As soccer is not part of normal church life, this is a relevant question.

There are however some other Kingdom pointers as stated below:

•  A prophetic word here by Andre Louw  includes the following questions
  • Do you think that the world cup coming to Africa is an accident?
  • Do you think the fact that all the eyes of the world will be turned to My beloved Africa, is a coincidence?
• From this testimony, it is clear that the the new airport is God ordained and it is in time for the World cup, see Durban's New Airport! Praise GOD for His will …
  

Every Christian needs to ask some of these questions:

• Are we ready to seize this opportunity, and to e.g. put a life coach in the lives of our orphans via soccer coaching. (We know how the Lord feels about fathering His orphans)
• Can we not use this opportunity and reach out to our own youth, those in the neighbourhood and even the visitors during the extra long holidays?

TUG which stands for the The Ultimate Goal aims to join hands and equip each congregation and Christian to DO something during this world cup  time:

What an opportunity we have to work together!>> Read More ... >>>

Ons staan aan die voorpunt nie net van ‘n nuwe jaar nie, maar ook ‘n nuwe dekade.

 Ons moet onsself, as Afrikaners, elkeen individueel en ook korporatief afvra, wat doen ons hier? Party van ons vra selfs die vraag, hoort ons hier in Afrika, ons, die Afrikaners van Afrika?

 Ons is ook voortdurend in ‘n stryd gewikkel met onsself – wat/wie is ons?  Die sekerhede van die verlede waarmee ons 40 plussers mee grootgeword het bestaan doodeenvoudig nie meer nie, en dit wat die jonger geslag by ons hoor inspireer hulle nie juis vir hulle toekoms, in of buite Afrika nie.

 Ons bou op ‘n verkeerde model en poog om steeds ons identiteit te vind in Afrikaner-Nasionalisme, en dan het ons nog  die vermetelheid om dit so ‘n Christelike geurtjie te gee, en te se ‘Christelik-Afrikaans’.   Ons poog om die sogenaamde Christelike Nasionale karakter uit te leef ook in ons skole, en ons verwar kultuur met geloof.

Jou Afrikanerskap het absoluut niks uit te make met jou Christelike geloof nie. >> Read More ... >>>

So ook het die feit dat iemand Frans, Zulu, Duits of Chinees is absoluut niks uit te maak met so ‘n persoon se Christelike geloof nie.

Die HERE se:  "Jy het voor My kom staan in die uur van jou nood en drie beloftes gemaak as ek jou net red.  Ek het met jou n verbond gesluit.  Jy was altyd My volk, maar ek het met jou n verbond gesluit en jou My verbondsvolk gemaak.  Drie beloftes het jy aan My gemaak en nie een van hulle het jy nagekom nie.  En nou op die vooraand van jou vernietiging, wat gaan jy nou doen?  Wat gaan jy nou doen?">> Read More ... >>>

“You know that under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows its true colors.” (James 1:3, The Message)

During a pregame talk with a team, some years ago I asked the question, “What do you get when you squeeze a lemon?” Of course the standard answer fired back from coaches and players alike, “Lemon juice!”

But what nobody knew that morning was that I had filled the lemon with ketchup (tomato sause ). When I squeezed it tight and the red liquid oozed over my hand, they were all taken back.

“You’re wrong,” I then said. “The actual answer is that you get whatever is inside it.”

At that point I had them right where I wanted them, and then asked, “So, what’s inside you? What are we going to see when pressure puts the squeeze on you?” The answer is the same to the lemon question; we will see whatever is in you.>> Read More ... >>>

Many marketplace believers truly struggle with actually marketing their business. They see marketing as human manipulation. They fear it is a display of self-promotion when it may be “holier,” to rely on God to bring promotion on His own. Although it is certainly possible to drift into manipulation or self-promotion, like all two edged swords, there is a beautiful, life giving side to marketing that I hope you will embrace. I call it, “The Ministry of Marketing.”

Why we love marketing

Marketing is simply taking our message to those who need to hear it, rather than waiting for them to find us. Just as the Lord came to “seek and to save those who were lost,” so the marketer goes to seek and to “save” (solve a problem or provide pleasure) those who need our product or service. It’s called “doing business,” and it is every bit as sacred as coming to church and praying. Everything the believer does can be an act of worship, including being ourselves in the marketplace.

Every year we lose more pre-born babies to abortion than the combined death toll of crime and car accidents. Since 1 February 1997, over 900 000 babies have been killed in South Africa - by abortion - with tax payers money.>> Read More ... >>>

Legalised abortion is a national disgrace. The 1st of February 2010 will mark the 13th anniversary of the legalisation of abortion on demand in South Africa. For this reason, Christians who respect the Sanctity of Life will be observing 1 February as a day of prayer and repentance for the national sin of abortion. Pastors throughout the country will be preaching on the Sanctity of Human Life on Sanctity Life Sunday (31 January), and congregations in every province will be joining in prayers of repentance.

It is the essence and secret of Life

Recently, as many of you know, my laptop was destroyed - run over by a semi. People have been curious about how it happened, but the question in my head wasn't how, but why? Why did it happen? The Lord warned me months before that there was going to be an attack against my laptop. I know, it sounds odd, but that is the truth. So, I was very careful to backup and copy everything of any importance.>> Read More ... >>>

However, the question "why" still harassed me for weeks after it happened and heavy sadness settled on me. I sought the Lord about it
