No matter what, the answer is yes to Jesus!

Oh, the disentangling of God’s Will!  It’s been an interesting last few weeks.  Pastor Carlos, the president of Church on the Rock Mexico with hundreds of tribal churches through the mountains of Mexico, was here these last 3 days.  We were able to spend many hours in the prayer room upstairs sharing our hearts as pastors.  Between myself, Pastor Lawrence, the elders, and Pastor Carlos, we were able to pray and think things through to interpret what we sense God to be saying to us.

Ecclesiastes 3 verse 3 states, “there is a time to tear down, and a time to build.”  The key is, using discernment to figure out which of the two God is doing.  You do not want to work against God.  There are seasons to everything, and today could be a downward momentum directionally, and tomorrow, the opposite could be true.

As we work through these next few weeks, I want wisdom and discernment in what the Lord is doing.  I want to work in sync with Him.  This is important, because usually, and sometimes, something must be torn down in order to be built up.  This is the role of brokenness plays in our lives.  Each of us must walk through a process of allowing ourselves to be reduced of our unneeded areas, and built up in crucial areas where we need His life and help.

Let’s pray through these next few weeks… - Pastor

Well, this week is a tremendous week in the history of our church.  This Saturday is the official launching of our “School of the Pastor.”  So far 35 or so people are enrolled and desiring to be a part of the training school.

It’s an awesome time in our destiny.  As a staff, we have been praying and truly seeking God right now for clear strategy.  It’s amazing how faithful the Lord continues to prove Himself as we press into those things He is unfolding to us.

Ever since our corporate fast, something was tweaked in my spirit.  Psalm 96:3 “Declare His glory among the nations, His marvelous deeds among all peoples.”

Here recently, I have been surrendering to the truth that I want the glory of God more than I do to have a successful ministry or to be able to minister myself.  I simply want to set apart what I believe is a ministry to see the glory of God.  I do not believe that anything matters to me regarding ministerial successes.  The main thing for me, is that glory realm where we get to see Christ and Who He is.  I need Him.

I am willing to set apart my agenda or plans to give Him full room to do what He wants.  As far as having a preaching/teaching ministry, I would rather have a pathetic ministry yet see one person either healed or delivered.  One touch from Him makes everything okay.  We are nothing but empty and broken vessals whom He chooses to move through in His mercy and grace.

Well, it’s Wednesday night, and the prayer summit officially ended this morning after breakfast.  We spent all day Monday and all day Tuesday in prayer and seeking after God.  It was quite an amazing time of strategy and hearing from God.

More than anything, we felt God’s amazing drawing; with the emphasis on making our pursuit clearly after the Glory of God.  We felt an unveiling of our truest DNA, and that is, that we are a crazy bunch of men of God who are really assigned to hunger and chase hard after our Christ.

I am excited at the things we felt the Lord impart and give us as a clear act of mercy.  As the rest of this year unfolds, I would like to blog more about it, but I probably need just a little time to process it all.  In all patience, I want to make sure I fully interpret the incredible sense of visitation we felt this week.  As I feel I can articulate it, and as Pastor Lawrence and I come to a release about it, I would like to talk a little more about it.
