Campus cell; back at school again...
Alright; this week we hit the campus again in the evening in our full strength; with Bro Andrew able to attend cell from the start! *claps*
Clarice lead gel this week, for the first time, and we played “Blind tic-tac-toe”, where the folks were split into 2 groups, and our two appointed commanders, Faith and Kangaroo were to command their team members to move to their strategic places on the grid we formed on the floor in order to win the game. This, Clarice explained, was to show how one needed to live in obedience, or else, they would fall out of position, and lose their initial purpose. But of course; to obey, they needed to trust and walk by faith; not by sight.
Then Cheryl lead glorify; when we just shouted to our God and left our cares to Him, as we regained restoration in Him. Net then got us to turn to (find chapter) where Jesus knelt down and cried tears and perspired blood as He prayed before He was crucified. “Lord; if it’s your will, take this cup from me. But not my will but yours be done.” He prayed. Jesus’ complete obedience to the point of self sacrifice was what really moved me; even as we shared about how we have struggled; (or are struggling) in various areas regarding this in our small groups (I grouped with faith and Clarice. =)
Then, after committing ourselves to God in prayer, we gathered together again for prayer. This week; instead of praying for the cell (yes, that’s important) and for the church (yes, that’s really, really important) I lead the cell in praying for the CAMPUS. After all, that was why we were sitting there; why our cell was campus based. So definitely; we should function as planned by God. Back to our 4 small groups we prayed and sensed:
· Set themselves apart (3 affirmations)
· Break secular rules against evangelism
· Christians to be bold, strong, and persevering; that they’d step out in faith towards those in need
· Break mindsets against Christians
· 1 Tim 4:12
“Do not let anyone look down on you...” (2 affirmations)
· That God would cause awareness for needs (2 affirmations)
Bro Andrew went on to declare then that this was meant to be a RADICAL CELL; so we would rise up to that call. And we could start by inviting our friends for the coming Vday event; which we were geared up for through the scene of “who wants to be a millionaire”, starring Gitiong as the host, and Net as the first maid on the show.
After cell; Net, Odi, Kangaroo, Cheryl, Gitiong, Mocca, Bro Andrew and I scooted downstairs to play with sparklers! It was really fun; and by God’s grace we had our fun in peace =P So that was cell!
