The first service of Driven Youth Camp started off on a high note with an exciting message from our communicator , Mike Holt.
His message was a wake up call to teens and adults alike - to wake up from our spiritual slumber and stop hitting our spiritual snooze buttons!
Using the scripture text of Romans 13:11-12, Mike challenged all of us to go further in our walk with God and to truly experience all that God's presence can be!
We must overcome our invisible enemies! Here are five to overcome...
1. Enemy of Unbelief
Sometimes we say "It's okay to go almost, but not all the way!"
If we don't believe we will miss what God wants to do - He still performs miracles!!
2. Our flesh
We have to put to death our old sinful selves and move forward with God.
Mike used the example of Aron Ralston, a climber who had to cut off his own hand
when stuck in a cliff to live!
If you don't take sin seriously, you will seriously sin!!
3. An Attitude of Mediocrity
We have a spirit of "Uhh" instead of "Awe"
4. Unbiblical ministries
Too many times churches and youth groups looks for attendance, not discipleship!
5. Our Culture
Truth is not relative - God is the truth! Don't fall into the world's trap!
After a powerful time at the alter where students where breaking free from old attitudes, we had a great time at late night games - involving tug of war and a tire!
