Off The Grid

By Christina

imageMaybe blogging doesn’t have to be so long. I say too much most days. I do. Believe it or not, most days I want to be quiet. Say nothing, sit back and absorb. Today I wanted to drive. Til I couldn’t no more.

He Is For All

Earthen Vessels

By Christina

imageI loved having the opportunity to hear two dynamic messages yesterday. We can preach certainly, but to sit and hear other vessels like this… is simply amazing! Powerful! Impacting!

Iron sharpens iron again.
This message is by Senior Pastor Abbelane Rivera; Emmanuel International Ministries.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

This servant shares:

You have to understand your design.

“But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us.”
‭‭II Corinthians‬ ‭4:7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

A lot of times we see only see the vessel and what we don’t see is the Architect.

The Architect sees the building that is happening. We see the rocks and the rubble. Here God makes a design of that vessel. We will say that the Architect is Jesus Christ. Continue reading

We have already doubled. God is good.

From Pastor Yeskeila Rivera

In order to activate those gifts that God gives, you must become connected.

Connections lead to power, overall connections lead to increase.

WHO ARE YOU CONNECTED TO? Continue reading
