“Lord, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, O Lord. Renew them in our day, in our time make them known.” Hab 3:2

This morning, I found myself praying this amazing scripture. With an overwhelming sense of, “I can’t wait to see what He does,” I have been reminded that our God is a great God whose nature is to defy trends and to prove critics wrong. He is the One who moves monstrous mountains, calms seas of chaos, and does impossible things as if they were merely improbable.

Our God is willing and able to exert His power and to captivate our culture…and I believe He is on the brink of doing something so significant…so phenomenal that people will struggle to explain it away without having to consider His intervention.

I believe that will be a collaborative effort that will be birthed and sustained through selfless people/organizations that have committed themselves to prayer and relentless Kingdom pursuits. I am excited to both play a part in what He is about to do as well as enjoy the view. My cry is, “We have heard of your fame, we have read the stories, seen your power, but do something new. O Lord, renew them in our day. In our times make your power, your might, your hope, your peace, your love, and your will known. “

Will you join me in praying for God’s will to be released so that we will begin to see the harvest? Will you ask God to release a great outpouring that can be described as nothing else than the hand of God?

I received this message from a FB friend who brought some students to a camp I spoke at this summer. I loved hearing it and thought you might as well.

Your message on shame completely changed the lives of 2 girls in my youth group. They have both been suicidal for about a year now and its been nearly impossible to show them how much God loves them and how much they mean to everyone around them. No one knew except for a few people because they always seemed so happy. But now they are both doing great and have found help, peace, love, and comfort. The friday night before camp one of the girls was ready to end it but decided to wait until after camp, she said the knife would still be there, so a week away from home and family couldn’t hurt anything. God radically changed her life that week and she said she hasn’t thought about death or suicide or anything along those lines since. She said she can feel God’s arms around her everywhere she goes and can finally see how much He loves her. She knows now that she is good enough and that He loves her more than she can imagine. I just thought you would appreciate that testimony.
