"Go into all the world and preach the
gospel to every creature” Mark 16:15.
‘‘But they all alike began to make excuses.’ Luke 14:18 NIV
Jesus told the story of a man who planned a banquet and invited
several guests. Listen to some of their excuses for not attending.
‘I’ve purchased a field.’ ‘I’ve bought some oxen.’ ‘I just got
married.’ So the host said, ‘Not one
of those who were invited will get a taste of my banquet.’ (Luke
14:24 NIV) Maybe you think you’re different, that you have a good
reason for saying no to God. But is it worth missing your destiny
for? When God speaks to you, that’s the moment of truth! At that
point you either make a commitment or make an excuse. There and
then you’re deciding your destiny! What is God asking you to do?
What’s making you hesitate? Fear of failure? Fear of being
criticised? Fear usually comes dressed up as an excuse. And every
time you waver or pull back, you lay another brick in the wall that
will ultimately keep you from reaching your God-ordained destiny.
Author John Mason says, ‘Opportunity is often lost in
deliber-ation.’ So if God’s telling you to do something, take His
hand and move forward in faith. You can’t control the direction of
the wind, but by God’s grace you can adjust your sails to take you
where you need to go. The great educator and scientist George
Washington Carver said, ‘Ninety-nine per cent of failures come from
people who have a habit of making excuses.’ Remember, opportunity
is a visitor: don’t assume it will be back tomorrow. Now is the
time—move while the door is open!

Bible Study - 7:00pm
Eric Kayia and Ruth Draper will be hosting our Life Group
sessions. The Life Groups last fall were the most successful ones
we had and looking forward to another great group this winter. If
you haven’t been attending I’d encourage you to. Invite
someone.
What does it look like for people to experience the love, power,
and presence of God so strongly they’re transformed from the inside
out? Many people go to church when it’s convenient, occasionally
read their Bibles and pray, and sometimes feel close to God, but
He’s not the passion and purpose of their lives. They may be
believers, but they’re not devoted disciples. In this study, Dennis
Rouse gives us a clear contrast between believers and disciples,
and he inspires us to experience more of God than ever before.
Pulse Youth Ministry - 7:00pm
