Takin' It To The Streets

Matthew 11:12 -  And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.

The Potter's House Christian Church of Pasadena TX is on the move! God promised that we would win the city in His name, but it's a battle that we must fight! Just as God didn't simply hand over Canaan to the children of Israel, He isn't going to hand over our city to us, not without a fight!

Isaiah 59:19- So shall they fear
The name of the Lord from the west,
And His glory from the rising of the sun;
When the enemy comes in like a flood,
The Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him.

 That standard was the Word of God itself, and we waived it with honor and humility last Saturday Night! To put it plainly, we took the Lord at His Word, and went to a local movie theater in Pasadena. The aim was to outreach, and get the bullhorn blowing the gospel! We actually have a karaoke machine that we were also going to use for a rap attack but when we arrived, it didn't work properly. We didn't give up though, people were still determined to outreach and lead people to Christ...a brother in the church, (Felipe), got an idea - he told me to hook my phone up to his sound system to play the instrumentals; he has a very loud sound system. After this was arranged, we used the bullhorn as a microphone, and voila, it was on and poppin'!!

God had given us absolute dominion in that parking lot! People were getting saved all around us, and even begin to help us pass out fliers and witness! It was amazing! Another brother in the church, (Rene), actually stood on top of Felipe's car and started street preaching!! You could actually hear him all the way up to the front of the movie theater - people were staring at us, driving through, even the police stopped by to check on us, making sure that WE were protected!!  HA! I give the Lord all the glory and praise for what He did that night...

Acts 17: 6b, '“These who have turned the world upside down have come here too."

This is our mantra, this is our calling, to take our city and turn it upside down for the gospel of Jesus Christ! The heart of Jesus, His passion has always been the souls of men and women...I have come to know that sinners are not the enemy...they are the prize!

Continue to pray for us, as we take our city in Jesus' name!

Uncertainty

Romans 8:24-28 24 For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees? 25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance. 26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God. 28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. The things we don’t know. You know you’re in the presence of a fool, when they pretend to know things and no nothing. It’s alright to admit that we don’t know. Humility can take you places your talent, gifts, and pride won’t be able. Being saved by hope doesn’t contradict the truth that w

Misplaced Love

2 Samuel 12:7-10  7 Then Nathan said to David, “You are the man! Thus says the Lord God of Israel: ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul. 8 I gave you your master’s house and your master’s wives into your keeping and gave you the house of Israel and Judah.  And if that had been too little, I also would have given you much more!  9 Why have you despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in His sight? You have killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword; you have taken his wife to be your wife and have killed him with the sword of the people of Ammon. 10 Now therefore, the sword shall never depart from your house, because you have despised Me, and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your wife.’ Lust is a very powerful thing…this is beyond something sexual…I know that tends to be the preconceived idea whenever you hear that term, however, lust is much deeper than that; sexuality is only one of the ways lust can manifest itself

Merry Christmas

Jeremiah 29: 11 - '...to give you a future and a hope...' Once upon a mountain top, 3 little trees stood and dreamed of what they would become. The first tree looked up to the stars saying, "I want to hold treasure; I want to be covered with gold and precious stones!" "I'll be the most beautiful treasure chest the world has ever seen!" The second tree said, "I want to be traveling mighty waters and powerful kings, I'll be the most powerful ship ever built!"  The third tree stood tall, gazing into heaven saying, "I do not wish to leave this mountain at all...instead I want to be so tall, that when people from below gaze upon me, they will look to God." Years had past and one day, 3 woodcutters climbed the mountain top...the first woodcutter saw the first tree and said, "This is perfect for me." With one swipe of the blade, the tree fell. "Now I shall become a great treasure chest," the first tree sa
