water; it could be liquid, solid or gaseous! Just water! And then, time is in past-present-and future. Does it make it simple to say God is Father, Son and Holy Spirit?! No. Not at all, many people still find it so hard to believe that God can be both Father and Son at the same time or even Father and Holy Spirit, all at the same time! Makes it even more complicated to understand WHEN the three are present at the same instant. So where are we going?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;It is time for New England to understand that where the human explanation of things has failed, God is willing to explain in detail. When His glory fell amidst the Israelites as they were dedicating the temple during Solomom's time, nothing could be done. The service was paralysed and until God lifted, the human hand was suspended. We need the glory of God in NEngland, because the times have changed so much since the birth of New England.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;The old folks are playing, the young generation is busy picking up hours because the bills have to be paid, the babies and the yet-to-be born have been left to 'who knows' what? We must realize that as long as we are playing and busy, we are not praying. Can you imagine the Spirit of God is interceding for the body of Christ with groans that can't be expressed in words -whereas the body itself is sleeping? New England awaken from your slumber to the call of God in your midst, and the glory of the Lord will shine forth in our beautiful cities.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;Men ought to pray at all times. We don't even know what to pray for, but the Lord quickens our spirits to the needs of the world, what is your need? Ask the Lord to resurrect your dead prayer life, and sustain it in these dreadful times. Arise New England. Arise and Shine.&lt;/span&gt; ...&lt;em&gt;Joshua DN&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2424933411136422570-8434553993204572970?l=icpnetwork.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://icpnetwork.blogspot.com/feeds/8434553993204572970/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2424933411136422570&amp;postID=8434553993204572970&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2424933411136422570/posts/default/8434553993204572970'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2424933411136422570/posts/default/8434553993204572970'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://icpnetwork.blogspot.com/2007/08/these-times-prayer.html' title='These Times?
