One wintry night
David Phelps - One Wintry Night Lyrics
Just a simple stable, looking back it does seem odd
That God Himself would enter there inside
One wintry night the starry universe
Went whirling upside down
And everything that was, was not the same
One wintry night a supernatural birth
Left heaven and earth spellbound
As the Mysterious Omniscient took a name
Darkness fled from Light; wrong was made right
In just one wintry night
Just a simple carpenter who found himself in love
With a girl bearing the Child of the Divine
Just a simple manger yet somehow it was enough
To accomadate the God of space and time
One wintry night the starry universe
Went whirling upside down
And everything that was, was not the same
One wintry night a supernatural birth
Left heaven and earth spellbound
As the Mysterious Omniscient took a name
Darkness fled from Light; wrong was made right
In just one wintry night
Don't you know the angels were breathless
As He stepped down off His throne
Into the cosmos His own hands had made
Don't you know that darkness protested
As its reign was overthrown
And victory was declared with love's display
One wintry night the starry universe
Went whirling upside down
And everything that was, was not the same
One wintry night a supernatural birth
Left heaven and earth spellbound
As the Mysterious Omniscient took a name
Darkness fled from Light; wrong was made right
In just one wintry night
One wintry night upsidedown
One wintry night was spellbound
One wintry night upsidedown
One wintry night was spellbound

Important dates every catholic has to know
Learnt in church history class - you can look up for references online . textbook - Christianity through Centuries
Important dates of every catholic needs to know
Assumption of Mary by Pope Pius XII on November 1, 1950, in the Apostolic Constitution Munificentissimus Deus by exercising papal infallibility.
Immaculate Conception was of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Pius IX in 1854 , meaning that Mary was conceived without original sin.
In 495 A.D., Pope Gelasius issued a decree which rejected this teaching as heresy and its proponents as heretics. In the sixth century, Pope Hormisdas also condemned as heretics those authors who taught the doctrine of the Assumption of Mary. The early Church clearly considered the doctrine of the Assumption of Mary to be a heresy worthy of condemnation. Here we have “infallible” popes declaring something to be a heresy. Then in 1950, Pope Pius XII, another “infallible” pope, declared it to be official Roman Catholic doctrine
“And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto Jesus, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked. But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.” (Luke 11:27-28)

PRAYER is not answered coz of our asking but cox of redemption
Praying again and again and pray without ceasingIt says that more that what were pay to... What prayer itself does to us
MISSIONS
Seeing the fallen world thru the eyes of God
Gods work
For usIn usThru usOUR WORK FOR GODIs the eternal love of which God is the author and finisher and so nothing can start in god and end in us rather reciprocated to God of which God is the finisher.
LOOK AT PEOPLE BY FAITH
When people are good or fail... Look at them with the virtue of God in them which can happen Olly thru faith
The more the offence... The more the holy spirit was to accomplish in me.
We cannot change anybodyWe cannot change myself
Rap
Success,
we think to be the doingGod thinks of faithfulness
In crisis
God has not made a provision to retreatIn armor of God there is no part for the backDo I get offendedHow easily do I get offendedWhat kind of people
The measure of negativity in my mouth is the direct proportion to the lack of provision that I receive from god to myself
Not give God an opportunity to deliver
Moses called a burning bush vs people burning in the furnace of afflictionBefore I have an encounter with enemies of God.. God needs to encounter meThe crisis we are brought to in our life... We are called to freshness... Why?? Crisis cannot be give thru mechanical stuff but rather mystery
My faithfulness to you will determine the truthfulness of my word
There cannot be faithful ness without doctrine..
Learn how to take the offense to God
Mature marriage takes its offences to God and peopleIf I don't receive the correction thru the word.... But cross will anyways happen they humility
Disciples fled from the cross
When I flee from very things that God called me to.. I'll miss out the amazing privilege of maturing me.Don't settle to hearing good and faithful servant now but settle to the comfort of the holy spiritNone of us are worthy of the work we are called to but god appreciate us and do I in my dealings
Don't be trapped in montane thingsIn your offense never seek to be accepted in a soulish attachment
Grace of God has preserved usThe longer your in the ministry the more offence God let's in us
The offence in my life should welcome the plan that God had in my life
When we behold the king in his Beauty then I can see the vision of the far distant land
Offence comes to let the spirit be released.
Our going forward in Christ is measured with the weight of the offence that God wants to work in us.

Prayer
Below are the points I like from EM BOUNDS BOOK ON PRAYER..
Prayer outlives the lives of those who uttered them, outlive a generation, an age, a world
The mightiest successes that come to God's cause are created and carried on by prayer in God's day of power
Angelic days of powerful activity occur when the church prays
Psalm 2
Ask of me and I will give you the heathen for your inheritance - it's in our asking that we can receive
I have set my king upon my holy hill of Zion - God is able to provide mightily for us, his church, coz this dispensation is unique in having Christ seated as our king.
To a prayerful man God is present in a realized force
Prayer is gods settled and singular condition to move ahead in his kingdom

PRAYER GRASPS ETERNITY
Leonard Ravenhill
Why Revival Tarries
PRAYER GRASPS ETERNITY
"No man is greater than his prayer life. The pastor who is not praying is playing; the people who are not praying are straying. The pulpit can be a shopwindow to display one's talents; the prayer closet allows no showing off.
Poverty-stricken as the Church is today in many things, she is most stricken here, in the place of praver. We have many organizers, but few agonizers; many players and payers, few pray-ers; many singers, few clingers; lots of pastors, few wrestlers; many fears, few tears; much fashion, little passion; many interferers, few intercessors; many writers, but few fighters. Failing here, we fail everywhere.
The two prerequisites to successful Christian living are vision and passion, both of which are born in and maintained by prayer. The ministry of preaching is open to few; the ministry of prayer-the highest ministry of all human offices-is open to all. Spiritual adolescents say, "I'll not go tonight, it's only the prayer meeting." It may be that Satan has little cause to fear most preaching. Yet past experiences sting him to rally all his infernal army to fight against God's people praying. Modern Christians know little of "binding and loosing," though the onus is on us-"Whatsoever ye shall bind...” Have you done any of this lately? God is not prodigal with His power; but to be much for God, we must be much with God.
This world hits the trail for hell with a speed that makes our fastest plane look like a tortoise; yet alas, few of us can remember the last time we missed our bed for a night of waiting upon God for a world-shaking revival. Our compassions are not moved. We mistake the scaffolding for the building. Present-day preaching, with its pale interpretation of divine truths, causes us to mistake action for unction, commotion for creation, and rattles for revivals.
The secret of praying is praying in secret. A sinning man will stop praying, and a praying man will stop sinning. We are beggared and bankrupt, but not broken, nor even bent.
Prayer is profoundly simple and simply profound. "Prayer is the simplest form of speech that infant lips can try," and yet so sublime that it outranges all speech and exhausts man's vocabulary. A Niagara of burning words does not mean that God is either impressed or moved. One of the most profound of Old Testament intercessors had no language "Her lips moved, but her voice was not heard." No linguist here! There are groanings which cannot be uttered."
Are we so substandard to New Testament Christianity that we know not the historical faith of our fathers (with its implications and operations), but only the hysterical faith of our fellows? Prayer is to the believer what capital is to the business man.
Can any deny that in the modern church setup the main cause of anxiety is money? Yet that which tries the modern churches the most, troubled the New Testament Church the least. Our accent is on paying, theirs was on praying. When we have paid, the place is taken; when they had prayed, the place was shaken!
In the matter of New Testament, Spirit-inspired, hell-shaking, world-breaking prayer, never has so much been left by so many to so few. For this kind of prayer there is no substitute. We do it--or die!
