Blog update for the week 4th July 2009

What is Church at home?

I would like to extend a warm welcome to all people reading this may the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and send his ministering angels to watch over you as you go about this life he has given you.

The purpose of this space is to lift up and glorify the name of Jesus Christ, to share the love and the gospel to a sad and dying world.  It promotes his online church “Church at home”

this concept was formed to help people that struggle through sickness, disability, or have had bad experiences with the church that stops them from getting to live church services. 

We are non denominational and have from around the world, people that attend Church at home service that do go to and take active roles in Sunday Churches.  Church at home is a bible based Church and preaches the gospel as it is, you will not find sermons here to the likening of all, but we teach it the way it was taught by the early church hard hitting to the point and at times confrontational.

We believe that there is no place for a watered down soft gospel to keep people happy the truth as much as it can hurt at times is given here. I would encourage you to have a look at our doctrine that can be found at our website http://churchathome-au.com/index.php?p=1_4_Doctrine To keep up to date with what is happening at Church at home please visit http://churchathome-au.com

 
What does 2009 have in store for Church at home?
 
As I sit at my desk writing this, amazed at what God has done at Church at Home in the past 21 months, we were 9 months old when I sat this time last year and wrote what has become an all to familiar site on our weekly blog telling newbie’s to the blog what we are all about, as you read this we will start the new year being 22 months old and where 2008 laid the foundations for a challenging, fresh outlook for Church at home for 2009 I believe we will continue to see, lives changed, people set free, a greater understanding of God’s Bible given, my friend as I have said for some time now 2009 is the year that Church at Home members will take what from Satan what Satan had no right to take in the first place,

·         Our Wealth

·         Our Health

·         Our Rights

·         Our Authority

We need to remember this, for "who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?" But we have the mind of Christ.” (1 Corinthians 2:16) we have the mind of Christ praise the Lord and then we need to be “casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:5) How may time do I say “Satan wins your mind he wins you?” My friends  take comfort knowing this “Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Luke 10:19. Nothing shall by any means hurt you, do you believe this so we can go and take back what Satan has taken from us I have no doubt over this, why because Revelation 12:11 says “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.” How did they over come Satan and his cohorts, by the Blood of the Lamb and the Word of their testimony, and they died of the flesh and followed the will of God for their lives. Saints this is why I know we have the victory and why we will take back our wealth, health, rights and authority.

2009 will take Church at Home to a minimum of three countries, will allow us to video tape our messages and place them on the world wide net for a greater number of people to see, will see the use of spiritual gift to be developed and used within the Church.

I believe that we as a Church are being called to focus on these areas for 2009 they are

To seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all else with be given until you Matthew 6:33.

To test by the spirit of God all Teaches, Preachers, Pastors to make sure they are using the word of God. 1 John 4:1-3, 1 Thessalonians 5:21.

To understand that we have the mind of Christ therefore take captive any thought that doesn’t line up to the mind of Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:5

To use the God given authority we have to take control of our lives and not give Satan & his cohorts a foot hold to come and destroy us. Luke 10:19.

To be consistently filled with the Holy Spirit. John 7:37-38

We long to experience a deeper manifestation of your presence as we draw closer to you like never before.  James 4:8

To worship in spirit and truth. John 4:23

Showing the love of Jesus Christ to a lost and hurting world. 1 Corinthians 13

To follow the calling of the Great Commission by building on the foundations set in 2008. Matthew 28:19-20

Be still and know I am God Psalms 46:10

2008 was exciting, but hold your horses 2009  will be mind blowing so fasten your seat belts, and we pray you can be part of it all for his glory

If you Believe you can , you can

If you think you are beaten – you are

If you think dare not – you don’t

If you want to win but think you can’t,

It is almost a cinch you won’t

If you think you’ll lose – you’ve lost

For our of the word we find

That success begins with a fellow’s will

It’s all in the state of mind

Life’s battles don’t always go

To the stronger or the faster man;

But sooner or later the man that wins

It the one who thinks he can.

Twenty Cans of Success

How often do we hear people say well I just can’t do it? Well stating this week we will be looking at the “Twenty Cans For Success” Apply them and win the victory over Satan.

1.       Why should I say I can’t when the Bible says I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength (Philippians 4:13)

 Why should I worry about my needs when I know that God  will take care of all my needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19)

Why should I fear when the Bible says God has not given me a spirit of fear, but power, Love and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7)

Wayne’s Weekly Bible Verse

Fools for Christ's Sake

⁶Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that you may learn in us not to think beyond what is written, that none of you may be puffed up on behalf of one against the other.

⁷For who makes you differ from another? And what do you have that you did not receive? Now if you did indeed receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?

⁸You are already full! You are already rich! You have reigned as kings without usand indeed I could wish you did reign, that we also might reign with you!

⁹For I think that God has displayed us, the apostles, last, as men condemned to death; for we have been made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men.

¹⁰We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are strong! You are distinguished, but we are dishonored!

¹¹To the present hour we both hunger and thirst, and we are poorly clothed, and beaten, and homeless.

¹²And we labor, working with our own hands. Being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we endure;

¹³being defamed, we entreat. We have been made as the filth of the world, the offscouring of all things until now. 1 Corinthians 4:6-13

Who I am in Christ

I Am secure

Colossians 3:3             I am hidden with Christ in God

2 Timothy 1:7              I have not been given a spirit of fear, but of power, love and sound mind
