Move of Spirit\n

Want to move into something better \u2013 a better job, house, or relationship with Jesus? Prepare by packing up the past and going after your destiny. God rewards pursuit!\u00a0\n

In the early 1990s, I was preparing to leave on a mission trip to New Orleans. My wife dropped me off at the house of Pastor James \u201cI feel God\u201d Brown, a friend. When he came to the door, he hugged me and invited me in saying, \u201cPlease excuse our mess. My wife\u2019s done lost her mind.\u201d\u00a0\n

I was seriously wondering what he was talking about until I saw the mess. Inside the house, everything was packed into boxes, ready for a big move. I\u2019m talking everything \u2013 there were boxes from one end of the house to the other. \u201cWhere are you moving to?\u201d I asked.\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t know,\u201d Pastor Brown said. \u201cMy wife has been praying for a new house in a better neighborhood, and last week, she got a word that it was all about to happen. So this week, she packed it all up and said, \u2018God has a new house for me.\u2019\u201d\u00a0\n

We both busted out laughing and began making proclamations for a better home in a nicer area of town. That was the last time I ever went to that house because not long after, her big upgrade came. God answered her prayer. I don\u2019t know many people who would pack up before they knew where they were going, but Mrs. Brown did, and you know what? God loves that.\u00a0\n

God loves it when you pursue Him. He loves it when you pursue upgrade and believe that His promises are real for you today. Are you in need of an upgrade? Ask. Pray. Pursue.","hover":"\nWhich Wolf Do You Feed?\n

Jesus-driven thinking helps and heals. This is what the Bible has to say on the subject: For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. \u2013 Romans 8:6\n

The Cherokee nation knew it, too. Check out this spot-on tribal tale:\n

An old Cherokee chief was teaching his grandson about life. He told the boy, \u201cA terrible fight is going on inside me. It is a fight between two wolves. One wolf is evil. He is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and self-doubt.\"\n

The old man continued: \u201cThe other wolf is good. He is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.\u201d He then told the boy, \u201cThis same fight is going on inside you and inside every other person, too.\u201d\n

The grandson thought about it for a minute, then asked his grandfather, \u201cWhich wolf will win?\u201d The wise old chief replied, \u201cThe one you feed.\u201d\n

What wolf have you been feeding? Just know the wolf of evil thoughts will eventually devour you, and likely others as well. Thoughts become actions, and there is always collateral damage.\n

That\u2019s not you! You can control your thought life and ensure the evil wolf starves to death."}},"slug":"et_pb_blurb"}">Move of Spirit

In the early 1990s, I was preparing to leave on a mission trip to New Orleans. My wife dropped me off at the house of Pastor James “I feel God” Brown, a friend. When he came to the door, he hugged me and invited me in saying, “Please excuse our mess. My wife’s done lost her mind.”

I was seriously wondering what he was talking about until I saw the mess. Inside the house, everything was packed into boxes, ready for a big move. I’m talking everything – there were boxes from one end of the house to the other. “Where are you moving to?” I asked.

“We don’t know,” Pastor Brown said. “My wife has been praying for a new house in a better neighborhood, and last week, she got a word that it was all about to happen. So this week, she packed it all up and said, ‘God has a new house for me.’”

We both busted out laughing and began making proclamations for a better home in a nicer area of town. That was the last time I ever went to that house because not long after, her big upgrade came. God answered her prayer. I don’t know many people who would pack up before they knew where they were going, but Mrs. Brown did, and you know what? God loves that.

God loves it when you pursue Him. He loves it when you pursue upgrade and believe that His promises are real for you today. Are you in need of an upgrade? Ask. Pray. Pursue.

Grounded in FaithDeclare!

My faith is in God alone. When He has something for me, He will bring it to me at the perfect time in a perfect way. I keep my eyes and ears open, so I hear Him. I keep my heart pure and my hands clean so I can receive what He has for me.
