			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>20 August 2011 &#8211; egte christene<br />
Rom 2:25-29</p>
<p>In die deel praat God van egte jode.<br />
Mense kan nie se hulle is jode, maar hulle doen nie wat jode doen nie?</p>
<p>Is dit dan nie dieselfde vir my en jou nie? Ons kan nie praat van ons christenskap op grond van ons verhouding as die verhouding nie ons tot aksie bring nie.<br />
1. Hoe kan ons praat van ons inenting sonder om vrug te dra?<br />
2. Hoe kan ons praat van ons aanstelling sonder die uitvowring van ons opdrag?<br />
3. Hoe kan ons staan op die beloftes van God as ons nie die voorwaardes kan hou nie?<br />
4. Hoe kan ons praat van die inwoning van die Gees sonder die manifistasie van die gees?<br />
Gal 5:22-26</p>
<p>Is hierdie alles nou tyd vir veroordeel? Nee nooit. Dis wel tyd om rekenskap te gee!</p>
<p>Dis tyd dat ons verantwoordbaar raak oor ons lewens.<br />
Niemand kan verantwoordelik gehou word sonder dat hy verantwoorsbaar is nie?</p>
<p>Daarom se die bybel dan :<br />
James 5:16 Confess therefore your sins one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The supplication of a righteous man availeth much in its working.</p>
<p>Dis maklik om blaam te sit op ander vir die kerk se toestand, uiteindelik is dit net ek wat dit kan na myself kyk.</p>
<p>How can you say you love me but you don&#8217;t pray for me?<br />
How can you say your my brother but you dont cover me ( but bite me)?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When Jesus dwelled on earth he called believers to walk with Him. Mostly these disciples just walked with Him. They watched Him do great things. They sacrificed everything, extracted themselves from the world to live with Jesus. They seperated themsselves from the world. Completely laying down everything for Jesus.</p>
<p>All of this sounds quite spectacular and some of us might even think of this as the ultimate Christian life. Sounds like really great Christians. </p>
<p>Here is the problem. </p>
<p>They primarily did nothing. They held back. They did little to actually advance the Kingdom. They mostly watched what He did. They gave bad advice, bad information and even bad follow-up. Hey&#8230;&#8230;.. That sounds like church people. <img src='http://www.blazeteam.co.za/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
They little they actually did was not long lasting and deffinately not out of passion. Even when they did some things like driving demons and waking him up in the boat and chopping off ears they had to be rebuked. Now, isn&#8217;t that a great picture of what we see in Church today?</p>
<p>Now, the truth of the matter remains that Christ left these uneffective self-willed followers to become the leaders that would transform the world they lived in. The same people that waited on God to do something became the ones tldoing the miracles! They became the men and women that became the showcase of God&#8217;s power and influence. They became the movers and shakers!</p>
<p>It is time for us as believers to move away from sitting, waiting and watching. We need to be the ones that people sit and wait around. We need to stop asking God to still the storms, because we need tocal it.</p>
<p>We are the ones that needs to turn the tide. It is up to us!</p>
<p>Arise man and woman of God.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Topic for the following weeks]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The principle seems simple enough but for some reason it remains difficult to practically achieve.</p>
<p>Being in one mind with your spouse seems difficult enough, but realizing that you are part of a specific body that should aim for the same goal almost seems beyond reach.</p>
<p>What does it mean to be of one mind?</p>
<p>How can we be of one accord?</p>
<p>Is this really more important than my daily affairs?</p>
<p>What is the reality around it?</p>
<p>More of these questions will be answered in our services in the coming weeks. I want to urge you to become part of what BLAZE TEAM is doing in these days. It is always funny for me to see believers entangled in the matters of future.</p>
<p>Someone once said. There are those that change the future and those who speculate on what it can become.</p>
<p>What type of person are you.</p>
<p>Join BLAZE TEAM as we enter the frontier of changing the future by engaging God&#8217;s plan for this wonderful country and our wonderful world!</p>

<li><strong>From the fruit of man&#8217;s mouth his stomach is satisfied </strong>
<ul>
<li>Pro 18:20-24</li>
<li>In      proverbs we all know that the Bible is clear that your words    produce    fruit. It took me a long time to realize that my stomach    (desire)  will   be filled by the words I speak.</li>
<li>This litterally   means  that  what I  say will meet my desire. Thus, if I  speak about   how bad  things  is  around me&#8230;. I will have it.</li>
<li>We   encountered a term  &#8220;sucky   wife&#8221;. Simply explained&#8230;. If I talk    about my sucky wife, my  life will   be filled with a sucky wife.</li>
<li>Stop   speaking what you  see  infront  of you, and start speaking what  you   believe God whants  you to  have.  Speak what you believe God has    promised you and you will  eat His   promises!</li>
<li>John 7:38</li>

<li>The reason why we fear poverty is because it causes a lack. Lack of honour. Lack of respect. Lack of joy.</li>
<li>For     this reason many believers can not give, when it seems like it   might    lead them to poverty. If they feel the giving will cause  poverty.</li>

<li><strong>God wants us to stop being the object of a miracle and rather be the source. </strong>
<ul>
<li>So    many times we as believers constantly ask God for the miracles in   our   lives. This is not necesarily a problem, but because the above     mentality (ignoring problems) we can never be the source of miracles. We     should be the ones by which the world receives the miracle. We  should    be the ones showing the miracles to people.</li>
<li>We should  be   praying for the sick, so they will be healed, not be in  the que  for   healing. Healthy lifestyle and God&#8217;s healing years ago  should  keep us   out of the line, not constantly in the line.</li>
<li>We should be in front praying for the sick, broken hearted, deaf, blind and poor people.</li>
<li>WE    ARE THE ONES that have CHRIST. He is living in us. Instead we  look    just as empty as the world, at times. Constantly surviving! It is  the    mindset of poverty.</li>
<li>The attitude of self-focus is a product of the poverty mentality.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>

<li><strong>We have to learn to do the small things right, every day. </strong>
<ul>
<li>Poverty   mindset, like explained above wants you to think that you  can just   keep on living your life, the way you want and God will  miraculously   solve everything around you.</li>
<li>God wants to teach you that inspite of things that go wrong He wants to show you how to handle all those things.</li>
<li>These   small things or actions you take out of obedience will resolve  the   small things in life and actually make you strong. It destroys the    small enemies that eat the harvest.</li>
