The moment I met Him I just felt it - there is more.<BR/><BR/>It's like Booth's sermon on the Holy Mountain. I can feel God urging me to climb higher. Leave a little bit more of self behind. Leave a little bit more of sin behind. C'mon and climb higher.<BR/><BR/>Its powerful stuff. The power of the message we preach is that there is more to this life than to live at the moment of salvation. Its about exceeding joy and purpose as we run the race and draw nearer to the finish line. Purpose and joy beyond measure - that we can make a difference for Christ Jesus.<BR/><BR/><I>Lead me higher up the mountain,<BR/>give me fellowship with Thee,<BR/>in the light I see the fountain,<BR/>and the blood it cleanses me.</I><BR/><BR/>God has so much in store for those who would follow Him - but the key is holiness. May we be an Army who writes "holiness unto th Lord" on our hearts and souls.<BR/><BR/>God bless.

Over here in Aus, I feel sometimes that little room is made for the Holy Spirit to move. Or in a meeting, 'milk' challenges are offered to people desperately in need of some real meat... <BR/><BR/>Its not just the "experience" of the Holy Spirit that I'm talkin' about here, its that deep connection with God, the Spirit's heart in place of ours (and all that comes with it... passion for the lost, pain for the hurting, love for the unlovable, holiness alive in us).<BR/><BR/>"Its fire we want, for fire we plead... send the fire!" I choose to be a Salvo because of what we stand for - war to the teeth for the salvation of souls (can't remember who said that.. Boothy?). We need the fire of the Holy Spirit to truly live up to our mission...<BR/><BR/>We're fighters... without holiness, we can't expect for the enemy to take us seriously!<BR/><BR/>As a movement, we have a radical message to bring to the world, but if we can't bring it to ourselves first (as the Salvation Army), how can we ever expect to be fully consumed by it? or truly be an "Army" with a united purpose?<BR/><BR/>'Preach it' to the church...<BR/>'Live it' to the people...Lieutenant Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01726502577507588972noreply@blogger.com
