We’ve had to make a lot of decisions these past few weeks. For the most part, we have a clear vision of what Ghana Rock 2012 is going to look like. In my head I can imagine a room full of people lost in worship, focused entirely on Jesus. From September of last year until now, when people ask me the purpose of Ghana Rock I would say worship. That’s our goal, to create a worship environment with a purpose.
We want every single ticket sale to head to the City of Refuge for freeing kids out of a life of bondage. We want people to come and feel educated about the slavery epidemic on Lake Volta when they leave and compelled to take their new knowledge a step further and do something. More importantly though, we want people to come and experience God in a big way.
As you can imagine, we don’t take any of those goals lightly. While we make the important decisions that will map out the night, we are continuously falling on our faces in prayer. We pray every Monday that none of our decisions will be made without seeking God first.
I was reading through Psalm 34 yesterday when verse 5 hit me;
“Those who look to him are radiant,
and their faces shall never be ashamed.”
Can I get an AMEN? or a gasp of excitement? something?
This is what we are praying for. We want to be radiant and unashamed because every step of this process we look to Him for advice, we seek His wisdom, we fall flat on the floor to His feet asking Him what to do. Come May 18th, we’re going to be radiant and unashamed.
Thank you, Jesus, for helping us make these decisions. Keep us radiant and unashamed.
On behave of the whole Ghana Rock team, I’m going to say,
Stay tuned... big things are coming! :)
