The title of my short message today was just; God is an Artist (Gen 1:27, Job 38:7, Song of Songs 7:1, Eph 2:10). The God of the Bible is a creative creator, cheered on by the angels and we are His master piece. Both the artist and the buyer determines the price of the painting. You are God's painting, signed by Him but was stolen by the devil and bought back through Jesus, it cost everything... He payed with His own blood and life! Just as Leonardo da Vinci's "Mona Lisa" from 1503 is priceless, so are you precious and priceless in the eyes of God. God has created and loves you and He wants you in His "gallery" (His church)! The church of the living God and Master Artist is full of colors, styles, expressions and creative joy!Even though SOS Church hasn't spent one cent on advertisement, or hasn't really started yet, people come every Sunday, we already have a momentum and the winds of the Spirit is blowing upward... We had an Esater Party this afternoon (the seventh service at a Restaurant downtown this spring), and even though many of of our people were home celebrating Easter with family, we were 115 people present (100 adults paying for the buffé)!!! There were 23 different nationalities represented today - God is really confirming the word of an international church! The feast was kissed directly from heaven and at the end two people were saved and three baptized in the Spirit! This week another person decided to be baptized in water and three wonderful Swedish immigrants applied to the new Bible school that starts this August. Spiritual "self-pressure" or gravity, Hallelujah!
What a party we had tonight! I can't stop thinking about it... Dance competition, charades, games, beautiful duett song and Easter eggs filled with candy for the kids! Warm and heartly fellowship, true Christian Koinonia and lots of Jesus joy!
See Ya!
