Are You Set Apart?

A place where you get to know what happened in service,
A place to keep you updated,
A place to see all the familiar faces...
Where else can it be?
Yes that's right.*bingo* Welcome to fireBRANDS  blog. Guess what happened last week?


We had pre-service as usual at 7:15 sharp.

We prayed for one another., according to their needs

Next,it's ice breaker time! Ice breaker was led by our very own Natasha Gregory.
Each person is required to take a piece of paper and write three facts about yourself.( excluding the obvious ones).After finished writing, papers would be collected, jumbled up, and taken by everyone each.

Kelly: What to write? Teach me!
Vanessa: Nah,write like that..
 
Everyone should then find their *mysterious friend* who wrote on the paper.
Found you!
After that, 
Natasha: Please sit down with your partner in a circle.And pray for your partner this week.

Wait, don't go! That's not all. We got more! 
No more guessing people, but time to take out the thinking box!
Reach for any hand you can find and hold on to it. It isn't that easy!
Try untangling yourself without losing your grip.
The *ladies*
vs
the *gentlemen's*

 
Oops,quick!Their getting to an end !

Yes, and that ends ice breaker.

After that,we move on to worship,led by Eulene and her team.

After worship, we had someone special in our midst. Guess who!
No, not really.. 
Its none other than Chan Ming Yen!
So what did Ming Yen shared about?

Being Set Apart

Question 1: Did you know that you are set apart?
And what does it mean by set apart?

= a) To select or reserve someone/something for a specific purpose
b) Holy (to be blameless before God and man)
c) Made to be different

Question 2: How do we know that we are set apart?

=God Himself says that we are reserved for a specific purpose holy and made different.

- Timothy(2:20-22)

20 In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use. 21 Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.
22 Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

Question 3: How do we know that we are the noble utensils  and how do we know we are to fulfill His plans?

- Start from the very beginning and build up your foundations like..

a) Giving God the best- Put God as your number 1 priority
b)Love your neighbor as yourself- Love one another as God first love us
c) Thanksgiving- It has the power to change something bad to good
- It will make God move
- It will lead us to His presence.

Question 4: Who do we rely on if we are set apart?

= God and also the Holy Spirit
-The Holy Spirit is our friend, helper, counselor and comforter
  
Question 5: what privileges do we have if we are set apart?

-God will always support us in all things.
-We will be given confidence

Question 6: Why did God set us apart?

=To declare His praise and mercy to others.
= That you may give glory to Him.

* All things are possible if we have help. So if we have the Holy Spirit, we can do all things*





Come back next time to see and read more :)
