Heavenly Intel\n

On a recent trip to Africa, I had a mission on my mission trip. At 36,000 feet on a very long flight, I was trying to keep my mind occupied when the Lord stepped in and gave me three God-thoughts, or Holy Ghost flashcards if you will. They went like this:\n

Boom! Little boy, orphaned, unloved, dejected. Boom! Under a tree, crying, sad, helpless. Boom! Broken arm, pain, and ongoing anxiety. Right away, I knew God had spoken to me, so I told Leanna we were going to be on the lookout for an orphan boy under a tree with a broken arm. \u201cWe are going to help him,\u201d I told her.\n

Now, words cannot describe the welcome we get when we arrive at one of our orphanages. It\u2019s a celebration. I imagine it’s something like your first day in Heaven. The music is blaring, and there are people dancing and celebrating. I never get tired of it.\n

On this trip, we were engulfed in the celebration when I looked over the heads of my beloved Ugandan munchkins, and there he was! The boy God had told me about. He was standing naked under a tree, crying and holding his arm. \u201cThere he is,\u201d I shouted at Leanna. Now my wife has a real way with children. The minute she saw him, she abandoned the celebration and held him in her arms. He was terrified because she was the first white person he\u2019d ever seen, but that didn\u2019t last long as her words and gestures soothed him.\n

It was just like God had said. I knew we had been sent there just for him because God sees the evil done to the orphaned. You know, we were all once orphaned, stumbling around in pain, unloved and lonely. Then Father God sent Jesus to round us up and make us part of the family.\n

Now He who searches the heart knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. \u2013 Romans 8:27","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"}">Heavenly Intel

Grounded in FaithDeclare!

I rejoice that the Lord gives me visions and words of knowledge so that I don’t miss a thing He wants to do in the world through me. Spirit-filled living is the abundant life that Jesus wants me to have. It is exciting and blesses my life.
