Christmas Time is Here!


Christmas a time most people believe is for buying gifts, but let me tell you Christmas is not a time for receiving gifts it is a time to give and a time of remembering the gift that God gave to us.
People say they don’t know why the holidays make them feel so thankful or so full of joy. That is because they slightly remember God giving his only son.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
See he gave the ultimate gift, his son and with his son, and through this gift we have been given eternal life.
If we could all remember what this season was about for a few weeks. Then maybe we could remember him and his gift to us all the time.
Remember to be thankful of him all the time, is only half the fight we should also stop thinking about ourselves and start thinking of others. We waste so much time buying gifts for our families and thinking how good it make us feel to spend so much on a gift that might not last long.
We forget to help those who really need it, there are people who are in need of food, shelter and even love and yet we are spending money on people who may or may not like what u got for them.
Kids are so caught up with what they want for Christmas and if they are going to get what they asked for, That they forget that their parents need help around the house.
Let’s change things up for once, kids and teens you need to stop asking for stuff and start helping your parents. Don’t wait for them to tell you what to do. Just ask them if they need help and trust me that will feel much better than unwrapping a gift on Christmas.
And adults and parents instead of just spending money on your kids, try teaching your kids the true meaning of Christmas by blessing another family who needs help. Or give whatever God puts on your heart and spend time with your kids while doing it.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from Theopneustos T.

God can do all things


It’s amazing what God can do when you have faith in him. When I first tried starting Genesis2.7 Media every time I tried to get help, adults would tell me I was too young to be anything more than a kid in school, that I would never amount to anything until I was a full grown man and had pastoral experience.

But what they didn't realize was there are millionaire teens that start their own businesses, and I had 6 years experience as a pastor and teacher before I was 15.
“See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven. Matthew 18:10
God made every adult that ever talked down on me a fool; he made them eat their words. And all I did was believe in God and what he could do through me.
Even King David was made king when he was just a boy. Read for yourself:
1 Samuel 16:1-13 The LORD said to Samuel, "How long will you mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and be on your way; I am sending you to Jesse of Bethlehem. I have chosen one of his sons to be king."
But Samuel said, "How can I go? Saul will hear about it and kill me." The LORD said, "Take a heifer with you and say, 'I have come to sacrifice to the LORD.'
Invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what to do. You are to anoint for me the one I indicate."
Samuel did what the LORD said. When he arrived at Bethlehem, the elders of the town trembled when they met him. They asked, "Do you come in peace?"
Samuel replied, "Yes, in peace; I have come to sacrifice to the LORD. Consecrate yourselves and come to the sacrifice with me." Then he consecrated Jesse and his sons and invited them to the sacrifice.
When they arrived, Samuel saw Eliab and thought, "Surely the Lord’s anointed stands here before the LORD."
But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."
Then Jesse called Abinadab and had him pass in front of Samuel. But Samuel said, "The LORD has not chosen this one either."
Jesse then had Shammah pass by, but Samuel said, "Nor has the LORD chosen this one."
Jesse had seven of his sons pass before Samuel, but Samuel said to him, "The LORD has not chosen these."
So he asked Jesse, "Are these all the sons you have?" "There is still the youngest," Jesse answered, "but he is tending the sheep." Samuel said, "Send for him; we will not sit down until he arrives."
So he sent and had him brought in. He was ruddy, with a fine appearance and handsome feature. Then the LORD said, "Rise and anoint him; he is the one."
So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the LORD came upon David in power. Samuel then went to Ramah.
If you feel like God is telling you to do something and all you get from people is: Criticism, hate and discouragement. Just go for it and have faith that God will make it happen.
