318

This number is something that is stirring in the men's ministry in our church. The number comes from Genesis 14: 14-16 When Abram heard that his relative had been taken captive, he called out the 318 trained men born in his household and went in pursuit as far as Dan. During the night Abram divided his men to attack them and he routed them, pursuing them as far as Hobah, north of Damascus. He recovered all the goods and brought back his relative Lot and his possessions, together with the women and the other people. We are wanting to be a team of men that rescues men from their situations like they did for Abram's nephew Lot.

We want to be better soldiers for Christ, growing in the Lord and full of His power. We can take back the things the enemy stole in our lives and in the lives of the people around us. God has a higher calling for us at Bedford Christian Community Church. He wants us to fix our homes and then our communities. Truth is our market distinctive. We need to put the fight back into our lives. We have let the wimpy side take over our soul. It's time for it to die. It's time for us to stand and rule in our lives once again. God is in charge and nothing can change that NOTHING.
God is making us perfect. Hang on to this ride, it's going to be a white knuckle, hair raising, upset stomach, rush that we must stay focused on. The results of which will be life changing, utter joy and total contentment. We win. Satan loses. Amen.

Aaron,

That's really cool. It is exciting to see men catch the fire of God. Nothing can stop a man in God's will. Keep on seeking God and you are right, it will be a wild ride.
