I have no plans.
it may seem foolish,
it may seem hopeless,
it may seem idiotic,
it may seem like a straight up odd thing to say,
but there's a method to the madness.
Let me propose something to you.
Let me propose that ONE day you abandoned every single plan you made, and allowed your entire day to be dedicated to following wherever the Holy Spirit led you.
What if you dared to go wherever He went and to do WHATEVER He did?
Let me just give you a glimpse into what can happen when you live this way…because this is literally my life right now, and it is crazy awesome…
Teams Hebron and Mashach went into the town of San Marcos a couple of days ago, not having much of an agenda except to follow wherever the Lord led us.
[Just to give you some background, San Marcos is a village nearby that is still very much involved in the Mayan culture. There's a lot of black magic, witchcraft, witch doctors, and the like around. The population is somewhere between 10,000 and 12,000 people. Only 33 people in the whole town attend church. That means about 0.05% of the people are followers of Christ.]
The result of following the Spirit that day?
We saw one young woman give her life to Christ.
We saw her 15-day-old baby boy released from a rebellious spirit, which was causing him to sleep heavily all day, every day, and then cry horribly ALL night, EVERY night. He hadn't opened his eyes once during the day since he had been born. After a lot of prayer and casting out evil spirits in the name of Jesus, that little boy woke up and opened his eyes!
We saw a middle-aged man, who had been bound to alcoholism, FREED and accept Christ as his Savior.
And the following day, in San Pedro (our home for the month), we saw a woman healed of nerve pain, which had be shooting down her left leg into her foot for days, if not weeks or months.
So, my point is…
abandon your own agenda.
Position your heart towards the Father each morning and ask Him, "What do you have for me TODAY, Lord?" (Acts 22:10), and say "YES!" and "AMEN!" to each response He gives.
When you do, the Lord manifests and reveals Himself in ways you never imagined, and miracles happen. Freedom happens because you bring the Spirit with you wherever you go. And where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is FREEDOM (2 Corinthians 3:17)!
