c2C aka "CHOSEN 2 CHANGE"

-
If you missed our c2C meeting on Saturday, May 29, 2010, you missed out on a new revelation of what our ministry name stands for. For those of you who do not know the original meaning: “c2C” stands for “connected 2 Christ.”
Our slogan: Connecting together to connect 2 Christ!
In the last couple of weeks in our 5am prayer challenge, a group of us has been asking God for Him to bring new direction, strategies and revelation for our ministry. And as we all know when God promises something in His word, He keeps. Matthew 18:19-20 it says “Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them." We have believed His word and we believe that when God speaks to one of us, He is speaking to ALL of us. In one of those prayers, God brought to Ruben’s heart the word “Commitment.” As we spoke about what God was trying to tell us, we felt strongly in our hearts that c2C’s name was truly given by God with a greater purpose and revelation.
This is where our preaching for that Saturday service came in. c2C is centered in Christ, that’s why we are connected to Him. But c2C has also been “chosen 2 change – c2c”, we have been chosen to change. We are called to be imitators of Jesus Christ and just like Jesus was the “chosen” one to “change” our destiny. Our ministry was chosen to cause change in this wicked world. In Deuteronomy it says “For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession.” We studied how God chose Moses, Abraham, Joshua, Esther, King David, etc. In Genesis 18:9 it says “For I have chosen him, so that he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just, so that the LORD will bring about for Abraham what he has promised him.” Just like Jesus and Abraham and the rest mentioned above, among many more, they had been chosen for a specific task, which would change the course of history. Just like them, c2C has been chosen to change the course of history. We are all instruments in the hands of the Lord! We have chosen to be His eyes, His mouth, His hands and feet and wherever He tells us we need to go, we will go. And whatever He tells us we need to do, we will do. Because we are connected to Christ, and Christ was chosen, we are also chosen to bring change in this age of time. But in order for us to change, we must be willing to “COMMIT.” Why? Well, because c2C also stands for “Called 2 Commit.” Ruben will go deeper into this next week.
For now, c2C just remember that YOU and I are connected to Christ and because of Him; we were chosen to change the world!
Till next time,
C2C

BE FREE FROM RESENTMENT Are you a child of divorced parents? Have you felt someone’s hate towards you? Do you remember the past with pain in your heart? Has someone hurt you? Is there someone you have NOT been able to forgive? Why all these questions you may wonder….. First let me give you scriptures: Ephesians 4:26, 30-32 Proverbs 20:22 and 29:11 James 1:19 Now the questions, if someone has hurt you, be it your parents or someone else and you find yourself saying I will forgive, but I will NOT forget, than you have not really forgiven the problem with unforgiveness is that it is like a seed that is planted and it grows in a horrible thing called resentment, sorrow, bitterness, these things are keys that give the enemy power over us, when God forgives us He does not keep reminding us of the past he erases all sin from us, no memory of how or what we did in the past remains for Him, and he asks the same of us, once we are able to forgive and truly let go of the anger and let G...

Lesson 1: "Who am I in Christ?" - Grace

In March 27, 2010 , we started our 1st lessons using the book “Who am I in Christ?” In Spanish, “Quien soy en Cristo?” written by our own Apostle: Jose Zapico and Prophet: Lidia Zapico. In order for us to understand who we are in Christ, we must first understand the gift of grace! Fortunately, the gift of Grace is FREE! Grace is defined as the free and unmerited favor or beneficence of God. It is also defined as a state of sanctification enjoyed through divine grace. Romans 5:15 says “But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God's grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many!" So there it is, because of Jesus Christ, we have received grace . Therefore, if we have accepted Jesus Christ, we have received grace and thereby we can now begin to understand who we are in Him. Before the meeting was over, we were asked a series of multiple questions to meditate: Be...
