THE BASIC OF CHRISTIANITY

I had a wonderful time at the "Multicultural Fiesta" in Brisbane, Australia. There were over 500 people attending this special event. Many people dressed up in their national costumes. There were many cultural dance performances and games. There was a lot of laughter on the night. Pastor Wen'an Zhu is leading the afternoon service in Hope Brisbane. I took a photo with Pastor Wenan at the "Multicultural Fiesta".

In the last few weeks, I have gone back to the basics of Christianity. I took time out to be with God and be refreshed. Here are the five basic things I have been doing in the past few weeks in Brisbane.

The BASIC of Christianity

• Bible reading
  
• Adoring God through personal worship
  
• Setting new visions in God
  
• Intimacy with God through prayer
  
• Catching up with brothers and sisters in church

It is wonderful to allow God to speak to us through His living Word. God desires to speak, direct and encourage us through His Word. Worship brings us into the reality of God. It helps to take our eyes off ourselves and our problems and refocus back on the power of God. We have a visionary God. He desires to impart fresh new visions into our lives and ministry. We receive great visions as we seek God's face. Prayer is our connection to God. He desires to connect with us on a daily basis. Allow your prayer life to draw you closer to God. Finally, allow fellowship with your brothers and sisters in the local church to be the source of encouragement and spiritual growth.

The LORD has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy. Psalms 126:3

Let us believe God to do great miracles in our lives as we go back to the BASIC of Christianity.
