Skit Guys-Good Friday
Holy Spirit by Bryan & Katie Torwalt
There is nothing worth more
That will ever come close
Nothing can compare
You’re our Living Hope
Your Presence
I’ve tasted and I’ve seen
Of the sweetest of loves
Where my heart becomes free
And my shame is undone
Your presence Lord
Holy Spirit You are welcome here
Come flood this place and fill the atmosphere
Your glory God is what our hearts long for
To be overcome by Your presence Lord
Your presence Lord
There is nothing worth more
That will ever come close
You are our Living Hope
Your presence Lord
I’ve tasted and I’ve seen
Of the sweetest of loves
Where my heart is set free
And my shame is undone
Holy Spirit You are welcome here
Come flood this place and fill the atmosphere
Your glory God is what our hearts long for
To be overcome by Your presence Lord
(Repeat)
(end)
Let us become more aware of Your presence
Let us experience the glory of Your goodness
(Repeat)
Lord
Holy Spirit You are welcome here
Come flood this place and fill the atmosphere
Your glory God is what our hearts long for
To be overcome by Your presence Lord
Exodus 4:11-12 [Amplified Bible]
[11] And the Lord said to him, Who has made man’s mouth? Or who makes the dumb, or the deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? Is it not I, the Lord? [12] Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth and will teach you what you shall say.
Thank you Christie Anderson for this verse…
It is really much appreciated my sister.
I need to meditate on this on the weeks coming up for my testimony.
Your Thoughts Run Your Life
To listen to our vocabulary you’d think we are the victims of our thoughts. “Don’t talk to me,” we say. “I’m in a bad mood.” As if a mood were a place to which we were assigned (“I can’t call you. I’m in Bosnia.”) rather than an emotion we permit.
Or we say, “Don’t mess with her. She has a bad disposition.” Is a disposition something we “have”? Like a cold or the flu? Are we the victims of the emotional bacteria of the season? Or do we have a choice?
Paul says we do: “We capture every thought and make it give up and obey Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:5).
Do you hear some battlefield jargon in that passage—-“capture every thought”, “make it give up” and “obey Christ”? You get the impression that we are the soldiers and the thoughts are enemies. Our assignments is to protect the boat and refuse entrance to trashy thoughts. The minute they appear on the dock we go into action.
”This heart belongs to God,” we declare, “and you aren’t getting on board of until you change your allegiance.”
Selfishness, step back! Envy, get lost! Find another boat, Anger! You aren’t allowed on this ship. Capturing thoughts is serious business.
It was for Jesus. Remember the thoughts that came his way courtesy of the mouth of Peter? Jesus had just prophesied his death, burial, and resurrection, but Peter couldn’t bear the the thought of it. “Peter took Jesus aside and told him not to talk like that…. Jesus said to Peter, ‘Go away from me, Satan! You are not helping me! You don’t care about the things of God, but only about the things people think are important’” (Matthew 16:22-23).
See the decisiveness of Jesus? A trashy thought comes his way. He is tempted to entertain it. A cross-less life would be nice. But what does he do? He stands at the gangplank of the dock and says, “Get away from me.” As it if to say, “You are not allowed to enter my mind.”
What if you did that? What if you took every thought captive? What if you refused to let any trash enter your mind? What if you took the counsel of Solomon: “Be careful what you think, because your thoughts run your life” (Proverbs 4:23).
(FROM A Love Worth Giving by Max Lucado)
QUESTION: If you were to take every thought captive to Christ, how would that change your life?
![James 3:2-12
[2] We all make many mistakes. If people never said anything wrong, they would be perfect and able to control their entire selves, too. [3] When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can control their whole bodies.[4] Also a ship is very big, and it is pushed by strong winds. But a very small rudder controls that big ship, making it go wherever the pilot wants.
[5] It is the same with the tongue. It is a small part of the body, but it brags about great things.A big forest fire can be started with only a little flame. [6] And the tongue is like a fire. It is a whole world of evil among the parts of our bodies. The tongue spreads its evil through the whole body. The tongue is set on fire by hell, and it starts a fire that influences all of life. [7] People can tame every kind of wild animal, bird, reptile, and fish, and they have tamed them, [8] but no one can tame the tongue. It is wild and evil and full of deadly poison. [9] We use our tongues to praise our Lord and Father, but then we curse people, whom God made like himself. [10 ]Praises and curses come from the same mouth! My brothers and sisters, this should not happen. [11] Do good and bad water flow from the same spring?
[12] My brothers and sisters, can a fig tree make olives, or can a grapevine make figs? No! And a well full of salty water cannot give good water.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lydut7cg231qc00lwo1_500.jpg)

Lately.
So much is happening. Good & Bad. All I know that God is Great. Wish I had a better memory on hand for his word.. All that means is that I should write each verse that I’m studying. I may post what I got, get out of each bible study that I’m attending/doing.
Testimony…. Soon..
Thinking about my testimony… Well writing it has me go thru many emotions. I’m just praying that God uses me to say the right things for his glory. So much stuff I want to cram in, yet be deep & descriptive…. Oh God.. Please meet my request.
Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus || Spoken Word
1 Samuel 7:2-11 [Freed & Helped]
God is really speaking to me through these verses.. In these verses he speaks through Samuel to tell the Israelites to repent & to remove everything that is not of God from their hearts. It also says [also in verse 3] that “You must give yourselves fully to the LORD and serve only him. Then he will save you from the Philistines.
That speaks to me because sometimes we want God on our own terms. Sometimes we want to serve more masters than one, & that is always a bad situation. It never works out for the best. What I like most which is evident in verses 7-11 [haha 7 Eleven] is that he helps the Israelites. Yeah it was an offering that was sent, but they asked Samuel to pray for them [& he had to sacrifice a lamb]. God wants to dwell in us, & wants to help us with our battles… If anything let him handle it. Even if we are afraid, as long as we have faith & trust him to be God.
This also really speaks to me because of last nights prayer. Seems like God was telling me to just give everything to him… Thank God for Jesus…. & Thank God for his spirit.
This Year……
I plan on writing or posting something new everyday. I plan to be more involved with tumblr to talk about my Love for Chirst. To discuss music. To discuss wrestling & other random things..
For all My Christians, this is an awesome way to remember to Merry Christmas.
Merry= When we hear that word we instantly think of Jesus’ mother…
A Mother is supposed to be someone who is very loving.
Someone who is strong & joyful.
Mary had to be very strong & tough..
Also Merry can mean Married. We as the church of Christ are the body..
A Marriage is supposed to be Intimate & Loving, & Faithful, & Of course with loads of commitment.
Not Christmas is a two parter… Christ obviously means Jesus, & mas… that is more…
So when we think of Merry Christmas, we should think of it was a time where…
We should want to be more intimate & loving & faithful & dedicated to Jesus Christ, & not just during this season.
