Supernatural church…hmmmmmm

 This chapter is the hardest for me as a pastor in the church. You see there are plans we can make and have a great things happen, but not be in God’s will.  It becomes a crazy thing when we look at a church and ask the question are we supernatural?

 I look at my church and I want to see a revival of our souls.  I beg the Lord to grow us and move us to a place of being in the wind of the Spirit.  Let’s just forget about all the scorecard crap and focus on the lives and the souls of those that the Spirit brings us!

WOW!  Imagine how it will be?  Imagine the craziness within the church?  Our plans would be shorter term?  Our direction would be pointed at a horizon…

 I do not want to write more on this…I am just going to end this chapter on this…

 Are you ready to have a life that is Spirit lead…that grows into a contagious wildfire that rips through the church that makes heads turn and stirs the soul?  Are you ready to be a vessel?  I am…

Ugh…did he really have to write this chapter?  I always wanted to be that guy…the one that just gets all the information of God dumped right into my lap.  I want my plan all laid out and told to me in an instant.  A great download of the Spirit that prepares me for everything to come and is a simple easy package.  Open and read the contents inside for a wonderful trip with God…UGH!

 Commitment to a daily following…a chance to look over the next 10 minutes is something that truly pushes me to ask the question what does the next 10 minutes hold for me.  When it is all said and done I have to truly look at the concept of not having a “little God” in my life…hmmm

 Ok so I am picturing the view of what it means to run from Hell to the arms of God?  Do I truly run on a daily basis to get as far from the edge as possible so I don’t even give the hint of going towards Hell? MAN! Really?  It is now begging the question “What now?”  How do I push myself out of a semi-moral realm?  I have this some days.  I have these moments when I just don’t care.  I don’t want to get pushed or to follow…I…want…to sit.  Oh trust me everyone says sit, its ok, right?  Its ok to just take a week off from listening to God and just ignore the Spirit and frankly just end up in a world that is well..Godless RIGHT?

WRONG!
