I just absolutely love it when God gives us little winks to let us know that He is there and He is aware of every seemingly minute thought. I know I kind of wrote a little bit about this yesterday, but it is really cool. Yesterday I was at the library with some friends and I saw this movie title and I thought, "wow that looks cool, I kinda want to see that." Not wanting to look like a dork, I said nothing... To anyone. Later that night my friend Megan texts me and we were making plans for girls night and she mentioned that she had the same movie I had seen that day at the library.
She brought the movie over tonight... Faith like Potatoes. It was awesome! The main guy in the movie starts out all grumpy and crazy and then he gives his heart to Jesus and just like a simple child he takes the Bible at face value. If Mark 11:24 says that I can have whatever I say if I believe that I have already received it then it will be mine... then it will be mine. If God raised the dead through Elisha and Jesus, why not through me. The guy is so on fire for God that when the villagers come and get this guy after a village girl was struck by lightening, he goes running, gets to her hut, goes in and picks her up and tells her to live in Jesus' Name!
Now that is what I am talking about! Not so much the jerking dead people out of coffins or anything, not that I wouldn't want to see that because I do, but more that crazy kind of faith that will believe for the impossible. Throughout the movie the guy faced many more trials but he still believed and confessed God's word. In the end, God gave him some direction on how to do something. Everyone around him said it was impossible. He believed God instead and reaped the most UNBELIEVABLE harvest.
I wonder what would happen if all Christians started believing what the Word said. If we acted like it was truth and were obedient and did what it said? I believe the harvest would be exponential for us as well. I am going to start actively working on believing Him for everything. It says that these signs shall follow them that believe... it's a promise... they shall lay hands on the sick and see them recover, cast out demons in My Name, and drink any evil thing and it will not harm them. We will see the dead raised, the blind seeing, the deaf hearing, and the lame walking. If it is happening in other parts of the world then it can happen here too. God does not love any of us more than any other, and what He will do for one He will do for any of us!
Father, Help me to believe Your Word like a little child full of faith. Help me to be obedient to Your call and to walk in all of Your ways, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
