- Attended Hillsong Sunday Celebration.

- Bobbie Houston, wife of Pastor Brian Houston - gave the message of God's Word from Isa 5:1-7

- She urged the body of Christ, the church - to:

1) Be a good steward of God's given good ground (v1).

2) To clear the good ground of stones (v2).

3) Plant choicest vines on Abba's good ground (v2).

4) Be alert on His watchtower (v.2).

5) Don't despise the winepress of life (v.2) - for it can squeeze out the best in us.

- As I went back and meditated on the sermon, I thank Abba that Jesus became The Sacrifice to bear all my punishment at The Winepress - so that now, in Him, there is no more condemning winepress for me - yes, no and never, hallelujah. I cried tears of joy at this revelation!
