Make Room for God

Hi everyone!

38 days remaining til launch!  Who's excited!?!

The devotional is emailed to me every day.  I've been reading it off and on now for about 20 years, and I always get something from it.  Today, this spoke to me directly about NSDallas.  Wanted to share with you...

LEAVE ROOM FOR GOD

     But when it pleased God...

     Galatians 1:15

As workers for God we have to learn to make room for God - to give

God "elbow room." We calculate and estimate, and say that this and

that will happen, and we forget to make room for God to come in as He

chooses. Would we be surprised if God came into our meeting or into

our preaching in a way we had never looked for Him to come? Do not

look for God to come in any particular way, but look for Him. That is

the way to make room for Him. Expect Him to come, but do not expect

Him only in a certain way. However much we may know God, the great

lesson to learn is that at any minute He may break in. We are apt to

over look this element of surprise, yet God never works in any other

way. All of a sudden God meets the life - "When it was the good

pleasure of God. . ."

Keep your life so constant in its contact with God that His

surprising power may break out on the right hand and on the left.

Always be in a state of expectancy, and see that you leave room for

God to come in as He likes.

***With so much ahead of us, it would be really easy to calculate and assume how God will choose to show up.  Let's not do that.  Let's do our due diligence, work hard and pray hard, and let Him bless as He chooses.  He knows better anyway!

Who have you invested in today that will join us on March 6th?
