BE THERE!

Last week’s message one for my personal record books.  I preached a message titled “BE THERE”. It’s a passion of mine for people to see the value of “being the church” by “being at church.” Yes, there is a demonic paradigm that deceives people in believing that attending church is not necessary.  Unfortunately, this is a major stronghold in the Miami-Dade County area. Please help me combat it by prayer, teaching and encouragement

I know that this Sunday (tomorrow) is the 4th of July. And I know some people will be out of town, but the challenge still continues this week.  I will teach on the value and importance of gathering together. It means everything to our personal and corporate momentum.  Let’s BE THERE!

Pastor Manny

    The value and importance of gathering ! If you live in the urban community you should make it to be a priority to gather in the house of the Lord every day just walking down the street is life changing . I still not understanding celebrating 4th of July and New Years with gun fire but they do ! So you need all the covering of GOD before you enjoy you’re day with family .

    I will definitely be there! And we will continue to push for this stronghold to be broken. Can’t wait to gather in His presence tomorrow morning!

    We gotta keep pressing forward as one!…we need God more than ever!!! We need to seek God more than ever!!! If we let ourselves to be pulled away from Him I believe our hearts will grow colder than ever and we could get easily deceived…these are critic times and we cannot lose more time anymore.

    I love each opportunity I have to be in the gathering of brothers in Christ and worship our Lord together, so see you there…

    It is very important for us to be in church these coming weeks as God is continuing to work in us and speaking to us about getting things in order. We must be there!



  7. Andrea on July 3, 2010 at 10:05 PM

    I will be there & I pray that everyone else will be there as well, honoring the Sabbath and not foresaking the gathering together with other believers

    Prayerfully we ALL get a revelation of how important our physical presence is in the corporate gathering.



  9. mario caceres on July 3, 2010 at 10:59 PM

    We most be there. A celebration can’t be more important than the corporate gathering of the saint.



  10. Mel on July 3, 2010 at 11:28 PM

    I will be there!



  11. gjstfhill on July 4, 2010 at 3:21 AM

    I will certainly be there.



  12. April on July 4, 2010 at 8:18 AM

    I see the importance of it Pastor and I will be there.



  13. Manny on July 4, 2010 at 9:47 AM

    We are there in spirit. We see you soon.



  14. Jalina on July 4, 2010 at 9:54 AM

    I am one of those out of town but i am always in Spirit.



  15. Benjamin on July 4, 2010 at 11:05 PM

    Hey i will be there!



  16. Simone on July 5, 2010 at 9:58 AM

    The corporate gathering has become a vital part of my life, I can’t imagine where I’d be today if it weren’t for God’s grace and the relationships that I’ve built with so many at MHC. I’m determined to BE THERE!!!!

    The importance of being in church to honor Jesus has grown to be such an important part of my life, that even if I am not physically in Miami, and on somewhat of a vacation, I will do as the bible commands. I will not forsake assembling with the local church. I want to, need to, and will be there.



  18. Jahazyel Martin on July 5, 2010 at 8:28 PM

    We can’t take the corporate gathering for granted. Every opportunity that we have when we are in town we should be there. It is a blessing to be in the house of the Lord with the body.



  19. Johnny on July 6, 2010 at 9:46 AM

    I believe this is a timely word. I have been encouraged by peoples initial response to their covenant with the word spoken. We must all do our part in communicating this biblical truth.



  20. GLENNA on July 6, 2010 at 5:06 PM

    Unfortunately, I cannot be there, but my heart and my prayers are always with you!



  21. AD on July 6, 2010 at 11:51 PM

    The best thing we can do to support our church we said we would commit to, is to show up. Not just show up in physicality, but all of ourselves, body, mind, and spirit..



  22. Zayne on July 7, 2010 at 10:26 AM

    I like this blog because it talks about how we are deceived by our own minds and think that church is not necessary but we need church and reading our bibles to keep a strong relationship with God.



  23. DMc on July 7, 2010 at 10:26 PM

    I was absent in body, but present in Spirit. Leaders, let’s join pastor and continually pray that the Holy Spirit will come upon MHC in power as he sends us into the region. We know He is just to fulfill His promises.



  24. JessiD on July 9, 2010 at 10:18 PM

    I was there and I will continue been there.



  25. Junior on July 10, 2010 at 7:07 PM

    I’ll be there!!!
