Here is a short clip of my time in Rwanda.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I do, still everytime I watch it.

Jesus is still mighty to save!
Last night we had our first 'Generation' youth meeting for 2008. It was a powerful night where God put many messages into the night through everyone who participated and it all came together amazingly.
After the meeting, we had supper and I felt I had to catch up with one of the younger guys who wants to become a Junior Soldier. I started asking him what it meant to him to be a Junior Solder and it all went from there...
It came to my attention during our conversation that he had 'bashed' his Mum last Friday and from there he broke down and said that he couldn't do this by himself anymore, he needs God to take his anger from him and help him with his problems at school and his family situation, and his list of problems went on.

It was a beautiful moment when this 13 year old confessed all his sins and also confessed his need for Jesus.
I helped him through the salvation prayer and he became a new creation in Christ. Can I ask for you to please pray for this youngster, he has a very hard life, in his family situation but also at school and a few other big issues in his life.
Jesus is might to save - Hallelujah!! It was an privilege to be there and lead this youngster to Jesus.

Mr Rudd, claim this land....
God put on my heart the other day, that Australia is stagnant water, but we should be a living, flowing river full of life - but we're not! Why?God told me that our new Prime Minister claims that he is 'Christian' and that he needs to get bold and not be afraid of proclaiming that on the country of Australia's behalf. What I mean is that Kevin Rudd needs to proclaim Australia as Christian country and as God's land.
If 'Kevin '07' does this, you won't believe what happens next!! Australia will become that living flowing river of abundant life and the country will become something we only dream that it could have been!
Our neighbouring countries will also be impacted - for their benefit - and God will finally fulfill the great prophecy - The great Southland of the Holy Spirit. We will go from strength to strength and Satan's dominion with all his false religions will be crushed by God's own hand in this country and also particularly in Indonesia!
Kevin Rudd when you read this next - get radical in your faith in Jesus and claim this land in the Name of Jesus and consecrate it for the glory of God!! For all our sakes and the salvation of the world, do it!
So on that day Moses swore to me, 'The land on which your feet have walked will be your inheritance and that of your children forever, because you have followed the LORD my God wholeheartedly.'

Mid Week Commissioning
Last night we had a mid week commissioning! How awesome is that! Another 4 Captains were added to the 29 from last year's session and I believe there are another 2 possibly this Sunday.
The hall at Thornbury was packed with easily over 100 people in attendance for this historical occassion. It was an encouraging night with many passionate Officers and Solders in attendance.
I was honoured to meet Captain Stephen Courts parents who were also attending, and I was also blown away when Mrs Court said that she is a regular reader of this blog, so I send out a big hello!! I didn't get a chance to say goodbye, so I'll take this opportunity to say 'goodbye' also and that it was an honour to meet you both!
The night finished with a great celebration over supper with great company, with an amazing network of great Salvationists. I wish we could have more mid week meetings like this, with a mirrored attendance also - why not make it a monthly thing and we can move it around from Corps to Corps to host it?! Something for the Territory/Division to think about.
God bless the newest 4 Captains and may he send you out to change the world in Jesus' Name.

"Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.""

Christ is all - yes, all in all!
Song 489 - Salvation Army Song Book:
I bring to thee my heart to fill
I bring to thee my heart to fill;
I feel how weak I am, but still
To thee for help I call.
In joy or grief, to live or die,
For earth or Heaven, this is my cry,
Be thou my all in all.
Chorus
Christ is all, yes, all in all.
My Christ is all in all.
2.Around me in the world I see
No joy that turns my soul from thee;
Its honors fade and fall;But with thee,
though I mount the cross,
I count it gain to suffer loss,
For thou art all in all.
3.I've little strength to call my own,
And what I've done, before thy throne
I here confess, is small;
But on thy strength. O God, I lean,
And through the blood that makes me clean,
Thou art my all in all.
4.No tempest can my courage shake,
My love from thee no pain can take,
No fear my heart appall;
And where I cannot see I'll trust,
For then I know thou surely must
Be still my all in all.
Herbert Howard Booth (1862-1926) (verses),
W.H. Williams (chorus)
"What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ"
