The Gratitude in M24


The Gratitude tn M24                      
 It’s hard to believe it has already been two months since our last M24. So this post is a flashback post of what I had gathered from this amazing and almost indescribable men’s event up in the hills of Tehachapi.I want to thank God for this weekend, and secondly, thank Matt for surrendering to God and obeying God's calling in bringing us all together!! This M24 weekend went by so quickly. It was hard to leave the safe place and refuge that God showed us this weekend. 1500-1800 men, all desperate to hear from the Holy Spirit, were present. I couldn’t help but be in awe and complete gratitude when I had the opportunity to greet every man who came to the event this weekend, including each one of you. As each man entered those gates, the Holy Spirit exposed their need for Jesus right before my eyes, and my heart broke with the overwhelming feeling of compassion. Some of them showed this need in their tear-filled eyes as I spoke words of encouragement, while others showed confidence in proclaiming what God has promised them, which in turn encouraged me. 

Jeremiah 29:13-14 says, “And you will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. I will let Myself be found by you,” declares the Lord, “and I will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and all the places where I have driven you,” declares the Lord, “and I will bring you back to the place from where I sent you into exile.” 

God showed us so much of what He has to offer through other men that my heart and physical body found it difficult to get into my van and leave the campground. My heart was not depressed because I had to leave but rather overwhelmed with joy in our responsibility in the enlistment of Men of God. I have many M24 nuggets to share and plan to do so over the next few weeks. I encourage you to do the same so our brothers will be encouraged to continue fighting the good fight and bringing others to Jesus. If you are wearing the MOG bracelet, this is not a suggestion, it’s an allegiance to what you professed. “Band of brothers, men of valor, each one of you is a gift from God to one another to ensure our love and devotion to Him.” Iron sharpens iron. Love you all, Aaron. 

Proverbs 27:17 says, “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.”

Warriors in Prayer- Like a wave…

Warriors in Prayer-Like the Wave of the Sea... A few months ago, I heard a song with a lyric that caught my attention - empty prayers. I couldn't help but think back on my prayer life. How many times had I prayed to you, God, out of obligation, going through the motion without sincerity or consideration of the honor of whom I am able to petition to? I became a man who would approach the throne of the Almighty God, offering empty prayers. I was the praying warrior tossed by the waves of James 1:6. I became resentful when always being asked to pray at events and family functions. I started slipping more and more in my prayer life, convincing myself that I wasn't gifted in prayer, so I excused myself from it. When I did pray, I became more than the demise of the praying man described in James 1:6. My mind became affixed on Matthew 6:7, best translated in the CEB translation, which reads, "When you pray, don't pour out a flood of empty words as the Gentiles do." I bec...
