What if..

What if the things in our thoughts and our prayers really happened? What if those things we saw prophetically really came to pass? What if the people of God really believed that the Lord moved in them and that they were His agents of change in the world today? What if the people of God let a passion for Jesus burn in their hearts and lives so much that it made them live differently, and even show forth the power of the Gospel?

What makes us think that these things don't happen? Just imagine how much could happen if we stopped wondering and thinking about possibilities, and actually started doing them. It is my persuasion that if we would just say yes to Jesus and all that He wants to open up to us that our lives would start changing. If Christians started putting faith into action, then maybe we won't need Church programs to work things up - maybe there will be so much life and vitality in the people of God that those in the world would see and start wanting to come to the Lord?

I do know that the Lord wants us to dream and to see possibilities and not to stop there, but start letting the dreams become a part of our reality. Eph 3:20 says, Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us. Exceedinly abundantly about all that we ask, and above all that we think - and He does this by the power that is in us, the mighty force of God that raised Christ from the dead, the mighty force that worked in the first Church in the book of Acts.

Wow - just think of the possibilities if the people of God really got into Him. Got into Him so much that it started something happening that was bigger and greater than the things around us in the world! This would be putting into action some of that resurection power that God has invested in us who believe. What if....
