2ND ANNUAL H.O.T SPORTS FESTIVAL

Our 2nd  Annual Sports Festival was held on 18th October 2014 at the Stima Members' club, located off Thika Superhighway. This fun-filled day saw members come in different styles and colors and with their best smiles, they enjoyed every game lined up for the day. The games included caterpillar race, football, swimming, wheelbarrow race and athletics. At the end of all this, team white emerged as winners and were awarded certificates in recognition of their outstanding performances in all the games.

The day's theme was built around 'PERSEVERANCE' and it was clearly shown through the sports that with perseverance, we can get to the highest of heights. 

Revelation 3:10 "Because you have obeyed my command to persevere, I will protect you from the great time of testing that will come upon the whole world to test those who belong to this world". New Living Translation

Matt 24:13 "But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved".

WAKE UP-NO EXCUSES

Proverbs 22:13

A lazy man is full of excuses.  "I can't go to work!" he says. "If i go outside, i might meet a lion in the streets and be killed. 

Most of us have lives that are full of excuses. You complain of not having bus fare but you have legs.  Things will only start moving the moment you start living life as if you had no other option.

Are we not serving the same God Samson served? The one who gave him strength to kill a lion with his bear hands? (Judges 14:5). 

Have you also forgotten the story of Daniel? When God protected him in a den full of hungry lions?  (Daniel 6:16)

The problem with us is that we continuously allow excuses to write off our success.

 

David talks about the Lord being His shepherd, giving him strength to walk through the valley of the shadow of death. (Psalms 23)

Try re-evaluating yourself today and find out who your shepherd is. Is it 'Excuses' or the true living God. if it is the true living God, then remember that He has "given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you." (Luke 10:19)

"My word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it." (Isaiah 55:11). This verse is a reassurance that every word He spoke concerning our lives will come to pass in Jesus name. If He said He will bless us, then He will surely bless us. But remember that you have to move out of your comfort zone. Move out of your bed even if you don't have bus fare. Let God find you at the bus station.

"Draw near to God an He will Draw near to you" James 4:8. God bless you H.O.T family

PHOTOS FROM H.O.T RELOADED

16^th August 2014 came and passed but long lasting memories were built from this event that saw members turn out in impressive numbers. As H.O.T, we believe in Christianity that is alive; this is why we work hard to ensure that our members enjoy themselves though different games and sports even as we fellowship together. Here are some of the photos from the event. To read day’s sermon, follow this http://homeoftransformation.blogspot.com/2014/08/flee-from-lo-debar_50.html

FLEE FROM "LO DEBAR"

SERMON BY KELVIN OBONYO (THE FOUNDER)
2^nd Samuel 9

David asked “Is there anyone still left of the house of Saul to whom I can show Kindness for Jonathan’s sake?”  ³ “Ziba answered the king, “there is still a son of Jonathan; he is crippled in both legs”  "⁵ so king David had him brought from Lo Debar”

 

Ancient people valued covenants and this is why David had to show favor on anyone from the house of Saul.

Lo Debar refers to a place of no communication. In fact, this was a slum. When David heard that Mephibosheth was living in this slum, he had to send for him to come and dine with him at his table. This was a turn-around for Mephobosheth who people probably despised and judged based on his disability rather than ability.

• At the table, everyone is equal 
• At this same table, we will not see your feet

So many youths have today run from church because they are crippled and have no David to call them from Lo debar. To them, church is full of hypocrites. They however don’t understanding that “not going to church because there are so many hypocrites is same as not going to gym because there are plump people.” They are there because they want help and before they are perfected, you will have to cope up with their weaknesses. 

Have you realized that there is not even one police officer manning a public toilet with a gun but there are many at every ATM machine? Where there is no value, there is no attack. Are you an ATM or a Toilet?

In a car, the main shield screen is always so large as opposed to the tiny side mirror. This is so that as you drive, you pay more attention on where you are headed rather than look back at Lo Debar. 

John 9: 1-3 “¹As He went along, He saw a man blind from birth. ² His disciples asked Him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” “³ Neither this man nor his parents sinned, said Jesus, “but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life.”

Being poor might not be your fault, but you should not remain there for life. 

NOTE :You are not single because you are ugly but because your attitude stinks. If you can’t stand yourself,  who will stand you?

People are like bags, you only realize later in the relationship that they have hidden pockets deep within.
