What Will You Do When Worship Is Over?

So ya, spiritual warfare is the topic this week. The speaker sounds exactly like Mr. Cairancross (sp? my bad). So ya it's pretty crazy ... well it's kind of a cross between him and Bob the tomato from veggie tale YA VEGGIE TALES! But anyways.. no crazy exciting news to update you with, although I did have this crazy experience today but I'm still going through it all.. so more on that later.

Anyways so last night, well yesterday was the due date for finances for outreach, and so last night we had worship and prayer (normally it's our free night but we did this instead). It was incredible. I have never in my life experienced worship so powerful. Chenaniah lead worship incredibly.. a lot of fun a lot of God .. a lot of awesome. i absolutely loved it.. every minute. As so I've always struggled with hearing from God and as we were worshipping I just prayed out to hear from Him and a little while later I got a few words in my head and I was like ... "okay well what does that have to do with anything.. is it for the group? just mean.. details please!" so then as we were praying in our outreach teams after worship I found myself repeating it as we all yelled out to God .. and I was like.. wow okay. So I said, "God is this You? Give me something .. please!" so Matthew stuck out in my head and then like as fast as anything I got 14:27 and I was like.. k this never works but I'll go for it. And it says "Have courage.. it is I... Don't be afraid" I read it like twice before I was like.. oh geez, it worked lol so then I was like "sweet okay so its you, but what am I not suppose to be afraid of?" and i was praying into that for a while and didn't get a lot so I was like.. I'll keep it on the DL for a while .. I found out what that reason was today - at least I think I did and it was terrifyingly awesome. Anyways so later on I was sitting in the corner just watching in awe of what God wad doing as we were all encouraging eachother and worshipping and I was like 'wow this is amazing' and then Zechariah of all books pops up and I'm like.. "wow random" right? So I open it up and the first verse I see is 1:10 and it basically says thats these are the ones I am sending into all the earth and I was like.. yes yes they / we are! and then I kept reading and it got a little negative so I continued hoping for some prophetic word to encourage someone with and by 14 or 15 it says that He was angry with some nations or something .. and that he was angry with otheres because they were living too securely or something.. so God just really layed it on my heart that we need to be willilng to be uncomfortable on outreach to be used in the way He intends us to be used.. So ya it was really neat. The last like 2 days have been 2 incredible God days.

Shout out to Aggie for helping me get through today..

anyways so my challenge - go make yourself do something uncomfortable - see how God's going to use you.
