Vision

Scripture says that without vision, people perish
It also says to write the vision down and make it plain so people can run with it

So here's my vision, not just mine, but what I whole heartedly believe God is doing in this hour

It is time

It is time for us to walk into what God had originally planned for us to be.

Some of us are intercessors, some are teachers, some are angels in disguise full of gifts of mercy, some are savvy businessmen who know how to invest wisely and not hide their talent in the sand, there are prophets and singers and painters and dancers and healers and fiery preachers and humble servants and good listeners and good cooks with hearts to feed the poor. Yet we have been bound. We have been taught that we are only allowed to do the things our leaders tell us we are allowed to do. We are instructed to be instructed before we heal the sick. When will we stop reading and start reaching?

I heard a fabulous story about an African girl in a ministry school in Africa. She'd taken the courses three times and failed to pass the final exam every time. Her teachers were concerned for the test was only at a third grade level, so they asked their leader what they should do. He responded that they should just go ahead and pass her since she'd already raised four people from the dead!

I wish I could stand on a mountain top and shout "Be released!, be released!" to the body of Christ "You don't need the approval of any man to do what GOD is asking you to do!"

Paul was knocked off his horse and immediately went out preaching the gospel.
It was THREE YEARS before he went back to the church in Jerusalem and discussed his ministry with them.

We are a body

We are not a few heads and many feet

Christ is our head and we are arms and legs and fingers and toes and noses and lips and ears that hear

I believe it is time we get free and just do the things we have desired to do for so long

Have you always wanted to play music in the park? Do it!

Have you always wanted to go to the hospital and pray for the sick? Do it!

Have you always wanted to feed the hungry? Make sandwiches and bring them to the mall!

We must become a mighty army spread out across this world. A body so filled with the vision of living and loving as Christ would that we are compelled to go..... go to the hurting, go to the hungry, go to the sick and the dead no matter the consequences.
Then we will be unstoppable, sold out to the cause of Christ and able to turn our world upside down.
Without this, it will never happen
Because a thousand ordained preachers cannot reach the world
But ten million believers can
