1 | What are your church expectations? | Heb 10:25 | Belmaree | 29764 | ||
Dear Charis, God is just so amazing. Yes, it is a hope that a church will begin here, in our home! God has not removed an aching heart for the people in this area. I absolutely agree that Our Lord desire a heart bent towards Him over any worldly degree or education! I also believe that God is leading us to be a church. This summer we are offering three days to the community to come and find Jesus and to also revive the believers. We hope a church will form from that. I am not sure if this is backwards...I mean do you need a church first to offer Salvation and revival? You pose a very good question as to what my expectations of a church are to be. I know what it is God has laid on my heart and I have seen plenty of false churches and teachings and rule of man's doctrine. But what I have seen most of all is the Truth in God's Word and what God has shown me thru scriptures is pretty simple and that is to lift up Jesus Christ in teaching, praise and worship. Prophesy is permisable and speaking in tongues if interpretation is also present. Music is a delight to the Lord as well as acts of mercy and kindness. That's about all I know. I do believe, like you said, God WILL provide...he surely is! Thanks and a multitude of blessing upon you and yours too! Belmaree |

Dear Belmaree, Greetings in the name of Jesus! May the Lord of Provision, Jehovah-jireh lead your path to the desire of your heart. I read your personal profile after posting to you and saw that you are in Valparaiso, near Green Acres! Well, I am in Yokohama, near Tokyo, and was in a similar situation 15 years ago. My community has about 8 million people, but none of the churches in the area were preaching the Gospel, but instead an 'agenda.' After much searching, my (pregnant) wife, 3 year old daughter and I started meeting in our living room. God has been faithful to make us into a local expression of the body of Christ. I am certain that He will guide you to a similar blessing. I have a Daytimer notebook with all my studies and sermon outlines. Page one has this written: "For who has despised the day of small things? But these seven will be glad when they see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel--these are the eyes of the LORD which range to and fro throughout the earth." Zecheriah 4:10 NASB, and "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." Matthew 6:33 NASB. Blessings and joy in Christ Jesus, charis |

Charis! What encouragement and hope you have given me! Thank you for the Zecheriah and the Matthew scripture! That is awesome!!! For sure righteousness outweighs anything my flesh or this world tries to convince me of! Truely amazing too is how we are One in Christ, and it has little to do with geography! I am astonished you are in Japan and I am in US. What a wonderful God we have! He never ceases to bring joy to me every single day. God bless you! I am revived and filled with joy once again. Joy and peace be yours in Christ. Belmaree |
