New Blog

Well I guess this is my new blog. I suppose I have given into the peer pressure of starting a blog. If I had anything important to say that had any significance I would have to say that I am so very excited about the move of God we are seeing in Littlefield.

The Bible tells us that our Father in heaven calls things that are not as though they are. This means that He is proclaiming things that do not exist. He is speaking about things in such a way and all the evidence is to the contrary. That is His nature and if we are led by the Holy Spirit then it is our nature. This is written in our DNA to call things that are not as though they are. How does this work?

We are the distributors of the Kingdom of God. The Kingdom is distributed through relationships. We receive of this realm through our relationship with God. We are transformed into His likeness from glory to glory. The more we spend time in this glory, in His presence, the more we become like Him. Good company corrupts bad character. The point is that from that relationship we receive of the Kingdom of heaven. We receive from the Kingdom to give it away through relationships with others. Therefore, if I am going to call things that are not as though they are I need to see people that way. This means that I tip a bad waitress as I would a good waitress. This means I am to love those who don't deserve it. That is the nature of our Father in heaven and He is writing this into our DNA.
God bless you and cause His face to shine upon you! Psalm 67:1,2,7
