Who you become is determined by how you pray

Instead of dissecting Scripture, we need to let Scripture dissect us our thoughts and attitudes, our dreams and desires, our fears and hopes.

If the kingdom of God had departments, we’d want to work in research and development. We felt like Jesus didn’t hang out at the synagogue, he hung out at wells. Coffeehouses are postmodern wells. Let’s not wait for people to come to us, let’s go to them.

If you've never had a God-sized dream that scared you half to death, then you haven't really come to life. If you've never been overwhelmed by the impossibility of your plans, then your God is too small. If your vision isn't perplexingly impossible, then you need to expand the radiuses of your prayer circles.

Prayer is the inheritance we receive and the legacy we leave.

Life a life of Spiritual Adventure. Much like a wild goose the Spirit of God cannot be tracked or tamed. An element of danger, an air of unpredictability surround Him. And while the name may sound a little sacrilegious, I cannot think of a better description of what it's like to pursue the Spirit's leading through life.

If we repent, God always recycles our mistakes.

The day we stop dreaming is the day we start dying.

To me, growing into spiritual maturity is becoming less self-conscious and more God-conscious.
Mark Batterson
Image
Sometimes God leads us to a place where we have nowhere to turn but to Him our only option is to trust Him.
Mark Batterson
Image
Finally, I learned that we shouldn’t seek answers as much as we should seek God.

You are only one prayer away from a dream fulfilled, a promise kept, or a miracle performed.

Never underestimate the power of a single prayer.
