God ordained divine destruction: The massive flood in Noah's day killed everyone but 8 people, the total destruction of every living soul & creature in Sodom & Gomorrah, the 3.5 years of famine in the land in the times of Joseph, the fall of Babylon…

God ordained to destroy Nineveh for it's evil but his will was changed when Nineveh fasted & turned from their evil ways. Jonah spoke what HaElohim said to speak: in 40 days Nineveh would be overthrown (divine destruction), so let neither man nor animal taste anything; let them not eat, nor drink (water); But let man & animals be covered in sackcloth, & cry mightily to Elohim; yea, let them turn away from his evil way, turn from treating people wrong or violently. Who can tell if HaElohim will turn & relent, & turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not? The people of Nineveh believed from the least to the greatest fasting & put on sackcloth. Even the King of Nineveh got off of his throne, took his robe off, covered himself in sackcloth, & sat in ashes. The fast was proclaimed all throughout Nineveh & all repented & fasted. God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; & God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do to them, & he did it not. Nineveh was saved.

Brothers & sisters be warned. Nineveh was a "great city." The people were known for being exceedingly cruel. Nineveh was accessed by fifteen massive gates; each one named after a false "god." The Lord was going to destroy Nineveh. They did believe the prophesy by Jonah to be true. The King knew they needed to honestly repent or they would be utterly destroyed in 40 days. He knew this was the word of the Lord. Know this to be the word of the Lord it is time to repent & proclaim a fast, righteous judgement is looming at your door.

Sun, 20 Nov 2011 08:37:00 -0800 You are worth more than many sparrows... http://chreatina.com/you-are-worth-more-than-many-sparrows http://chreatina.com/you-are-worth-more-than-many-sparrows

Sparrows

Chris, Brandon, and I were driving to the bridge with the purpose of giving out Starbucks food. Chris went to Starbucks & they at the end of the day give it to him for the purpose of distributing it out to the homeless. As we pull up to the Bridge there is a young man digging through the trash can for food. We get out of the car & I wave at him. Chris opens the trunk. The man walks over & says I know you. Funny enough two months ago I went out to the bus station/train station in downtown Dallas to hand out bottled water & living water. This same man, named Rachid, was the first person I talked to on the streets about his destiny in Christ & how Christ loved him so much he sent us to give him living water. This is my second night out with the CFNI students & at a totally different location, The Bridge, & he's the first person that comes up to us. Coincidence I think not.

This time no water but plenty of food. We get out the food and show the love of Christ in deed & truth. Sincerely he sees how Christ loves him each time we meet up & Christ meets his need over & beyond. Chris & Brandon fill his backpack overflowing with food. Rachid mentions he's in a desert place & needed this. The scripture on my heart to share with him is Isaiah 35. I read the scripture & put his name within the scripture: The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for Rachid; and Rachid's desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. He shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given to him, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, he shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God. Strengthen Rachid's weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. Say to Rachid's fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you.

Chris then reads to him Mat 6:25 Telling Rachid about how the Sparrows don't worry. That the Lord feeds them & there is no need to worry. "Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Is not Rachid much better than they?" He asks Rachid if he is better than many sparrows. Rachid's response tore at my heart. His reply crushed me he said, "no". He didn't recognize his own worth. Chris & Brandon continued to minister the simple gospel message that yes he is worth more than many sparrows as evidence of us being there when he was in need not once but twice. It wasn't a matter of being in the right place at the right time. It was so much more than that. He didn't know we were coming. He wasn't expecting God to provide food for him. He was digging in the trash & Christ said "I have more for Rachid. I have so much more for my son." Did I know I'd ever see Rachid again, no. Was I expecting to see him that night, no. It was Christ that ordered our steps that night. He loves Rachid with an everlasting love & wants us all to know we are worth more than many sparrows. Rachid gave his life to Christ & immediately wanted to be reconciled to his mother. Ask her for forgiveness. Brandon offered to give Rachid bus money which blew Rachid away that we'd give him food, money, & the best of all Christ his Jehovah Jireh. 

We went on ministering pierced in our hearts from Rachid's response. I'm still moved by my lord & saviors love for Rachid, that he'd move so profoundly in his life through simple things. I know he will continue to bring other laborers onto his path for he his called, he does have a destiny, & our Father has his son. Angels are rejoicing in heaven.

A PRAYER TO END HUMAN TRAFFICKING:
This contemporary ballet work is composed entirely of live recordings from the spontaneous worship and prayer sessions at the International House of Prayer in Kansas City, a place where singers and musicians are committed to 24 hour night and day intercession in the spirit of the Tabernacle of David. The piece displays raw uncensored passion for the freedom and deliverance of those held captive and proclaims their healing and restoration. It is a powerful work that represents the Votum Dance Company vision to present dance as a form of prayer, believing that when we dance, we are praying. And when we pray, the God of the Universe moves at the very sound of our voice.
Choreography by: Artistic Director, Cindy Kumer 
 
THE NATIVITY BALLET:
This classical ballet work first premiered in 2009 in Little Rock, Arkansas during a multi-state tour. The ballet set to a collection of beautiful symphonic and choral melodies and hymns that are featured during the holiday season. It begins when a homeless person rummaging through the trash, finds a book of The Nativity Story that was thrown away after a family's holiday celebration. As the homeless person opens the book, the story comes to life around him, and he has an encounter with the Messiah who has come to redeem all of mankind.
Choreography by: Artistic Director, Cindy Kumer

Tue, 01 Feb 2011 23:49:22 -0800 Intruder Alert: Want to hear my funny story that happened just a few nights ago? http://chreatina.com/intruder-alert-want-to-hear-my-funny-story-th http://chreatina.com/intruder-alert-want-to-hear-my-funny-story-th
Intruder_alert

My story is about my house and originally told by IM to another friend
for a late night laugh, here it is again:

I came home to get my bike when I realized there were alot of wasps
around my house
As I did a perimeter search for the nest I realized the house on the
same property of mine (it's vacant) had some open windows in it, as
well as the downstairs room to my apartment. So I get a little nervous
with the bugs and finding out that my place has been unlocked. I go
upstairs to my apartment and I get attacked by 5 wasps.

I killed them all, and called my landlord who couldn't come out. so I
called a friend whom I begged to go lock up the other house and
downstairs rooms.

No battle wounds just dead wasps but that's not the end of the story
nor the funny part. But I was a ninja killing those things shouting
bring it on you're going down wasps.

Ok the funny part is I had my friend come over & it was already
dark...and I didn't have a flashlight with batteries but he did decide
to take my Mag light as a weapon just in case. I did have this wind up
lantern. We used it to search the house for intruders & lock it up.
Made a constant rrrrrrrrrrrcrankrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr sound over and over to
keep the light on. Very Stealth.

Well we go to the front door & I don't have any key for it, and it's
locked so we go to the back and again it's pitch dark.

Going into the house we are like cops searching it. We clear all the
rooms moving to the front of the house and locking the windows as we
move through the house. My friend calls out randomly, "Any one here."
He also mentions if they were here my cranking the light would scare
them away. By this time we realize we can just turn the lights on.

We get to the front door and its unlocked! I totally freak out & call
the cops thinking someone left the house as we were searching it &
possibly went into my apartment since I left it open.

I call the police report a break in:

The Richardson Police come out like total combat style driving up with
guns and all.

Tell us to wait in our car that was in the drive way while they search
the house. They get to the front door and it's locked

About this time I realize I'm a doufus…and so does my friend. We
decide to play it cool and not mention to the cops our mistake.

They go through the back of the house and search it coming out the
front with a funny look on there face and here it is…the door stays
unlocked from the inside and auto locks the outside. I was the biggest
goober ever. At least I killed some wasps though.

My shadow was the scariest thing in that house! Don't tell my landlord. LOL

Thu, 27 Jan 2011 21:49:20 -0800 Riding By Faith http://chreatina.com/riding-by-faith http://chreatina.com/riding-by-faith
Workout

There is a race in the Keys for MS. 150 miles in 2 days. I'm really
tempted to get with it and join in the cause on a personal note.
Homestead is where I was born so it would be nice to ride through it
and My dad has MS. It's in May so I have time. I'm going to break out
the bike, since it has been warm lately, and see how she does. Whoa
150 miles is a lot to train for. They at least on the website give you
a training schedule to give yourself an idea of how to prepare for it.
http://bikefls.nationalmssociety.org/site/PageServer?pagename=BIKE_FLS_Training

Route options
• 50 or 75 miles (Saturday)
• 35 or 75 miles (Sunday)
• 5 mile option for Kids & Family Ride
