THE POWER of presence...

Over the years those of you who know me have often heard me talk about the poewr of presence. The principles that:
 1. Since God created this world for us- Human activity determines the identity of place.
2. The most consistent, visible constant presence will have dominion or take possession of a place.
3. God has called us to possess the land by faith and occupy until He comes.
4. He orders the steps of the righteous.
5. He has recreated you for good works created beforehand that you might walk in them.
6. Every place on which your foot shall tread He has given it to you...

etc...

The bottom line is we have to be a consitent visable presence for Christ everyday, everywhere in everyway we can. As we walk in faith, we walk into good works, divine appointments and as we walk in those things GOD has prepared we occupy that space and bring his dominion. The question remains though- What are we beleiving GOD for as we walk around? Are we walking by faith claiming the ground HE has for us or are we just walking around. 

Everywhere I look I see hurting broken people needing the  real Isaiah 61 annointing and ministry that has been poured out on us as HIS people. He has promised to fill us with HIS Spirit and give us power to set freem bind up broken hearts, give beauty for ashes, praise for depression and so much more. LORD I know you want us to walk in the power of your presence and BE a powerful presence in this dark depressing broken world. Then those broken hurting lives will become OAKS of righteousness. They will rebuild the ancient ruins, the desolations of generations.  Thank GOD we don't have to have a "service" with 3 fast songs and 2 slow songs to bring that power to our world. We don't have to start a 501c3 and set upa constitution to be a lifegiving, lifechanging presence in the world where we live, work and walk everyday. So arise and shine church its time.

BLESS YOU!
