Do We Really Want "IT"?

Do we really want to see God move in a way that would totally mess our plans up? I, and many others have been saying for a while now that we want to be part of a great move of God, but with that comes a death. The death of self. Do we really want what we say we want? We talk about it. We seem to look for it as if we would know where to find it. We might even go as far as saying, "Lord whatever it takes, we want to be a part of a great move of Your Spirit." But do we really mean "IT"?

I want it! But, how can you want something that you don't comprehend, see, and are absolutely afraid of? I'm not really sure. We can look at the disciples and how they spoke with their actions. Their actions said two things; 1. It's worthy trying for 2. It's worthy dying for

I want "IT"! Don't you?

"Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.(1 Corinthians 2:9 NKJV)

Come on Jesus!

Sorry....pet peve of mine...
Finish the verse...
"But God has revealed it to us by his Spirit."

The next move or the next, next move will not look like what we think it will. It will probably not be for the purpose we think it will be for. It may even catch us off guard. But it will be God and we will be asked to jump in the river. let's do so together.

WE met some time ago at Vineyard Gadsden. I've throughly enjoyed reading your blog.

Came across a bit harsh.
Forgive me.
I have followed your journey through Bobby and Lane Smith and even though you don't really know me, I have been praying for you that God would bring out everything needed in your walk with Him.
Blessings on your family....

I appreciate your first response and did not consider it harsh at all. Just been too busy to respond. I have often wondered if anyone read this blog except for me and Bobby. I pray things are going great at Rapha!

Concerning my journey; Not sure exactly where my family will end up but I do know we are going.
