i am just taking a second to post a quote from a sermon i was listening to from the pastor of Hillsong Church in Australia. if you get a chance - go to itunes, its free to download and listen to. the one this is from is "When Ordinary People Pray...Part 2" loved it.
i hope you are blessed by it too! :)
"when did you last get indignant about the devil trying to steal your joy? about the plight of people who are suffering? when did you last get indignant about the devil trying to rob you of the purpose God has for your life? when people get indignant they pray fervently-passionately...God answers the fervent, real, authentic, desperate prayers of the righteous...who are the righteous? you are. you are made righteous by Christ - therefore your prayers are valuable, your prayers are answered, your prayers are effective and powerful. you have been given the gift, the miracle of righteousness - anyone who comes before Him humbly, opening their lives to Christ...they are made righteous which means our prayers are no longer based on us - but His will and His ability. so pray. and expect big things. "
amen, huh???
have a happy and beautifully blessed friday!
and make sure to come back later on tonight...we had a working meeting on monday, haha, so for last night's meeting - after a time of devos and diving into more psalms - we had a play time with some stage makeup...which can only mean that somehow we went really late, i have henna on my arm covered by a sweater that keeps pulling at it haha, drinking some pretty great office coffee cuz i forgot mine at home, and some pretty epic pics are to come.
