Hey guys,
we need loads and loads of prayer for the cell.
we've all been spiritually attacked in different ways some sort or the other recently and we really shld rally together to pray consistently so that the devil will go away!
remember, the devil may try and he might use all these circumstances to make us feel like we're down and out, but he cant hurt and harm us if we dont let him and hold on to the truth and the promises of God's word.
so to help you guys pray more specifically i'll be putting up a list here of who and what to pray about
mike - exhausting army life, nightmares and disturbances during the little rest that he has, his cough and health
zach - being discouraged and for him to lead a purpose filled life
dave - his health, gastric and other parts of his body,
shawn - inability to fall asleep, getting not enough rest.
sam - sleeping too late and not getting enough rest, for his addictions like to his laptop and stuff.
jon - for his life in school and at home.
(any others?)
so yeap yeap, please spend some time with God everyday to pray for each one of us and the cell in general, like how do we continue moving together as a cell and what are God's purposes for us?
here's another guide to help you all out (basically it's just dave's entry in point form hahah)
Spend time with God and ask Him what He desires for our cell, what's a cell supposed to be?
1) its purposes for the church
2) its purposes for God's kingdom
3) how it all adds up to glorify Him
Spend time with God and ask Him how do we apply these things into our daily life?
1) Discipleship
2) Mentoring
3) Evangelising (Reaching out and loving and caring for others)
I was asking God like, how could our cell welcome new people and all that, like it seems we havent been able to do that really well, like for example during planet shakers concert, we all brought friends, but we were all too shy and uncomfy in introducing ourselves and stuck to each other instead. And God told me that we were really blessed to be able to have a special bond amongst us. that it was something great! and even though it can result in us prefering to stick to each other cos it's what we're more familiar with, it would be super cool if we all warmed up to someone new as a cell, like make them feel welcome when they mixed around with aus, then in some ways, they would feel a sense of belonging already!
so yea i wonder what you guys think bout that, maybe we could like work towards that and stuff, and go ask God to tell you how else He wants the cell to move!! maybe we'll have like new revelations and stuff. and dont forget to pray! =)
