Live Your Passion

I was recently asked on an application about what is my passion. Great question!
Here was my answer:
The thing I am most passionate about is seeing justice released in the Earth, for it is the very foundation of His throne, His rule. It is the foundation of the government of Heaven. One of the Greek words for justice is mishpat, which essentially means the rule of Heaven in the Earth. The standard of what is in Heaven belongs on the Earth and Jesus came back to restore this and commission His sons and daughters to do the same. We are to restore justice wherever we see injustice happening throughout the world. Whether that injustice takes the form of sickness in someone’s body, educational systems failing large segments of the population or even the refusal to educate girls because of their gender, laws that by nature are oppressive, people dying from water-born diseases, women being oppressed simply because people have misinterpreted their religions, or children being abused and misused for someone else’s gain and pleasure. It is our mandate to see all of these kinds of issues and so many more align with the Father’s heart and what is in Heaven.

My passion is to go to the hardest and most difficult places and situations and watch the Kingdom win! I have a passion to rescue women and children out of the sex trade. Nothing gets me more passionate and worked up than when I see the enemy terrorizing the very core and soul of people who are not in a position to defend themselves. It is my passion to see these women and children educated and empowered to live an abundant life and to see them bring Kingdom change to the world around them in their own communities. This might be the issue that I am most passionate about and moves me more deeply in my soul than almost anything else, but my passion is to see the fullness of the Kingdom released into all spheres of influence in every community and nation.

Whenever I have had the opportunity to work in a community or another country it is my deepest passion and desire to work with the key authority figures over the area and those who are being marginalized and oppressed. At one time Papa told me this was the High/Low approach. Both ends of the spectrum in a community or country need to be simultaneously “attacked” by the Kingdom. Father’s heart is always drawn to those who are being oppressed but often the quickest way to change a community and nation is if we can Kingdomize the people in leadership, in authority, and the ones making laws and standards that affect the community at large. The Father reached out to the poor and the broken while also challenging and influencing the established authority governing over people.

I am making a move to step into the fullness of my destiny to live out my passion. Words can not express how excited I am.

Dare to Dream Unreasonably!

In the beginning Papa God created the most beautiful home for us in the Garden of Eden. The Garden of Eden was a place of perfect peace, security, beauty, creativity and love. And it was in this place where God the Father and Adam his son dreamed together of what the world could be. There was no fear of failure or rejection or any thoughts that there would not be enough resources to fulfill their dreams. It was the perfect atmosphere to dream with Papa God.

Many of us, as children, had grandiose dreams of what we wanted to be when we grew up and how we would change the world. Somehow along the way, because of life circumstances and or choices, we have lost those dreams.

Well, it is time to revive those dreams and Dare To Dream with Papa God! Romans 8 tells us “the earth is groaning for the sons of God to be revealed.” Why? Because Papa wants us to dream with Him, release the kingdom, and see a world changed for His glory. What the world needs is inside of you! Christ in you, the hope of glory, will change the world! So be daring and dream unreasonably with your Papa God!

just stop for the one

i've been doing a lot of research lately, to get lots of facts and figures in my head about human trafficking, child slavery and many other dark issues that plague our world today. it can all be a bit overwhelming to say the least. the problems are so big, so massive. how are we going to break the chains and free the oppressed. there's so many that need to be freed, need to be rescued, need to be loved. how are we ever going to do it. then i am reminded of what i learned from heidi baker, just stop for the one. freeing the thousands starts with freeing the one. rescuing the thousands starts with rescuing the one. loving the thousands starts with loving the one. when i look at it that way then i don't get too overwhelmed because i can always stop for the one.

Go See Furious Love

 

On Sunday the 14th, I drove over an hour to get to a location that was showing this movie. I am so glad I did because it was amazing. If you've seen the Finger of God, this one does not disappoint. Darren Wilson has a very genuine way of navigating through some very deep issues to expose what everything
always comes down to..........LOVE.
Without it we are just noise to the world's collective ears. 

If the movie not playing at a church near you, then make sure to see it when it comes out on DVD.

Don't let the trailer scare you. It is meant to get your attention because the movie does address some heavy topics, but it does not show you anything graphic or scary.
