Prayer & Petition

HEY GUYS KEEP CCN DAVENPORT IN PRAYER!

I sent out the petition to become an official chapter on the campus. Stay in prayer with me. Excited what God is doing. We are the laborers and God is Sovereign.

He is faithful to save, but we must put our hands to the plow and work.
Everything we do is for the glory of God... everything we do is for the glory of God!

1 Corinthians 10:31
Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.


Being a Christian we have a HIGH standard to uphold the image God. That is what CCN loves, preaching the GREATEST Gospel too give God Almighty all the glory, because He deserves it. Do what we are told.
"Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation” Mark 16:15.

Whatever will happen, God knows what He is doing. We must always keep this mind. God is Adonai, master and owner.

Romans 8:28
And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

Sharing My Faith/CCN Davenport

Sharing My Faith

Hey, guys what’s up? I finally got a new video up. I spoke to my communication class about my experiences and goals. So I so spoke of CCN. It was fun; I shared what I could share, because I know they could only take so much.
It was hard because I wanted to say so much out of excitement, you can hear me stumble over my words. I love talking about God, and when I’m on a 3 minute time restraint, I get anxious. At least I know what to say and do next time.


Pray for my class, because I never had a class that showed that they cared for each other. Really 2 students said they “love us (classmates).” We are really open in that class it’s awesome.
Also pray because there were 3 girls that wanted to know more. One lady God was touching her heart, because she said “If I ask for forgiveness, and have backslidden, if I die, will I go to Hell?” I bluntly said “Yes.” Her face went blank. I went on to tell her, “If you are in court and you tell the judge, “I’m sorry,” the just being bound to the law, he still has to carry out the sentence.” I told her she needs to repent and she can’t only believe she needs to put her trust in Jesus Christ. Concern was written on her face
. Pray for her, because I was going to talk to her after class, but she had to storm to work.

Walk In the Light

1 John 1:5-10
5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.


3 parts in the message of 1 John chapter 1:
1. v. 5 gives the message that Christ has given to John. God is Light, in Him there is no darkness at all. (Theological foundation)
2. V.6 & 7 describe the particle implications of this message (particle application)
3. v. 8-10 clarify a possible misunderstanding of these applications. (Necessary clarification)

Note: I am not going to touch everything at this time.

John talks about fellowship very seriously because it is important to know and understand. To really have Christian fellowship you need to talk about Jesus Christ and what He has done and what He means to you. This is fellowship. Not just getting together and talking about other subject. Fellowship is CHRIST centered conversations. This should be practiced daily. It enables you to see Christ working in other people’s life. The testimony of Christ brings encouragement.
It brings common desire for God on the table. Whatever that may by, or whom that may be with. Even if there isn’t a common desire it will drive you to their understanding of God, hopefully it will do the same to them.
It is sad to see that fellowship is labeled as something else, rather than what it should be. Sometimes it doesn’t happen purposefully. You or your friend can become easily distracted. Bringing in worldly objects and subjects will make you stray.
Proverbs 7:25
Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.

Important note is that there is NO DARKNESS IN GOD (v.5). Knowing you should be fellowshipping about Christ and not doing so is abandoning the implications in verse 6 & 7. Knowing this it can be fixed and reapplied. Don’t misquote me or take me out of contexts. Its okay to talk about other things, but what is the center of our life should be talked about the most, and that is Jesus. If it’s not maybe you might need to reevaluate your walk.
If you sports you will talk sports, if you love cheerleading, you will talk about cheerleading. If you the love the Lord Jesus Christ, you will talk about Jesus Christ. Again, reevaluate your salvation if you are not doing so. If have no one to talk to that’s understandable, but if you do and you don’t maybe you are not walking the light.
In verse 7 it tells us “But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light.” “Walking in the light means living under the controlling desire for God instead of the world—the kinds of life you live if you see things the way God sees them and share his values. But note, it is a "walk"—that is, a way of life, not just an idea, not just a "position" in Christ (as some might say). Walk means life.”1
As easy as it was strayed, as easy it can return. Ridding of those things and once again placing God first will get you back on path. Although it might be hard, it will be worth it. Remember everything is for the glory of God.
Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
