Jesus is taking back
the Church He is building. He will remove it from the hands of frightened,
angry people to build it Himself. God is consuming the lives of those who will
give Him permission. Many just don’t get it. We have the final say. Make no mistake,
we decide the course of our lives. We make decisions every day that either lead
us to the many dreams He has for us, or lead us in a path of our own choosing. When Jesus is Lord,
in control of your home, your marriage, and your children, your world is
strengthened and empowered. When He is Lord of your emotions, your past, and
your memories, you are free to grow, and far more than you could possibly see
now. When Jesus is in control of the deep places where you need healing and
restoration, the joy of the Lord overflows your heart and life. Jesus wants to be
Lord in every aspect of our lives. We know what the word Lord means, and we
know how to get around that word. We’ve been getting around it all our
lives—rationalizing it, measuring it, analyzing it. But He wants us to allow
Him to take control completely out of our hands and place it "Completely in His hands so that it is out of our control so that moment by moment we may be moved by the wind of His spirit.
