“Think about the speed of light…”

“…and all He [God] has created”, my Pastor said some weeks ago in a message and it totally keeps freaking me out. Thinking about the speed of light makes everyone say “Whew! Awesome phenomenon!” and things like that. However, what really blows my mind is not only the perfection that lies in natural laws about energy and frequency and speed of light, it is the fact that God, my heavenly Father, has thought it all out and with joy and pleasure and satisfaction called it into excistence.
Bam!
There it was: Light.
And He saw it was good.
With a speed of about 300 000 000 meters per second.
Alright, so God created it on the first day as the Bible says (Gen 1:3). Now, if He is the creator that means He must be able to see it from a point of view that is not subject to it . He is the One looking at it from an absolute superior position. The theory that no thing can move as fast as light or other electromagnetic waves (A. Einstein, you know…) does not apply to God. It is not a limitation ruling the creator of it all, because He wouldn’t be the creator if that would be the case. Just imagine that the speed of light is something God is actually able “to look at”, that would mean He is truly totally independent from time and space. We can hardly get our heads around the fact that things would stretch or bend or tilt or look as if, if they moved with a speed close to speed of light. Still, God has no problem with even thinking of things moving faster than that. He does not require light to hit him in order to give him a picture of things… He sees it all, whenever He wants, whatever He wants… AAAAAhhhhh, help me because my brain is bursting! God is just awesome, isn’t He!

God TV II

Since many people who are searching “GOD TV” get here and many people seem to be using the “GOD TV UK” and “US” link because of this post, I want to let you know that the blessed God TV webstream moved to the following address:

http://god.tv/stream

From there you can choose your area or even get some of the older programs via “GOD - on demand” (although it sounds a bit funny :D)
I think it requires a registration, but you don’t need to pay anything Spread the word!

Da viele Leute, die nach “GOD TV” googeln, hierher kommen und viele die “GOD TV UK” und “US” Links zu benutzen scheinen, wegen diesem Beitrag, wollt ich euch wissen lassen, dass der gesegnete God TV Webstream zur folgenden Adresse umgezogen ist:

http://god.tv/stream

Von da aus kann man seine Region auswählen oder sogar über “GOD - on demand” einige ältere Sendungen ansehen.
Man muss sich registrieren, glaube ich, aber man muss nichts bezahlen Weitersagen!

When a blog was born

July 2006 ►

Can anyone remember? No? Well, in fact, this is sort of a special anniversairy this year. In July 2006, when I started this blog I was just taking off to the United States to visit the International House of Prayer - aka IHOP - in Kansas City, Missouri. And this year I’m a “repeater”. Yes, I’m pleased to announce to you *drumroll* that I’m going to visit IHOP KC again

“European Immersion” ► dip deep, soak and steep

“European Immersion 2008″ that’s the name of the program I’m going to take part in. Sounds good, eh! I’m looking forward to getting some passion fueling teaching, to seeing again some nice people I got to know then and meeting a lot of new Jesus-hungry people and above all, I’m looking forward to sitting in the prayer room, talking to my Father, refocussing my life, my mind, my everything on Him, getting refreshed, refueled, recharged in His presence, having an awesome time of worship and devotion and receiving more and more revelation… aaahhh, I can’t stop… I’m soooo looking forward. There’s just nothing like being with Jesus and knowing God!

Why in the world IHOP in the States?

Why not! Okay, okay, it’s a sane question. Why can’t I simply sit in my room at home to do the things mentioned above. First, I would save a lot of money. Secondly, my peeps at church and at home would not complain about me leaving everything behind for 4 weeks ;). However, the answer is easy.
First, I want to go on holiday! But on a “Jesus-holiday”, meaning I don’t want to just hang out on a beach for some weeks to return physically relaxed, recovered and sunburnt (although that’s extremely attractive, I admit). I want to relax, recover and sunbathe my spirit as well, because I believe this is the one thing needed in this world, in this time. Spiritual things are more real, more important, more influential than physical things. That’s hard to grasp because we learned from birth on to walk according to what our senses tell us, to think based on what we can explain with so called sanity and science. That’s good of course. If only we would stop to exclude, negate and deny the spiritual reality. My point is, I need to feed my inner man, and a program like this is a great opportunity.
Secondly, I believe IHOP KC is a place God has exceptionally blessed. A place with people He has anointed to do what they are doing. They have got a great chunk of revelation about some things in the body of Christ which I haven’t found anywhere else in that measure. Of course there are more houses of prayer all over the world. The great advantage of such institutions in the States is simply the size or capacity and structure. Or have you ever heard of a House of Prayer in Germany holding such programs… (Anyway, we’re growing, aren’t we!) Well, I believe, it’s good to get around a bit and have the best teachers, to get the cream of the crop The head of my former music school used to encourage me comparing the learning and training process of an instrumentalist with the training of craftsmen in medieval times. After one or two years of learning from their master in their city they started to cross through the country to learn from masters here and there, develop their skills by getting trained various ways and approaches of manufacturing and to finally find out the best way in order to become the best craftsman. He wasn’t possessive or protective about me as his student at his school. Instead he encouraged me to take workshops and lessons wherever I could, because he wanted me to become an excellent musician. I think that’s a nice analogy to our spiritual learning and training. (Hopefully, you’re getting my point: I’m not supporting people who roam around from one christian camp to the next to get pumped without having roots in a church. Every christian needs to be planted in a local church!)
So IHOP KC… I’m coming

Berlin, Berlin, wir waren nach Berlin

Take it to the streets-Tour mit Matt Redman & Hillsong London am Samstag war sehr sehr schön. Auch sehr beeindruckend: der C-Campus von der Gemeinde auf dem Weg - good to see such a large church facility in Europe.
This was the setlist: They opened up with the most distinctive Hillsong bass line pumping out the system exploding into Tell the world. Next came One way, Jesus and I will dance, I will sing. Then a little introduction of Hillsong London Band and Matt Redman’s Band, who went on with Blessed Be Your Name, Never Let Go, Heart Of Worship, How Great Is Our God. Especially the last two songs - just amazing! They almost left it completely to the 2000 souls in the auditorium to sing it. After that Matt led into an introduction of Compassion with some photo and video presentation. Hillsong’s Pete Wilson continued with a bunch of hits including Mighty To Save, Hosanna, Jesus Is and many more I’ve not been so acquainted with before. Pete Wilson didn’t hold back to use the opportunity to make some straight Jesus talk from off the stage. Very cool and profound. I think this is really a channel, especially Christian musicians have to learn to use in a appropriate, not-cheesy way, because it’s such a huge opportunity to reach people with the message: Jesus saves! Anyone, at anytime, anywhere… Well, the Hillsong-peeps gave a shining example, in my opinion. At the end they again were givin’ it some… with Dancing generation, Take it all, Time has come…However, “Jesus Is” definitely became my new fave-(Hill-)song.

Gut gebrüllt, Löwin!

Sehnsucht und Ahnung liegen ineinander, eins treibt das andre hervor.

Bettina von Arnim (1785-1859)

Don’t you know that…

…running away from the mirror doesn’t change the way you look like.
…running away from one school to another doesn’t change the fact that you’ll have to learn (the same) things.
…only in God the human heart finds its true resting place.

God loves people

This is my song of praise to You
For who You are and all that You do
From the moment my life began
You have been faithful
Brian Doerksen “Faithful Father”

There’s nothing we can do to make God love us more or less. He just loved us right from the beginning with the greatest love and purest affection that’s ever existed in this universe and nothing can change that. Day after day after day the loving and caring eyes of the Father rest upon us. The passionate affection of Jesus follows the bride waiting and longing for the day to take her home. Years ago, yesterday, today, tomorrow… no shadow of turning in His nature, no change of mind, nothing like that. He is perfect love and faithfulness.

This is our song of praise to You
For who You are and all that You do
From before the world began
You have been faithful
You will be faithful
Forever faithful
Brian Doerksen “Faithful Father”
