From Keith Slade

Gentlemen,
I am encouraged and have met a few of you. I would like for you to pray for protection over my house I have opened it up to the you and young adults in the Bear River and Placer communities. Campus Life Gold Country meets here every so often on Tuesday Nights and ministers to teenagers both believer and non. Nathanial and Kendra Wiliams run this and represent Youth for Christ Ministries you can find them on the web. If you have a teenager or Junior high kid they are welcome. They play games, do camps teach about Jesus, and life messages. I unfortunatly can't make the MOI meetings and am happy I can communicate through this Blog. I am a single parent with two little ones 5 and 8.

Blessings to you........Warriors

ROMANS 12 (THE MESSAGE)

1 So here's what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life - your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life - and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. 2 Don't become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you. 3 I'm speaking to you out of deep gratitude for all that God has given me, and especially as I have responsibilities in relation to you. Living then, as every one of you does, in pure grace, it's important that you not misinterpret yourselves as people who are bringing this goodness to God. No, God brings it all to you. The only accurate way to understand ourselves is by what God is and by what he does for us, not by what we are and what we do for him. 4 In this way we are like the various parts of a human body. Each part gets its meaning from the body as a whole, not the other way around. 5 The body we're talking about is Christ's body of chosen people. Each of us finds our meaning and function as a part of his body. But as a chopped-off finger or cut-off toe we wouldn't amount to much, would we? So since we find ourselves fashioned into all these excellently formed and marvelously functioning parts in Christ's body, 6 let's just go ahead and be what we were made to be, without enviously or pridefully comparing ourselves with each other, or trying to be something we aren't. If you preach, just preach God's Message, nothing else; 7 if you help, just help, don't take over; if you teach, stick to your teaching; 8 if you give encouraging guidance, be careful that you don't get bossy; if you're put in charge, don't manipulate; if you're called to give aid to people in distress, keep your eyes open and be quick to respond; if you work with the disadvantaged, don't let yourself get irritated with them or depressed by them. Keep a smile on your face. 9 Love from the center of who you are; don't fake it. Run for dear life from evil; hold on for dear life to good.10 Be good friends who love deeply; practice playing second fiddle. 11 Don't burn out; keep yourselves fueled and aflame. Be alert servants of the Master, 12 cheerfully expectant. Don't quit in hard times; pray all the harder. 13 Help needy Christians; be inventive in hospitality. 14 Bless your enemies; no cursing under your breath. 15 Laugh with your happy friends when they're happy; share tears when they're down. 16 Get along with each other; don't be stuck-up. Make friends with nobodies; don't be the great somebody. 17 Don't hit back; discover beauty in everyone. 18 If you've got it in you, get along with everybody. 19 Don't insist on getting even; that's not for you to do. "I'll do the judging," says God. "I'll take care of it." 20 Our Scriptures tell us that if you see your enemy hungry, go buy that person lunch, or if he's thirsty, get him a drink. Your generosity will surprise him with goodness. 21 Don't let evil get the best of you; get the best of evil by doing good.

THE CALL to MOI

Ecclesiastes 4:12
12 Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken

"DECLARATION"

WORSHIP – PRAY – FELLOWSHIP – ACCOUNTABILITY – SERVICE

MOI is a group of men that have been brought together by God to create an unbreakable brotherhood, a brotherhood that has been forged with a specific purpose.

We pray together…worship together…cry together…read the word together…we fellowship together and hold each other accountable. We govern our lives by a strict set of principles that have been put forth by our Father. 

We stand united in the light, cleansed by the blood of Jesus. We gather together as a team of God fearing & God loving men with one purpose in mind…to absolutely honor God in everything we do, to glorify Him in all things & to proclaim His name proudly.

We are breaking through the worldly division and are breaking down the church walls to unite under one God. We are men taking our rightful place as God led pointmen. We lead by example and serve others before ourselves.

We come together in prayer. We stand firm together against the enemy’s attacks. We battle together in Christ against the spiritual forces that are here to cause destruction and death. We work together under God’s protection to break strongholds and to set the captives free. We ask God and his holy angels to war on our behalf. Everything is done through Christ and for Christ.

Together we help the broken hearted.

Together we feed the hungry.

Together we shelter the homeless.

Together we lift up those in need.

In God’s holy battle, we walk boldly declaring God’s holy word. We lift up our brothers on the left and on the right. We lay down our lives if need be to do the work of Him who made us. We dedicate our entire lives to Him, and to fulfill His specific purpose.

A Message from Titan's Friend "Wes" in Hawaii

aloha my braddah!

i just wanted to share a little of how we came up with MOI. you probably know that the fish, moi, was farmed in the ancient hawaiian days in a pond. it was royalty food that was served to a king. nobody else ate it. it was consumed by kings.

well, we are lawai'a kanaka, fisher of men (matt. 4:19). we bring men (moi) into this pond on wednesdays to grow and mature so our king, Jesus Christ, may consume us as he pleases; that He may use us at His disposal. its a great way describe who and what we are supposed to be!

we are also men from many different congregations, but under one God, one Savior, one Way, Jesus Christ! 

the originator of MOI now lives in the state of washington. he has started a MOI group there also. 

then we have a missionary brother in the philipines who will be bringing some of these men, from here and washington, for a missions trip back to his place in surigao island.

it will be awesome to have all of us get together and just praise and worship our Savior one day! 

bro, im excited about your MOI group! i love that men there are putting the church walls down and just standing up and taking back their God given responsiblities: to become pointmen who will lead families and others into the spiritual warfare against the enemy. i know that victory is already won, but we still have to battle to let these men know that Truth.

lets keep in touch and keep me posted on praise and prayer request, and i will do the same!

i pray that God will use you and the men there mightily, and that every man will come to know our Savior Jesus Christ, and that you guys will be a beacon of hope for a eternal life in paradise in this dark world. i pray this with the authority of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! amen!!

God bless my brotha!!

at the foot of the cross,

wes
