Passion Manila 2014

Psalm 148:1
Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the Lord from the heavens. Praise Him in the heights. 

Last night was the first day of Passion Manila 2014 that was held in Smart Araneta Coliseum, and it was awesome!!! Truly it is. It was the first time that I attended a huge worship night, and it was really really great to see the power of the Lord reigning upon each and everyone of us.

The thing is worshiping God in a big dome, with thousands of people made me see God's extravagance in a whole new light. I was able to see explicitly the glory of God, and it was just a portion of its totality! How? Imagine having a Hollywood star Dad and you know he is famous, but you get to just really see how famous he is if you accompany him to an event where hundreds or thousands of people are gathering waiting for him. Well, that's how I felt. I know God is really famous, and that His name reaches the corners of the world, but to see people from different corners of the country gather to glorify God together, and to jump for joy with them, to sing with them all, to really shout praises to God with them all, I was able to see just how magnificent my God is. I was able to see how many lives God are protecting and changing and loving. And take note, it was only a small portion of people.


Passion Manila 2014 was spearheaded by Passion City Church's head pastor, Pastor Louie Giglio together with Christian artists Kristian Stanfill and the David Crowder band.



Highlights from Pastor Louie's preaching:
-Non-dancers can dance because of God's amazing grace
-Even as Christians we still try to earn from God what He has already given us, and so, God comes out for us, and tells us that we are His children and we already have everything, and He couldn't be more pleased to us than He already is.
-The stars are not just shining, they're also singing
-Every creation in this universe worships God, and when they all are mashed up together, they make a really beautiful sound.




With friends!
