LYM July Conference Update

What a privilege to be in cooperation with Father God in reaching out to His people. God is raising up an army of young men and women in our Nation, He is laying deep foundations of truth within the heart of this generation in Belize. It's His truth that will truly set captives free – free from wrong mentalities, fear, insecurities; who then will be released to loving obedience, to pursue a loving Father that is totally ravished over us.

We want to say a special thanks to all of you who stood with us in faith and prayer for the last four years since the beginning of Legacy. I pray that you share in the great joy with us as you see some pictures from last weeks conference, and know that hearts are being changed.

July Conference Update

We as Legacy have set our hearts daily to see the Kingdom of God advance in our Nation and the Nations of the earth, as we know full well that God is deserving of all men to turn to Him in full repentance. By the grace of God, we are chipping away at seeing the vision God has placed in our hearts manifested in the lives of the youth in Belize - "A consistent stable generation that knows their God and brings forth change in the nations of the earth."

We had just about a hundred young people together with the Legacy leaders at the conference two weeks ago (from about 15 different churches). A passionate cry arose from the hearts of these young people; weeping, seeking and crying out to God for revival and to know Him better. I am convinced that the cry of this generation of young people will NOT go unanswered by our most loving and wise God, for He will respond to the cry of this Generation.

It was a privilege to have Larry Allen with us to speak the Truth of who God is and of His great love toward us. Even weeks after whenever I talk with some of the young people they are still talking of how much they see the love of God toward them - that it is a choice of His heart to love them and that He is committed to their highest good in all of His actions.

Some nuggets from the teaching: God command us to Love... You can't command an emotion so if God in His intelligence and wisdom gives us a command, its obvious that is a choice & we can do it. As we make that choice, the emotions come behind to follow behind that choice. How awesome because that means that God chooses to love us first! An analogy of a truck was used... the choice being the small front steering and the emotion being the huge trailer at back. Emotions can't lead your life... its choices base on truth - God's truth. But imagine this, If the choice is the small section at the front, and God already chose, think about the massive amount of emotion coming behind God's choice. And it's all heading towards us... He burns with passion and love for us.

It was also a time of war in the spiritual realm but God used the enemy's resistance to bring us closer together as a team of Legacy Leaders and also in bringing more clarity for future conferences. We know that the fruit from these times will be lasting thanks to all of you who have been praying with us. Your prayers are being answered. Because of the growth we will have to break our conferences into different age groups. Please be praying for us, for wisdom as we move forward in this.

Coming to legacy is been an exciting adventure as i call it and a journey worth taking . I'm a young Christian that i was introduce to God at the age 13 and ever since then I've been growing in God. In my Christian walk I've been in places i thank God I have over come to this that. There have been times when I wanted to walk away from God and just live the life of this world . I could remember when I was about 10 years old and my mom had first introduced me to this man. I built this amazing relationship with him, a few years later my mom told me that he was my biological father. That hurt me a lot and that was around the time I became a Christian. I was so confused and just overwhelmed with this anger and hatred towards her. I knew I had to deal with situation but there was just something in me that just didn't want to let go. Amongst everything I had to deal with the fact that I was being tempted in many others ways. When I came to legacy I was very hurt and still holding on to anger as if it was my friend but then I found the true love of God.

For me my life has changed in ways i can't even explain. The feeling of Gods presents in my life really fills that empty space i was looking for. When i first came to legacy i felt as if i was just this ordinary girl but God has made me feel like i was worth it. He gave me the confidence and deep affection to want more of him. I always wanted to feel that love for God the way others expressed towards him but now feel like I'm reaching this spiritual growth that I'm still trying to grasped the idea. Right now God is like my best friend, I get to really expressed myself like Mr Larry said "to know God on a personal level". Right now since I've been back from legacy I'm definitely making really good choices now and just walking my true journey.
well I feel alive and free and now i am set free.

My advice is for youths out there is just to continue your walk with God and believe that he will never let you go even when you let him go.

Last year when I first attended Legacy Youth Conference, I didn't know what to expect. Honestly, I thought that it was just another youth camp. But my perception of what Legacy was would soon be changed. My first night into the worship session was like something from out of a horror movie. To see teenagers act like that: praising and worshiping God so passionately. I thought to myself while watching them with a really scared look on my face, "...Lunatics!!!" I'm proud to say that by the end of that week in Legacy, I too was a Lunatic. We were all Jesus Freaks.

That week was nothing like I have ever experienced. It was extremely radical, both in the teachings and in the worship. I too was bowing my knees before God in total awe of Him, I too was actually writing notes in a teaching session. I couldn't even believe myself, "Am I actually doing this?" But I was, for I was changed, never to be the same again. I didn't care what anybody else would say about me, because God deserves the glory. Legacy was a week filled with breakthroughs after breakthroughs. I didn't think that I was capable of letting go so many wrong things in my life. I was dumbfounded by the awesomeness (if there is such a word) of God, literally stopped in my tracks by his sheer presence. It was truly amazing.

Ever since then, my youths can tell you how much I encouraged them to attend the other Legacy. When I see them also worshiping God in a passionate way, it fills my heart with encouragement and hope for this generation...and also I little bit of pride. Legacy is something that I, and I'm quite sure everyone else who attended, will never forget.

For me it was when that young man from George town got bold and made a public statement to save himself for marriage because he now knew god's plan for his life. I realized that the Holy Spirit moved in his life and that Legacy broke thru to this young man. ' if for one lost lamb,' he was worth it. I like to see young men step up.

we must pray that he is keep tender to the lord and that the devil not infiltrate his life and mind.
