A long and winding road led us up the mountain under heavy
skies and a biting wind to the beautiful Heavens View Mountain Resort. Brethren
from the many True Light and End Times Talks, Northern Suburbs and Southfield
Fellowships all gathered together on the Galgenberg just the other side of McGregor,
filled with an earnest expectation.
In hindsight no one could have anticipated how clearly and
unmistakably and powerfully the Lord was to speak to us. Comments on the
ministry included words like “intense”, “gentle”,” loving” and still others
were left speechless and overwhelmed by the power of the Lord addressing
Himself directly to our hearts.
The searchlight of God’s Word exposed deep and hidden paths
in our hearts, areas we had long avoided in fear of what lay buried there. He
called us to sanctification even as Samson was set apart unto God, a Nazarite
from his mother’s womb, warning us of the danger of defiling ourselves with the
world even as Samson defiled himself with Delilah and when he thought to shake
himself as before he wist not that the Lord was departed from him. 
Many came forward and were held up in prayer as they cleared
themselves before God and renounced the hidden things of the heart,
recommitting themselves to Him. The call on all our lives was clear, forgetting
those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before;
we must press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in
Christ Jesus.
This weekend was not about renewal and recommitment, it was
about getting on with the job, arising and setting our hands to the plough and
not looking back! For this reason the Lord poured out his Spirit baptizing some
in the Holy Ghost, who spoke in tongues for the first time while others he
refreshed and opened wells long since gone dry so that the living water may
flow again!
This account does not and can not do justice to the scope
and measure with which the Lord spoke; you just had to be there! Please
contribute your testimonies either by commenting on this post or via Email.
Pictures from the weekend would also be appreciated but please resize to a few KB’s
and send as a JPG, PING,or GIF file.
Brilliant! Awesome to read how God is working!
ReplyDeleteComing together as a group of men up there in the mountains for the weekend ,breaking away from the hustle and bustle of city life alone was great.But to top that and hear directly from the Lord that we need to show our faithfulness and commitment to our High calling that we have been called to in Christ Jesus and that it is more than being a Nazarite unto God as Samson was.It is being those who have been made the son's of God through Christ Jesus and now have the ministry of reconciliation.It was a real challenge to understand that we are not here playing church,but are those who represent God's Love ,Light and Life to a lost world .
ReplyDeleteThe love and unity amongst all that were there was awesome to see and receive.On Sunday we left with a responsibility to the call which requires us to purge ourselves from that which represents the old man,laying off the things that so easily prevent us from fulfilling our High calling & putting on the full Armour of God whereby we shall be able to stand.
This blog is fantastic - will others be able to submit relevant blogs here?
ReplyDeleteYes, all are welcome to contribute content that is relevant to the True Light Meetings, End Time Talks and the Mission to Africa. These submissions can be made via the highlighted email link at the bottom of the Men's Camp Post.
DeleteSo what can I really say.... Nothing would do any justice to the Lord other than express my over whelming love and gratitude to Him for being in my life and to experience such love.
ReplyDeleteTo all the brethren that attended the men's camp thank you for a life changing weekend,and to top it all off and make it that much more memorable is that I was filled with the Holy Spirit and had the blessing of being able to speak in tongues, it is something to experience and behold how amazing the Lord works in our lives.
