When God dreams for us...

When we are doing what God wants us to be doing – we will be amazed and perplexed at how everything just seems to work our way. When we do what God wants us to do, when we go where God wants us to go, when we are about what God wants us to be about and when we do it in the timing that He wants – He moves Heaven and earth to bring things about.

It’s about living in our “sweet spot” of life. It’s when we get up in the morning and look forward to the day. It’s when, in the middle of the day, we get energized doing what we are doing. It’s when as we are fulfilling God’s purpose for our life and our work in the world, that we live the most abundant lives possible for us to live.

That is one reason why it is so important to marry the right person, and to go to the right church, and to pursue and hang out with the right friends. People affect us more than we know and we in turn affect them. Life was created to be lived together, not alone. God even said that it was not good for man to be alone. Community, family, friendship, love. It is all a part of God’s plan for our lives.

So be desperate for it, be passionate about it, pray and fast and seek and ask day and night until you find it – God’s sweet spot in life for you. Living life with the right people, in the right place, and at the right time… do this, and you will start living life on a level that you never even thought was possible nor existed.

God gives us enough energy to accomplish that which He purposed for us. We don’t have enough energy to do a lot of other stuff.

It’s really very simple. Step one, go home, shut the door, turn off the phone and TV and all distractions and sit down. Then open your Bible and read, then pray, then sit and be silent and listen to what God has to say to you.

Step two, do whatever God tells you to do and you will live in your sweet spot in life.

Just pray and obey. That’s it. We as believers have the highest privilege and greatest resources known to mankind throughout history: we get to live life under the direction of God. All we have to do, is take the time to listen to what He has to say, and then do it.

He can give much needed creativity and energy.
He can provide opportunities and favor.
He can make a way where there seems to be no way.
He can add zeros to a bank account.
Truly, what is impossible for man is possible for God.
All we have to do is believe.
He cares more about our lives and our impact on the world than we do because He understands all of the consequences of our actions better than we do, as well as the urgency of the hour and day in which we live.
He is no respecter of persons – He will give as much of Himself to anyone who goes after it.
What a man sows, that he will reap (a good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and overflowing) This law applies to everything, not just money.
God can give you a blank check, all you have to do is live a life that proves you can handle getting that from God – what would you do with it? Would you spend it on your own pleasures, or would you support the Church and Israel?
He can provide for your life everything that you need – and more so
All that He wants from us, is to yield to Him and trust Him with everything. All He wants from us is to consider Him our only supply. He is our provider and protector, hope giver, dream restorer, and our everything.

He wants to be our Father.

All we have to do is let Him love us. It is a love that is more than we could ever have imagined. It is greater, it is better, it is richer, it is fuller. It is so much more than we could ever even imagine it could be in this life. For eternity, we will still be finding out more and more about the inexhaustible, inexpressible, irrepressible, unfathomable, heart breaking Love of God.

The Love of God for us is more than we could know. All that He wants from us, is to let Him love us. Let Him in. Let Him be Lord of our lives. Let Him be our day planner. Let Him be our friend-chooser. Let Him be our love story writer. Let Him be our provider. Let Him be the one from whom we expect and receive good gifts that come down to us from our Father of Heavenly lights. He just wants us to let Him be God to us.

Oh the depths of the riches of the wonders in the knowledge of God.
No tongue or language of men or angels could ever describe.
This divine and supernatural love
It is to us like a waterfall - ceaselessly flowing, endlessly cascading, overwhelming us and carrying us away. It is impossible to stand up where the water lands from the fall into the pool. The very force and weight of the water is too great. So it is with the Love of God. His Love floors us. It overwhelms us. It
flattens us. It takes us away.

----------------------------------------------

So Oh Lord, let me love You more. Let me let You love me more and love me how You want to love me. I want to be loved by You how You want to love me. I want everything that You want to give me. I want to do everything that You want me to do. I want all that You desire and dream for me. Overwhelm me in life Oh my King. Thank You Oh my Father and my God. I love You. You are my God. I give my life to You.
