Be The Change Agent

I'm just got back from a music training session for the youth, I'm kinda tired in physically, but I'm so encourage and excited in spiritually.

Actually this music training session is not that kind of very professional music course. Rick and me didn't went through that kinda very intense professional music training. All we have is about the passionate heart to music, and I think this is the most important factor that should be take place.

We are just playing a role as a facilitator to influence them regarding the idea, creativity of playing music, the right attitude towards music; to lead them how to pursue music in proper direction.

And thank God that they are keep growing. Most of the time I feel very awesome to see them keep on being matured not only in musical context, but also personalities, attitude, self esteem......etc.

But tonight the Lord is doing something very differently and yet very remarkable to us. Rick sensed the Lord want to anoint the youth to be the change agent for their century.

We are called to be the "church" of Christ, as originally in Greek root word meaning "gather". It is meaning of a group of people gather together and strategist to serve the purpose of God.

With here, I would like to highlight 2 major point.

First,

"Church" doesn't mean a 4 wall building, that letting a group of so called "Christian" people gather within it, and doing some activities, program, religious ritual......etc.

"Church" is people, not the building, nor any congregation, or denomination.

Matt 18:20 revealed to us that wherever people are, wherever Jesus is, and wherever the "church" is. And yet the Lord Himself always referring us to the context of Kingdom of God, and only speak about "church" not more than 10 times.

But, what am I trying to say is not to ignore the context of "church", but rather to get back to the true meaning and function of "church".

Yes, the world need "church", but not in the misconception context. We need people of God ("church") that is truly devoted to God, empowered by the power of God, to emerge and penetrate into every corner of society to manifest the justice, hope, and love of God. Every single individual of the children of God have to stand firm in their position at their family, residential neighborhood community, schools or campuses, workplace......etc.

More precisely, we must disperse into 7 area of the society likewise:

Art & Entertainment

Business & Finance

Cultural & Religion

Distribution & Media

Education

Family

Government

These are the basic main structure of our society, of course each of every one of the sector can be derive to other relevant sector.

This will lead us to another very crucial thing------Leadership

Without leadership we will ruin a lot of things, and yet, yes, the TRUE Leadership must take place in order to mobilize God's children to emerge and disperse in the society to fight for the justice, righteousness, freedom, peace, which all this work rooted in the Love of the Lord.

I will share more about the true leadership in future.

Second,

We are called to be the children of God that need to fulfill 2 main things in our entire life, no matter what we are doing or dealing with.

Matt 22:37-38 is the first and greatest commandment for us to love God wholeheartedly.

Matt 22:39 command us to love others like loving ourselves.

This is the 2 greatest purpose which God required us to be fulfill.

We don't want to do all the so called "good deed things", or "meaningful things".

We want to do right things in Lord's sight.

Because doing Good doesn't mean doing Right; but doing Right will always lead to Good matters.

It is the Lord that make sure all the right things that He command us to do is for the sake of His good deed to the world, His beloved creation.

Rick and me ended the music session with praying for them and anointing them in the name of Jesus Christ with the authority and power of apostolic to be the Change Agent of the Lord, to bring transformation to wherever they go.

We wanna be.............

The History Maker in this land.............

We wanna be.............

The speaker of Truth to all mankind.............
