On Fire Rallies (Final Night!)

A DANGEROUS INVITATION

It was brought!!! Last night was the last night of On Fire Rallies for 2008, but I feel it was the beginning of a movement that is taking place in the hearts of many individuals. God came and God moved throughout the entire week and it was so awesome to even hear the stories that have happened already! Last nights message "A DANGEROUS INVITATION" was awesome and was spoken by the Holy Spirit.

Matthew 4:18-22 was where we went last night and read about an incredible invitation that Christ is still asking us today.

18As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. 19"Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men." 20At once they left their nets and followed him.
21Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets. Jesus called them, 22and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.

So many times we look into scripture and look at the stories throughout scripture and think that could be so cool if that kind of stuff could happen today. IT CAN! The disciples accepted an invitation that changed their lives completely and I firmly believe that Christ is challenging us today with the same crazy dangerous invitation. The question is will we accept it?

  • Will we be willing to leave everything no matter the cost?
  • Will we be willing to follow Christ not matter the cost?
  • Do we think that following Christ is something worth living and dying for?

The challenge is on! Because in scripture it also talks about the guys who had made excuses before following Christ. Are you willing? Is it worth it? Unleash the Unusual Soldier within!!!
