A blog about yesterday. :P

So, yesterday I went to Burning Man Ministries because they were having a speaker from Austin coming down. Before the meeting I went through this old notebook, that had some notes from the Florida outpouring, and I wanted to go over some of the words & teachings I had received.

When opened the book, the first words I read were: Street evangelist, words of knowledge, more passion for leading worship, and rivers of living water.

I really asked God, "How come this 'passion' hasn't come yet? How come I don't have it?" & I felt Him say, "Because religion has gotten in the way." I didn't realize that I had actually stopped the Spirit from moving inside of me during worship because I was so focused on the "list" that the worship leader had given us. I didn't want to mess up..

So I went back inside & the meeting started, but before we all worshiped, the speaker went up there and spoke about a few things that the Spirit was moving on. He talked about "Self-Crucifixion", a word I had not heard in a very long time. He said, "It's NOT about you, It's all about Him." "We need to put on our 'Ephesians spiritual uniform' everyday". God started reminding me of what He had told me outside and I felt the Spirit stirring things up.

Towards the end of worship, the speaker, Ramon Perez, went around the room praying for everyone individually & when he came up to me I told him I needed prayer for patience. So as he was praying I felt like this anger or some bitterness had built up in me for a while..and I just needed to let it go because it was tying my soul down. Then he went on to say that I had the gift of praise inside of me & I was made to sing, which kind of confirmed what God was telling me earlier. It was awesome to hear because not only did it encourage me to go farther but it made me realize a gift that I had hidden deep inside. God is GREAT! <3
