We have been called out of this slumber to do a great work--NO MORE CHURCH AS USUAL--and I truly believe that we are on the verge of an amazing end time revival! I have been blessed to be able to watch the parable of the "great banquet" (Luke 14 at bottom) become a reality-- I believe that God is pulling His Church out of the ditches and the low places. The "highways & hedges"
I am surrounded by miracles; men and women who have came from the ditches and have stepped into pulpits in the jails, the dark places and in the very ditches from which they themselves were saved! Many people reject the very idea that a former junkie, or a felon could possibly be called to do the work of God, and so often we feel the punch of rejection and disapproval.
We have also experienced straight up sabotage; or shall I say attempts to sabotage our ministry or even our integrity...but they are only boxing with God! I have watched God rise up and fight every battle that comes our way. It took me a little while to stand back and let someone else fight my battles, I was raised to defend myself at all cost, then I met God and He said that the battle was not mine but His...
Unfortunately, some people (NOT ALL) don't like success unless it's their own so they attempt to tear it down...but take heart; if God built it there is NO MAN that can destroy it! So if you see me standing on the sidelines with my hands lifted in surrender, don't celebrate too quickly, I am simply allowing God to step into the ring...and if you're foolish enough to box with Him have at it!!!
Be encouraged--It may feel like you are surrounded by enemies, but if it's from God no one will be able to stop you!!! Step back and let God fight for you--I promise HE WON'T LOSE!!!
