We started the morning by gathering the people as usual, at 3=4o the meeting started in the church of joy, Mohammed lead the first prayer and zenabo and sleam also mohammed  had the best worship, they really took us in to heaven . I delivered the message, I preached about freedom of Jesus then I prayed many people set free from different thing, three people got saved , they came to Christ .more than 40 people was in the church.

In the afternoon we had a lot of fun with team first we played pool ,palace café, then we walked down to joggle , looking the city and meeting some precious people of harar .then we ate the best dinner in fresh touch, was amazing day we had , thanks to living God.      

In the morning after breakfast we started by visiting our church members, we met a lot of our disciples and some new people in the street; sharing the life of Jesus for them it was awesome. In the afternoon we had open prayer meeting for all the church members, many of the church members were there and had wonderful prayer, Mohammed shared the word about likeness of Jesus. He preached from Rom 8=29 God predestined us to be conformed to the likeness of his son, so we need to live according to or calling. That was Mohammed’s preaching in the prayers.

 We had amazing house church in melese house, I really saw great change in melese life he preached about spiritual sight, he mentioned about Caleb and Joshua also about those ten people with Caleb and Joshua both saw the same thing together but two of them speak victory the others ten of them speak bad, because the eyes of Caleb and Joshua see God but the others eyes see the situation. That was cool preaching.

We were ten people together in melese house one new guy joined us, everyone was so happy the presence of God was there.

Finally am looking forward for tomorrow’s meeting am goanna preach in the church of joy about Jesus victory in the cross. Jesus took all the burdens of human beings when he died on the cross. I will preach the freedom of Jesus. I believe tomorrow Jesus set free many people from much bondage, the power of resurrection will revile for everyone. Hallellujaaaa, Amen         

 

 

    

Tuesday at seven I came back to Ethiopia from the greatest and amazing festival in Tanzania. I really enjoyed very much there, I have seen the hand of God when moving. More than 2800 people got saved and many got healing and also many got baptized in Holy Spirit and fire. The other thing what I mostly liked is the fellowship among team member, it was really surprising, everyone huge each other, love each other, speak good each other………..i really miss when it end the festival

Tuesday I slept in addis , then early morning at 5 me and Mohammed started driving from addis with our car , it was perfect since awash , Mohammed was driving very fast we were enjoyed in the beginning but we were close to awash the car started to give some kinds of strange sound from the engine, when we go out and see the engine started to smoke then we tried to start again but it did not start the engine . We took to the mechanics but they could not fix, then I took minibus to harar and left my friend Mohammed there because I have bible school to teach, I reached harar 5 minutes bible school start, then I put my bag and direct I started to teach was cool.

The second day of harar feels very good having amazing morning gathering with my family, and encouraging them with the word of God. I love my life more and more.              

 

Am looking forward the Sunday meeting tomorrow and leaving harar for a little while to have festival with amazing sos team in Tanzanian, am going to preach tomorrow in the church of joy about Spiritual blessing, last week my friend pastor Samuel preached about economical blessing, he shown how can be blessed, i will continue our spiritual blessing in Christ ,tomorrow I will try to show them the following points from Eph 1=3-14

 With all spiritual blessings. All came from God, and he has withheld none from those in Christ.

 In the heavenly. In the kingdom of heaven.

According as. "Even as," in Revision.

 Chosen us in him before the foundation of the world. This does not affirm that God chose some individuals and rejected others, but that before the world was, before there was Jew or Gentile, God chose to have a people for himself, the whole church of Christ, a covenant people confined to no one earthly race.

 Holy and without blame. God chose them that they might be holy. Holiness is the proof that a church is a chosen church.

 Having predestinated us. Foreordained that we, the church of Jesus Christ, should be adopted as his children. The whole line of argument is general instead of particular. God foreordained a church which should be composed of those adopted as his children.

 According to the pleasure of his will. The act of predestination was due simply to God's sovereign will. His will was the cause.

 To the praise of the glory of his grace. To the end that his grace in adopting us as children may redound to his praise and glory.

 In the beloved. In Christ. See Mat_3:17; Col_1:13.He also gave us holy spirit, this is called spiritual blessing, hallelujaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, i love my life very much, because am working with holy spirit, he is so so good

 

The last two days I have shown great change of driving car, yesterday I drove the minibus to aratigna and turn to the lift close to the big mosque and driving among many people it is cool. Today I took the minibus again to the joggle (that mean into the old city) that is also succeeded, but one guy was in the middle of the road he was very close to get crash not me but he was very close to crash my car any way training going very good, but for the coming 10 ten days am going to miss the training because of Tanzanian festival, even if I miss I will not be sad because I will be in the best place.

The other thing is today we had the best church members meeting with our best church members in our house, we had really amazing time. Mohammed started the meeting with fire full prayer and song, the he continue to preach about God changed our identity , he said we all had some kinds of identity the devil and the world gave us but when we received Jesus Christ  as our own saver he changed our old identity. That was amazing preaching. Then I took over and I told the information about yard what he has been doing in our church and among the church members, and also our decision about him, he is not our church member, we love them but he cannot be in the part of the church vision, finally Samuel stabilized what we have said and he encouraged all our church members not to be lost what they have in Christ and if they got any kinds of new teaching they should come to us and ask, also he said we are so open for everything if you have any question

Finally I reached the bus and I sat down and asked help from heaven father. Then the bus started to go , the first ten minutes I did not feel anything but after ten more minutes I was a need of toilet but the bus will never stop the only chance I have is God , I just said to God please God help me I cannot do anything here so my only chance is you I said, then I changed place and looking for help, amazing thing is after that time  I did not think of it I completely forgotten my pain , thanks to be my living God. He took all my pain and until I got toilet nothing happened.

Now am in addis I meet my brother and ate nice tibes together with my brother and looking the city a little bit. Am looking forward to fix insurance tomorrow and going back harar Tuesday.

 

The greatest tragedy in life

There are many thing can be tragedy in once life, as the writer Myles Munroe said, life without purpose is the greatest tragedy in once life. This can be true and I completely agreed with his idea but what I want write is not his idea again but I just want to write my own kinds of understanding or my own view of point about greatest tragedy of life.

In my consideration the greatest tragedy in life is if someone does not understand his value of life.

Jesus said in mat 6:26 look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?

                   Mat    10:31      Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.

 

Mat 12:12   of how much more value is a man than a sheep! So it is lawful to do well on the Sabbath."

Luk 12:24 consider the ravens: they neither sow nor reap, they have neither storehouse nor barn, and yet God feeds them. Of how much more value is you than the birds!

When God created us He created us with great value and purpose, but many times we forget the value we have in life, we are very important for God and for entire world.

On the other hand as i consider some people they do not know the value they have so they always think themselves as valueless for everything, so that some times when you give them value and when you give them love or attention they will never give it back or they will not accepted what you are saying, that is sad actually. What can i do then , But i know what to do, i will pray........................................

 

 

It looks good

The last two three days I have heard a lot of new things in the team house. It makes me happy and laughter

Let me share with you some of them

First of all Sunday afternoon at 8=00 after the church meeting we all have been laid together in the big room suddenly Mohammed got quiet for a couple of minutes and he started to wrote up something , it was new vision . After while he said once listen to me I have something to say, I got vision from God. Then we all started to hear his new vision. He said I will travel all African country with motor bike that was cool, when he announced his future vision some of us laugh at him. But he quoted one of the bible verses and he said in the bible the wife of Abraham Sara when God told her what will happen in her future she laugh, like that you laughed  he said.   

By the way I have tried to support in the way look support, I said Mohammed even if this vision not fulfill by you it can happen by your children , as soon as I said that he said loud this is from holy spirit, who wants to be the part of this ?

On the other hand Philip said if this is true I will follow you Mohammed, he said . he was so happy and he encourage everyone to join.

            LET US SEE WHAT WILL BE

Another amazing thing  is one of the best worker in the team house named Yehuleshet , she brought up some amazing news , she said soon I will get married , I tried to ask the time , she is not very sure but within five month she said. Also her friend Alem got boy friend, it is amazing……………….

Finally am looking forward Tanzanian festival, praying and fasting three coming days to have breakthrough there.

Blessed be the name of the Lord.      

as the bible speaks  from victor to victor, we have been experienced a lot of break through in christ jesus, i have preached about resurrectoin of dead and eternal judgement, there was alot of joy in the church of joy . three people got saved,  they joined into the kingdom of God they  run into christ,  hallelujaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.in the after noon we had alot fun with the team, little fight, throwing the people, and waching football, harar bera lost with dire dawa kenam. and eating the nice fish, phillip fixed and so on.......................

Mark 6: 30~44

How can we minister to the needs of the others when the circumstances are difficult and when we lack the personal capability and resources

1               Challenge of difficult circumstances. Vs 30-38

-          Large group of people

-          Remote area

-          Late in the day

-          No money

-         In adequate resources.

When the disciples considered the circumstance they concluded that the needs of people could not be met by them.

 Because of that, they said, send them...

2               command of Jesus

-   You give them something to eat

-   divide the people in to groups and have them sit down.

-   Give the food to the people.

Jesus simply wanted the disciples to be obedient to his commands and leave the problem to him.

Obedience is all Christ asks from us.

#   being available is more important than ability.

#   Attitude is more important than achievement.

     3    capacity of Jesus to meet

 Jesus took the five loaves of bread two fish and blessed them and multiplied them to abundantly supply the needs of the people.

We must concentrate on Christ, not on difficult circumstances or on our lack of ability and resources.

             Christ has simply called us to be faithful and obedient. He has promised to do the rest.   Phi 4 = 13 - 19

A pastor should be.....
               =spiritual leader not a supreme Lord
               =spiritual feeder not a strong arm enforcer
               =spiritual protector not a super-policeman.
