Okay.. All the writings in Korean..
But look at this brothers.. Made me weep before the Lord at my own spiritual life...
This is a video of the Chinese during th 90's. They're gathering around in house churches.
This is what the preachers are saying, while shaking..
"We don't love the Lord enough.. Our love is so smal.." And they're all weeping.
They're crying saying "THe Lord's heart is grieved toward each man.. each soul.. Father!! Please use us!! Please use us!" And they're weeping uncontrollably.
How many times have I told Jesus "Father, I love you," but my life is nothing comparable to these Chinese Christians?
After this video the youth in our church repented for not giving it all for God.
For thinking, Yes jesus, I'll go for your righteousness and kingdom, but I still have to have food to eat...
For secretly going after the things of the world while telling ourselves we're going in to win souls when our heart is not completely there yet.
At 10 oclock. we went out to the streets.
Yesterday was a friday and friday night just 500 meters from our church is a night club night. So many people gather for nightclubs. THey're waiting for their friends. There are usually about 10 foreginers waiting around, about 200 koreans..
We were so joyful for the Lord having saved us we jumped up and down. Shouting at the top of our lungs, dancing with a joy that was beyond us. Playing two guitars we sang Korean songs saying "Jesus is our rock, there is none like Him."
Songs like "many people leave Jesus, but the JEsus that I met was true love and hope.. my everything. I like Jesus, I like Jesus so much. As Peter conffessed before Jesus. I love Jesus!"
We often went out to the streets to proclaim the gospel. But never have we gone out there with this much joy. With such burning hearts.. We shouted. "nothing can fill you expect Jesus Christ."
Yes, we've shouted this message before. But it was so different cause we were satisfied in Jesus. Before it was like "Jesus should be the first.. Nothing should fill you expect Jesus" but at the moment it was so true to say that nothing could fill us other than Jesus.
We were so happy. Jumping up and down with so much sweat pouring down. Exhasted in our breath, but so happy.
A man came up and gave each of us orange juice. We felt that this was the Lords love and appreciation for us.
The people were all listening and seeing that there was something different. That here was true joy. Usually we are left ignored, but our songs were so full of joy of him being with us that they could see the truth.
That the joy in the nightclubs is incomparable to what we had..
Oh.. it was a great night. We're planning to go out almost every evening. I'm quitting my english tutoring to evangelize and proclaim Jesus.
I would really love your prayers.
It was really a Holy Spirit thing.
It's not like we can be joyful by wanting to be joyful. My heart feels like I've met a woman of my dreams. It's trembling at a desire to proclaim Jesus. As I'm worshiping, I just want to get out there. All my brothers have similar feelings.
Like the Chinese said.. "Use us.. use us to tell others about you.."
and it started with this video.. and a great message that follwed. :)
Why do we not want to expose ourselves and reveal ourselves? Why do we comform to the ways of this world instead of stepping out and proclaiming that wonderful cross that Jesus hung on? It's because we have idols called "people lovers" because we have idols called "my self image." We don't want to be lunatics for Jesus...
Out there yesterday.. we were lunatics. And I think being crazy for Jesus had so much power..
Its great!!
Anyway, hope you guys share what I felt by watching this video.. Although it's very limited because it's in Korean. I'm convinced that A persons who's expereinced the sorrows that are shown in their faces will know what they're feeling just by the pictures..
I wasn't actually planning to write all this.. Just tell you guys about the video. Anyway. Tell me if the video's working allright?
