Transformed" meeting, which was at Brixton. Brixton area at night was an eye-opener for me.
Noble's using my bible, you know!! My bible's on youtube! haha! Last minute, he borrowed it. Wise man! And he said my bible is a Cornhill bible cos it's ESV. Haha!
It was truly encouraging to see him planning to read scripture (
Ephesians 2:1-10) then share his testimony. And how his aim in sharing his testimony is to share Christ. It'll be SO evident and result in people praising God for his work in us, wanting God's work in their lives as well, since the different methods in which God has caused us to turn to him in repentance will be different for everyone, and the method won't apply to everyone. BUT, sharing Christ will impact the hearers (!!)...something I learnt during mission week when I shared my testimony about how Jesus became bigger and bigger in my life, which is all of God's grace and mercy towards me. A sharing of testimony where your hearers wonder and want to know who Jesus is, and not where your hearers just go away saying "Oh, that was an amazing testimony" and that's all there is.
God knows the problem with us - it's our hearts. No matter how anyone tells me what to do and gives me instructions, if I don't want to do it, nothing can be done. Even if I do it, it may be for a little while and I stop doing it. Or I totally rebel against God. A change of heart is needed. PRAISE the Lord for Jesus!!
Jeremiah 31:33"This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that time," declares the LORD. "I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people."
