Ambushing the World


Stop trying to Ambush the World:

I really feel like the world is conquering the Church and the Church is trying very hard just to Ambush the world.

General Steps to Ambush
1. Preparation: To be successful, an ambush patrol must deploy into the area covertly, ideally under the cover of darkness. The patrol will establish secure and covert positions overlooking the killing zone.

2. Waiting: Having set up the ambush, the next phase is to wait. This could be for a few hours, or a few days.

 3. Execution: The arrival of an enemy in the area should be signaled by one of the cut-off units.

By definition, the ambush contains the element of total surprise; which means the victims of the ambush have no knowledge of how it has been constructed, or of what measures may have been employed to prevent escape. Ref. WIKI-Ambush

Within in our Church we can see many fighters who are really good in complaining about fellow believers. When I think about my faith journey I have recalled many account where fellow believers hurting each other. We split, we divide, we dominate, we pressure our fellow believers. The church is caring so much about figures, statistic, statement, status but where is our Love.

Look at the History of the Church, how do you feel. By the way, i love history. Sometime I feel shame but i know we have good philosophy of life which is to live as who we are. Don't we, yes we are. Paul urge Timothy to imitate him as he imitate Christ. I really feel sorry that I always ignore about it in real life. I try to win people by arguing or by reasoning with them. However, I always forgot that One action speak louder than a thousand words. huh!!!

Oh Yeh let us go back to our primary concern which is Ambushing the World. Is the World so great to be conquered. Oh hold on I know u gonna say Christ has already conquered the world. But wait a minute Christ also send us out to go to the end of the world to Change the world that He has already conquered. The world need to change with a new suit, a new look to be a new person.

Please stop trying to Ambush the World. The more we trust our strength, our ideas, our management skills we gonna waste our resources for nothing. The Church always been trying to Prove herself. We try to prove ourselves. But we are lacking that we need to be His Witness Acts. 1:8. Christians bully one another, division, jealousy, cheating funds, giving false figures, deceptions, dishonesty ahh we have many many personal testimonies WOoo...
Oh i am here to complain about fellow sinners or saints.
Ah we are the light of the World, the Salth of the Earth. Matthew 5:13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.


We are called to be His witnesses. To win without killing. To lead without forcing. To love without reason. Amen!!!
