There is blog after blog talking about training camp and what great times you will have, well I’m here not to tell you what to bring or what to be prepared for. My advice is to have NO EXPECTATIONS!!!!!
He will wreck your world in one way or another during this week but it might not be in the way you want. People said that they came to TC one person and left a totally change child of God. I went in to camp praying for God to do some crazy things and I expected things to be crazy awesome. Well, be careful what you pray for! I’ll be honest though, the beginning of camp as far as spiritually goes, sucked! My heart was not into it, I felt I was not really meant to be there, but it was because I had the expectations that it was going to rock my socks off, not because it was for God but because I wanted it to be awesome. When God finally showed me how selfish I was during each worship set and lesson, I began to understand why I felt the things I was feeling. I was singing the songs not for God but to get something out of it for myself, there is a song that says “ a worship is more than a song” and it is totally true, when we sing songs of praise are we praising the song or are we praising God? I personally have to ask myself this question far more often than I would like to admit. Once I came to this realization in my life, THAT’S when God began to rock my world at camp!
He broke me of so many vices in my life and truly freed me and allowed me to worship and praise Him in everything I do. I prayed for God to change my life, but He had to break me down of some many things before he could really start moving in me and through me. We were told at camp that we couldn’t go to the nations with chains binding us because it will show in our ministering. I thought that I was doing well with my obedience to God in my walk with Christ. God showed me that I was wrong in so many facets of my life and I had so many walls built up, but I thank Him everyday for loving me and all of us so much that He torn down all those walls and is continuing to work in my heart and preparing me to bring His power and light into the darkness of the lost people. God will always listen to your prayers but the way He may answer them might not be the way you think! But it will always be answered in the best and perfect way God wanted it.
