Growing Up

What a revival sabbath! The Holy Ghost was in the place... The Leeds Church was packed with worshippers from all over the world. Hundreds gathered as we ended the second week of a three week revival. Last night we had a an amazing half night of praying, preaching, and praising. We danced, anointed and testified. What a night! We where to end at mid-night but we continued to sing and testify. Thanks to Louanne our singing evangelist and all of you for your prayers. Lets keep praying as we enter our final week on the "Latter Rain" You can listen nightly at 7:15pm on www.medianetgospel.com Growing Up “You, therefore, must be perfect [growing into complete maturity of godliness in mind and character, having reached the proper height of virtue and integrity], as your heavenly Father is perfect” (Matthew 5:48, AMP)   One thing I’ve learned is that just because God puts a dream in our hearts doesn’t mean it’s going to come to pass without any opposition. See, God is going to grow us up. He’s going to mature us. He’s going to prepare us to handle the promotion He has in store. I think about Joseph in the Bible. Starting out, he didn’t have a whole lot of wisdom. He was young and immature, and God had to do a work in his life. Joseph probably shouldn’t have told his brothers about his dream that they would one day serve him! As you can imagine, his brothers were not nearly as excited about that as he was. Long story short, Joseph had to go through some things to grow up and be ready for the promotion God had in store. Friend, it’s the same way with us today. You may have a dream in your heart that seems a million miles away, but just like Joseph, God can take you from the prison to the palace in one step. During the growing process, keep yourself focused on Him and allow Him to do His work in your life. Keep a humble attitude of faith before Him, and He will lead you and guide you into the destiny He has prepared for you! Pray With Me Father, thank You for working Your process in my life. I want to grow in You so that I can be prepared for the promotion that is in my future. Today, I humbly submit myself to You knowing that You have a good plan in store for me. In Jesus’ name, amen.
