True Worshippers

Have you bowed the knee to the ruling Greek culture, or are you a son of Zion who will stand against this culture which says that it is all about me? This is just one of the topics we covered this week of teachings on worship with pastor/songwriter Saul Morales. We talked about what true worship is and how we could be transformed into true worshippers. True worshippers are those who seek first and foremost the glory and majesty of the King. The problem is that in our culture which is majorly Greek it is taught that the only thing important in this world is oneself. What’s more this culture has also infiltrated the Church in some points and taught us that worship is about what we can get out of it when in all reality this view is completely unbiblical. We are to worship Him for His Glory because He is worthy of it, not because of what we can receive.

On another note we have been talking more and more about Outreach and had our first Outreach team meetings this week. In our meeting we shared a bit of the vision for the base plant and a little bit of what the Outreach would look like in relation to what we have to do for the plant. This Outreach is going to be different from most others in that we will actually be working on getting a brand new base started and as such we will be doing things a little different. For instance we will have a lot of needs starting this base and we will be asking everyone to use the resources available to them to help provide for these needs. We will also be asking the students to help us do things like talk to realtors and get settled in our new base location. Although we know that parts of this Outreach will be difficult, we know that it will be good because this is what God is calling us to.

So now that we know the locations and teams we can all start raising the money we will need for the Outreaches, which will be another step of faith for all of us. Please be praying for all of us to have all the financial provision we need for the work God has put before us. The Mexico City Outreach cost is going to be 15,000 Pesos, which is about $1,200 US. Please pray for God to provide this amount (and more) for me and also please ask the Lord if He would like to use you to provide for some of this need.
