“I desire more for you than how you are functioning now. Why won’t you move from the sidelines of logic, carnal wisdom, and business savvy and enter into My faith life? Human reasoning will always be shallow at best. Your worldly, logical counsel limits Me and My servants. I have given you much to do because you have asked to be a steward of much. I have brought those in need to you. Now you lord My resources over those I send your way.

"You are dabbling at the perimeter of My work, when I want you to be part of a mighty move and pour what I have given you into others. You work from a base of pride because of your position among people. In your own mind you have become important, but you are really doing little for Me compared to what I have in mind. You need to remember that you are going to answer to Me for what I have given you.

"Begin to pour My resources into My work with zeal. I desire that you become a limitless fountain, not a cask that can be emptied. I am waiting for you to submit fully to My plans. Discard your own ways. Break loose and move in faith. I desire to move through you in a mighty way, but I will be able to really use you only when you have My heart and you are functioning in My wisdom.”

II Chr. 16:9a AMP

For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth to show Himself strong in behalf of those whose hearts are blameless toward Him.

Ps. 111:10 AMP

The reverent fear and worship of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom and skill…; a good understanding, wisdom, and meaning have all those who do [the will of the Lord].

Luke 12:42-44, 48b NIV

42) The Lord answered, “Who then is the faithful and wise manager, whom the master puts in charge of his servants to give them their food allowance at the proper time?

43) It will be good for that servant whom the master finds doing so when he returns.

44) I tell you the truth, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.”

48b) “From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.”

Ja. 2:26 AMP

For as the human body apart from the spirit is lifeless, so faith apart from [its] works of obedience is also dead.

God is raising up a faith people who are moving in the wonder of Jesus and discarding the logic of the world. He is using those who have been with the Father enough to hear His heart and move only when He says to move. Human reason can only carry the work of the Lord as far as logic will allow it to go. Faith, combined with Godly vision and implemented by learned obedience, is limitless. In these coming times, those who wait on the Lord to hear His heart and then step out in faith will accomplish mighty works, as the prideful unknowingly reel in their helplessness.

Teach me Your ways, Lord,

“Never judge the amount of anointing that I have placed on any of My children based on the way they look. It is time for the pompous, arrogant ministers, who have misused My Word for their own gain, to be ignored for who they are. They pervert My Gospel and cause others to do the same. Slick talk and eloquent speeches never cause heartfelt changes in the lives of those who need to hear what I am saying.

"You are My vessels, a new breed of priests. You have bought gold refined in the fire and can no longer be tempted by the world and its ways. You have paid the price to know Me intimately. Because you have been in low, unassuming places and have often had a desperate need of Me, you now own what you are called to tell others. My Word is formed deeply in your heart. My Spirit is the director of your ways. The world may ignore you because you appear ordinary. Most of My church will discard you because you have little for them to admire, but I am about to do exceptional things through you. Quietly, calmly, you will minister My Word in dunamis power because of your humbled lives. Truth will come forth because of your obedience. I am pleased. Watch what I do through you.”

Ps. 51:6 AMP

Behold, you desire truth in the inner being; make me therefore to know wisdom in my inmost heart.

Hosea 4:6 AMP

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you [the priestly nation] have rejected knowledge…

Luke 11:52 AMP

Woe to you, lawyers (experts in the Mosaic Law)! For you have taken away the key to knowledge; you did not go in yourselves, and you hindered and prevented those who were entering.

Luke 12:1 NIV

Meanwhile, when a crowd of many thousands had gathered, so that they were trampling on one another, Jesus began to speak first to his disciples, saying: “Be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.”

I’ve often wondered what Jesus must think about all the tremendous opportunities the church has had to present the Gospel in this country, and what we’ve done with them. The end result of many years of the best facilities and communication tools is a “bless me” religion that is weak and powerless against our own sin and limited in presenting the true character of Jesus to a dying world. How did that happen?

No matter what has been, our Father is concerned about what is about to be. He is raising up a people who are tired of surface religion, finished with hypocrisy in their own lives, and desiring only truth. He is calling out those who have heard the call to holiness and have determined to glorify Him with their lives rather than simply present empty words and cold preaching to those who are dying. He is stirring up the spirits of those who can no longer be satisfied in remaining as they are. They covet the truth of God’s Word for their very being. He is calling for a holy people, ready to present the Word in truth.

Take me there, Lord,
