The Lord is my strength and song,
and He is become my salvation;
He is my God, and I will prepare
Him a habitation; my father's God,
and I will exalt Him.
Exodus 15:2
I believe the Lord has a sense of humor, and so do I...
and He is become my salvation;
He is my God, and I will prepare
Him a habitation; my father's God,
and I will exalt Him.
Exodus 15:2
I believe the Lord has a sense of humor, and so do I...
Honestly, I am not being sarcastic here. I'm even laughing as I write this. But I am now experiencing a degree of freedom which I've not had in a handful of years.
As I wrote in yesterday's journal, I have been released from the bondage of being the church's worship leader and inmate pastor. Of course, I may have to return to one or both of these positions some day. But, for now, I can say with gladness, "Thank the Almighty God, I'm free at last!"
It's a new beginning for me. I believe, as well, that little by little, the Lord is going to take me to heights I have never been before. Correspondingly, however, at the same time there will be many trials, temptations and battles to face. I won't be floating on a cloud, that's for sure. But it will be, for me, a season to march forward in the strength and power of the Holy Spirit.
In addition, I now hereby declare myself free from the bondages and restrictions of well-meaning men whom, while I love them deeply, do not understand the vision I have. They are God-fearing men who love Jesus Christ. Yet, they cannot at this time grasp the understanding of the calling God has upon my life. But it's okay. In time, they will understand.
