BIBLE STUDY SCHEDULE

There were 2 days from Egypt to Canaan. One was only a few days journey; the other was much further about, through the wilderness, and that was the way in which God chose to lead His people. The Egyptians were to be drowned in the Red sea; the Israelites were to be humbled and proved in the wilderness. Gods ways are not our ways.

4. How do we accomplish this? Allow me to suggest three things we can do to fulfill the ministries to which God has called us and for which He has gifted us. A. We must become a part of a Local body of believers Connected to the body Accountable to the body Strengthened by the body Minister within the body B. We must understand Gods will for our lives Knowing Gods will for our individual lives is imperative if we are going to fulfill our God given ministries. When we find Gods will it will be in agreement with: Gods Word Gods People Your Gifts and Calling Your Experience Your Heart Desire C. We must exercise Faith and Fulfill our Ministry Start somewhere Accept Responsibility Be Accountable Expect God to show up

The Pastors Message

by Pastor Hector de Guzman

UNDERSTANDING A CHRISTIAN LIFE ROMANS 12:1-8
1. We must be satisfied to be just what God has called and gifted us to be, no more, no less. v. 3 We must have a spirit of humility. Notice that before we can do something for God, we must become what God wants us to become. That is to say, before we can do anything for Him, we must have allowed Him to do something for us: namely, to change us. Before he addresses our actions, he addresses our attitudes. Humility that spirit that neither boasts of our own gifts nor is jealous of another. 2. As individual members we must work in unity for the common good of the Body of Christ. vv 4-5 Each member of the body is an individual. It is important to understand our individuality without sacrificing our sense of community. This is one of the reasons many of our Filipino brothers and sisters in Christ have been so effective in their church life. While they have not abandoned their right to be an individual, they have laid it aside long enough to work for the common good of the community of faith to which they are attached. 3. We must serve God in proportion to and according to the Spiritual gift He has given us. We must do it in proportion to our faith. You can only do as much as you trust God to do through you. You must exercise your gift in accordance to the measure of faith God gives you. Like a muscle, faith grows when it is exercised. If your faith is weak, you need to use it more. The more you use it the stronger it gets, and the stronger it gets the more you will accomplish within the kingdom of God. Your success and impact upon the body of Christ and the world at large will depend upon how much faith you exercise and how much you let God use you to His glory.

Even if we may not always understand why God allows certain things to happen to us, we can know He is able to bring good out of evil, and triumph out of suffering. Billy Graham
