Fulfillment of a hearts cry...

Two years ago I was sitting in a Timothy Team leadership meeting when The Orange County Circuit Riders outreach was mentioned...as a ministry we were going to partner with YWAM Kona and see a wave of revival rise up in Huntington Beach- land of the Jesus Movement. When I heard it something in me just screamed Yes Yes Yes! Lord, send me! I honestly nearly lept out of my seat with excitement a me didn't even fully know why. 

Several weeks later I was on the road, headed to set up and do the ground work for 300ish wild eyed Circuit Riders. It wasn't until tonight that I got a fuller realty of what I am a part of, and I can't get over it.....I get to be on the forefront of one of the biggest thrusts of the Kingdom of God in all time. 

We sat in Amy's living room tonight (one of the forerunners of Circuit riders) and as I listened to her share the testimony and history of what has happened these last couple of years, I had the same reminder..the leaping out of my chair with excitement. I recognize it..it's the Spirit of God bearing witness. The story continues...

Last year we hosted The School of the Circuit Rider in our city- in fact in the very epicenter of Denver, in a messianic synagogue...in a city where the majority (around 94-97% don't know Jesus. And in that two week period over 200 people.gave their lives to Jesus. Again, overwhelmed that The Father let me be involved in the process of setting everything up to see His dreams become reality. Wow...simply by saying YES to Him! I can't even get over it. 

Now, in this moment, I am in California- about to be a student in The School of the Circuit Rider, along with the entire WISE school. This is something me and my friend Mary dreamed about last year...and now we are both here....My heart is full of Joy and anticipation and its just the beginning!   

The lost are being found, the blind are seeing...Jesus is being preached to the whole world...and He invited me to be a part of it...He is inviting you too. Won't you come along? Just be prepared to hold on tight to Him because it isn't a ride for the faint of heart. 

OUR GOOD GOOD DADDY.

I desperately desire to communicate the heart of the Father- to shout it from the roof top, I want the world to know- WE HAVE A GOOD DADDY! Oh, how he loves us so..and it's heart breaking when His kids don't know it..when they believe the lies of the enemy, the liar from the beginning. 

There was a song we used to sing when I was a kid and whining and complaining. "Nobody likes me, everybody hates me- guess I'll go eat worms." WHAT?! Nothing could be further from the truth because actually- I'm so loved. And so are you. 

I was laying in the tent while we were camping this past weekend and pondering this thought, and the lyrics to an old hymn ran through my head "I'm a child of a King, a child of a King, with Jesus my Savior-I'm a child of a King." 

Do you know what that means?! Our Dad is the King of the Universe...and HE LIKES US. Whoa. And you know what? I have a pretty cool dad here on this planet-how much more amazing is our heavenly Father?! 

"I have NO greater Joy than this, than to know that my children walk in TRUTH." -I know why John said this. Because when I get to see someone capture the reality of their identity in Christ, they become unstoppable in the Kingdom of God. They begin to radically take Him at His Word. Nothing is off limits from Him in their lives- Purity and Holiness become a daily outcome, they listen and obey..they go anywhere, do anything..to see His Kingdom come and His will be done. They do it..not because it's a religious activity- but because it's a relationship. 

Our sustainability is in a love relationship with the King who loved us first. And it's for this reason that I will challenge the lies that people believe- to call out the Truth. Truth is found in the man- Jesus. Savior, Redeemer, Friend, Love. 

The World is DESPERATE for Love- for value- for meaning and purpose. 

Jesus really is the answer to all of it. He is love. He gives us value, meaning and purpose. 

Jesus is the BEST thing..

Life with Him IS the greatest adventure. 

I'm a child of a King...in Him, I lack nothing. 

Oh, do you know this? DO you know that you know who you are? Do you believe it? It's TRUE. 

Truth is not based on feeling- it's not based on popular ideas- It's based on the man- Jesus. He is TRUTH. What He says goes...

"I came that you would have life, and life to the full."

"You are the salt of the earth"

"You are the light of the world." 

"Do not worry about your life..what you will eat or drink.." 

"...How much more (than your earthly fathers) will I give what is good to those who ask."

"Your sins are forgiven."

"my yoke is easy and my burden is light." 

Just to declare some Truth...and oh there is so much more!
