Donevan Impact Feb 12th 09

Today was our second part of “When bad Things Happen” we talked out of Exodus 34:5-7. i talked a bit about how God is a just God. 

Exodus 34:5-7 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)

5 The LORD came down in a cloud, stood with him there, and proclaimed [His] name Yahweh. 6 Then the LORD passed in front of him and proclaimed:

    Yahweh—Yahweh is a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger and rich in faithful love and truth, 7 maintaining faithful love to a thousand [generations], forgiving wrongdoing, rebellion, and sin.  But He will not leave [the guilty]  unpunished, bringing the consequences of the fathers’ wrongdoing on the children and grandchildren to the third and fourth generation.

I talked about How He died for us even while we were still sinning (Romans 5:8).  The DVD story was about a girl that called her self Christian but ended up doing drugs with some friends and doing stuff to look cool in front of people. one day, her best friend that called her self a Christian but actually lived it, got in a car accident and died shortly after. Gabby, the girl telling the story, shared about how she got angry with God that her friend that was doing everything right was the one that died while SHE was doing everything wrong and nothing happened to her. She started to get convicted about how SHE was the one that deserved to be punished not her friend.

I used this story to bring the whole thing back to the fact that Jesus was the one with the clean hands yet it was His hands that were pierced not ours. He was the one that got beaten almost to death, not us. He was the one that was stripped down naked, not us. And He was the one that got crucified on the cross…. not us. He took our place and died the death that WE deserve. When i shared Exo 34:5-7, i shared about how even though God doesn’t let the wicked go without consequences, He is faithful to forgive them (and us) of our sins if we truly repent.

It was just an awesome moment all together. Needless to say God move mightly as 3 kids got saved and 3 others rededicated their lives to a serious relationship with Jesus! Please if you are reading this, keep praying for our Highschools, they need a move of God. The reality is that God is willing and ready but He needs servants to help plow the way! God Bless!

WHITE ROCK, B.C. – A B.C. man probably wishes he had given his 11-month-old son a set of keys to play with instead of a phone, after the infant accidentally dialled 9-1-1 and brought police to dad’s marijuana grow operation.

Mounties say a 9-1-1 call came in from a White Rock, B.C. residence Friday morning but whoever was on the other end of the line hung up. Officers arrived at the residence and after numerous knocks on the door went unanswered, they entered the home.

“The gentleman was quite surprised,” said White Rock RCMP Const. Janelle Canning.

She said the 29-year-old male, startled by the sudden sight of police, insisted he hadn’t made the call.

When it was suggested a child might have dialled, the father objected and said his son was far too young.

That’s when police spotted the baby boy, phone in hand.

“We saw him playing with the cordless phone and just pressing all the buttons, so evidently he had called 9-1-1,” Canning said.

With that mystery solved, officers began inspecting the residence and soon discovered a 500-plant marijuana grow operation.

The father was arrested and will appear in court in early April on charges of production of a controlled substance and mischief.

The boy was removed from the home by the Ministry of Children and Family Development, though he was later released into his mother’s custody.

The mother does not live in the residence and Canning says she had no idea what was going on at the home.
