“WHEN I SAY TO THE WICKED, O WICKED MAN, YOU SHALL SURELY DIE, AND YOU DO NOT SPEAK TO WARN THE WICKED FROM HIS WAY, THAT WICKED MAN SHALL DIE IN HIS PERVERSITY AND INIQUITY, BUT HIS BLOOD WILL I REQUIRE AT YOUR HAND.” – Ezekiel 33:8
“GET REAL”

“ACT AND GOD WILL ACT,” is a quote by Joan of Arc, who lived from 1412-1431. At the age of 19 she was burned at the stake.
I (we) experienced that the Lord will act when we act in Kaikohe many years ago while working there as missionaries in a special way. (United Maori Mission)
I remember Monty Tito, who did not only preach in the church, but also on the street.
He had also musical gifts. The day came when the Lord gave him the vision to raise up a group of musicians, a band, playing together and going places.
We called the band “GET REAL”.
One place we went to was a Marae not far from Ohaiawai. For those who do not know a Marae is a Maori Meeting house and its buildings.
I still remember the speaker of the evening. His wife was very much involved in getting the Bible into the schools.
But what a joy it was to see how the community worked together, I was so impressed with the work done in the kitchen and the food provided.
It is true, “ACT AND GOD WILL ACT”.
Entering at the present time the Salvation Army place here in Kaitaia on Commerce Street you cannot miss the “QUOTES TO LIVE BY” by Martin Luther King Jr stuck to the wall above the book table. One of the quotes says:
“FAITH IS TAKING THE FIRST STEP WHEN YOU DON’T SEE THE WHOLE STAIRCASE.”

“DON’T WAIT. THE TIME WILL NEVER BE JUST RIGHT.”
“As God’s fellow workers we urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain. For he says, ‘In the time of my favor I have heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.’ I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation.”
