Are you satisfied with just a little of God?
Do you have God right where you want Him?
Do you have just the right mix of God in your life?
I don’t know about you but I am tired of just settling for a little bit of God. Tired of settling for just a little bit of His spirit. Tired of just talking to Him in the morning when I wake up, in the evening before I go to bed and thanking Him before I stuff my face. Let’s face it. Most of us just want a little stream. We don’t want RIVERS OF LIVING WATER.
We don’t want to be drowned.
I am tired of watching from the window while people are worshipping Him inside. We are scared to get up close and personal because we don’t know what might happen. What if I raise BOTH hands? Or God forbid…what if I dance, kneel or lay on the floor in front of others? We are too reverent. We are too quiet because church has become just the “House of the Lord.” Shhhhh…be quiet…this is God’s house. Let me ask you...when we are in Heaven in God’s presence…do you think it will be quiet and reserved? Please.
Like Peter after he denied Jesus three times we are following Jesus but we are following Him AT A DISTANCE. (Matthew 26:58)
We are followers of Jesus sure.
But let’s admit it. We are DISTANT followers.
Check out 2 Samuel 6:16 and see what Michal does while David is dancing before the Lord and adoring Him. Are you like Michal? I ain’t gonna lie. I was just like Michal up until about a week ago but God has set me free.
Do you judge how other people worship God? Do you criticize them in your heart because they are different from you? Do you have a spirit of criticism and division in your heart?
It’s time for you and it’s time for me to come inside. God has given us too much time already. 2,000 years. It is time to kick it into gear. We need more urgency.
There is not enough time to just sit back in church and listen.
It is time to put our beliefs into practice and into action. We believe in Jesus…great. But what are we doing about it?
Are we just watching from the window?

dude, straight up. Both hands...'cause if you have 2 hands, why would you raise just one to praise HIM?
Both hands, prostrate on the floor...and then up dancing as well!!! God is sovereign...we have nothing to fear but ourselves! He loves us and wants us to be FREE!!
This is a great work that you are doing here. I like your blog. Stay positive!
Best regards,
