Genesis 12:1
The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.
This is 2015; A year of new things, promotions and breakthroughs.
The Lord has been so faithful to me; enabling me to take part and work in this vision of multiplication He started; Winning the lost and making disciples for Him. For 10 years that BCC embraced the G12 Vision, I have seen so many changes in our church, in peoples lives and of course in my life. Through the G12 Vision, I was trained and equipped for a greater purpose; discipled thoroughly by people whom God placed over my life. By the grace of God, I am also qualified to pass on what I had received to the lives whom God entrusted to me. Finding and building my team of 12 was not easy as one,two,three. It went through a lot of process, prayer and hardwork. People may come and go in the team but I'm blessed that there are really committed and passionate leaders to their calling in the Lord.
meet my team of 12 named as
Las Gracias Hijas

(taken during fdd+ukh Dominion Ball.only 10 of them were present. April and bam weren't able to join the dominion ball.)
1 Corinthians 15:10
But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.
this is where our network name came from. indeed God's grace is not without effect in our lives!!
Most of my disciples have been with me for a long time. We've been together for like 2-5 years in the business of discipleship. And for that span of year/s a lot of training, sharpening, growing and changing happened individually as well as a team.
For 2015, another mark of maturity took place for each one of us. It started with me as the lead of the team and along the way, it flows to them.
As part of reaching bigger goals and doing it effectively and strategically, a big change has been made. Starting with me, I no longer part of the Unique Ka Hijas primary 12, and was promoted to the WASP network which composed mostly of mothers. :) Since I was in for change, my team was also in for it. Three of them will remain at UKH network, one will be promoted to another adults network and the rest will also taste a promotion. (to be confirmed yet)
it is really a big shift for us as a team and individually, yet we believe that more than anything else, the goal is more important than the role and everything is all about Jesus and His kingdom. We were gathered for a moment to be trained and equipped, and it's time for us to be scattered like seeds ready to be planted and bear fruit.
Like Abraham, whose called to set a journey to a place which he did not know, still obeyed and trust God. Because of that obedience, a great reward was set for him.
Genesis 12:2-3 NIV
“I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”
It really pays to obey. We haven't received yet the reward we are claiming, but the Lord has already set it along our way.
the commission
as Paul commissioned Titus
Titus 1:5 NIV
The reason I left you in Crete(Hijas) was that you might put in order what was left unfinished and appoint elders in every town, as I directed you.
To Rue,Novy and Daina may this Word inspire you to keep pressing forward in the Vision of winning the lost and making disciples. Put into practice every revelation and learning you have.Indeed, the grace of God in your life is not without effect but you will bear much fruit and fruit that will last.
it is my prayer that they will be effective and excellent to where they are planted right now. I'm blessed with their faithfulness and commitment and the resilient spirit they possessed as they overcome trials and test.
As for me, I am blessed to be given the trust and ability to lead people. Jesus made it all possible. He's the one who made us all qualified for this ministry.
This will be a year of lengths and width. Wherever my feet will set, it will be a place to conquer and dominate for the Lord.
More of Jesus this 2015!!!
