Will the Real Christians Stand Up


         Hill, from the outhouse to the White House. We must know that
         there is a mighty blessing that’s in store when taking a stand
         and not compromising with sin. Then we see that Joseph was
         placed in a very high position, the second in charge of the

         land of Egypt to be exact. By being placed in that position, he
         was able to save the lives of all of his family. He was able to
         save the lives of millions.
              “After receiving Christ in our lives, God takes us from glory

         to glory to glory. We are promoted to different levels and posi-
         tions in ministry. Therefore, being placed in a position to touch
         the lives of many with the gospel of Jesus Christ. God blessed
         Joseph with a gift to dream things that would soon come to

         pass and also a gift of interpreting dreams. God has also given
         us a gift, a gift that has the purpose to touch thousands,   if
         not millions. So, I encourage each one of you to avoid putting
         yourself in compromising situations with worldly desires. There

         are blessings that are in store when we obey God. Be bless-
         ed,”
              Samaria ended as she stepped away from the podium.
               “Wow,” Adriana said with teary eyes as she made her way

         to the podium. I’m always moved every time I hear the two
         of you speak because I hear the Holy Spirit speaking through
         you. Giving honor to my personal Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,
         I’m here to talk about keeping yourself. In this day and age,

         keeping yourself seems unheard of. Sex has become the most
         promoted  topic  in  our  generation,  but  I’m  here  to  let  it  be
         known that it can be done. No matter how much the media
         promotes and encourages us to get involved, there are youth

         who will say no. I’m a virgin, and I’m so proud to say it.”
              Some of the youth clapped in agreement.
              “I have a desire and a fire burning on the inside of me to
         please the true and living God.
