I even get some…"you should stay in America we are going straight to hell…so help us instead"
So I am going to ask a question to you. Why not now? Why on earth would I just sit here working a 9-5 job when my Abba has put this on a plate for me to go? What is holding you back from doing something great? Nothing and no one. Only you. Sure…there is parts of your life as to where you need mentorship..you need to learn..before you go out…and do what your passionate about…to do what He has put before you…but are you even taking those steps?
Let me ask you…who are you living for?…Don't jump to an answer yet. Think about it…Because majority of us…we want to say …of couse I live for the King…but are actions and life does not reflect that answer…so it should be …I live for myself. And how selfish is that? Is He not worth living for? Is He not worth my life song?
And I will answer about MERCA…I will always be apart of MERCA..it is the place I grew up…my prayers are powerful and are heard…I don't need to be here to fight for this country…geography does not get in my way…And honestly right now in my life…my heart is broken for America, but it is not what I am passionate about…and that is okay…there are people who are so passionate about the American church and its people. That is just not where I am right now. Where I am…what my soul burns for…is something else…does that make my life any better than those who stay? No…but we are all different…and the only one who I need to look like is Jesus…not you…or you…or you…. just Jesus…and follow His heart…and what He lays before me…so I am going…I love good ol MERCA…but I also love all the Nations…so I have been given a chance to jump…so why not jump?
So I will answer "Why Guatemala…why now?"….I go back to what Johnathan Little said at Project searchlight…."I am not called to Guatemala, but I am called to the body of Christ."…I am not signing my life away to Guatemala. I will be back in good ol MERCA soon enough. I am called to the body of Christ there..and to advance what He is doing there…to poke at their souls and help them to find their groan in their souls and release that song! I am going there to seek out men…because it is time for men to be MEN.
See…like I have wrote a few times now in recent blogs…God is building something new…and He simply just asked me if I wanted to be apart of it. I could have said no…I could have took this amazing job back home..I could have lived an American dream…I could have enjoyed all the amazing things MERCA has to offer. But, I told my Abba, OF COURSE I WILL GO! I have no idea what is going to happen there since it is a Pioneer trip and we are just going off faith…with this common vision. And trusting God to move…as He will. I have no idea where my support is going to come from…but shoot I didn't know where I was going to raise $15500 for the WR and that came in from everywhere…from Him…He is the Provider!
This reminds of when Moses was at the Red Sea…He has done all that God has asked of Him…then He reaches the Red Sea and starts to worry and cry out. And what happens? God shows up. Parts the Red Sea and makes a path for Moses and those following Him and crushes the enemy.. God does not change…His character stays the same….He provides for those He calls….He makes a path for those who obey. Even when our silly flesh gets in the way…He still shows up in huge ways…
So here I am…I am at my Red Sea….I am waiting for Him to show up…through support…through providing a path in Guatemala…My brothers and sisters…I need you to help me out once again….help me reach Guatemala. Help me part this Red Sea. And I can honestly tell you….if you help by donating you will be apart of something great. So don't donate because of me…not even for the people of Guatemala…but for our Father…this vision of establishing Mobilization Centers across the globe is glorious! So much discipling …intercession…mentoring…and ulitmately sending people out to make disciples of all Nations! There is a huge chain reaction that is taking place…Kingdom is coming…life on earth is taking place…warriors are putting on their armor…we are going to the front lines…not with guns…but with the Armor of God…and our weapons are our worship to the King…and our intercession for each other. Join us! Through praying with us…and by donating…again I need to raise $4050 all together and if you want to know of other ways you can help please email me there is plenty that you can do to help! We want to leave on Feb 15 so lets get this ball rolling…lets part this dang sea!!! If you choose to donate you can just click the support me tab! Thanks so much for reading my blogs…of anything I hope these blogs…my journey with Christ…encourages you to jump…it is a scary thing…but it is so great at the same time! Because I know my Abba will show up..and it is so exciting to see how! And I dwell in His perfect love…which cast out all fear…so I choose to walk as fearless.
So I ask you….why not jump? Will you take that leap of faith today and get out of the comfort zones in your life?! Are you willing to come up to a Red Sea in your life…as to where you can't do anything…you have to rely soley on Him? Either He shows up or you fail? Can you trust Him that much? Jump!
