Woow been in out of comfortable naps since 1:00 a.m..Its now 4:00 a.m.I have been thinking and praying.. Pastor Barber said last night at Bible Study if God has a calling on your life you will get no sleep tonight..Jesus..I was thinking God always have me up between these hours but this wee hours this morning feels different..I tried to go to sleep but I couldnt tossed and turned. .Rolled out of bed and this came out.. VISION + MISSION=CALLING. I opened up my D.A. notebook where I wrote my notes and God already had me write my VISION 9 months ago..O, God now this just hit me when a woman is pregnant she birth the baby in 9 months..When God have a gift inside you , you have to BIRTH that gift out....JESUS... its 10 months im OVERDUE..MY GOD..MY GOD...HE SAID OUTREACH...God you already gave me my tools im praying for you to move my feet and have my VISION come to pass..Everything is in your timing...In Jesus Name I pray..Amen.. Habakkuk 2:1-4 KJV I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. [2] And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. [3] For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. [4] Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.. **Then God said OUTREACH and gave me this scripture:JESUS.. Romans 12:1-12 KJV I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. [2] And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. [3] For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. [4] For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: [5] So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. [6] Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith; [7] Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching; [8] Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness. [9] Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. [10] Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; [11] Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; [12] Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer **BIBLE MESSAGE** Romans 12 Place Your Life Before God 1-2 So heres what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Dont become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. Youll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you.3Im speaking to you out of deep gratitude for all that God has given me, and especially as I have responsibilities in relation to you. Living then, as every one of you does, in pure grace, its important that you not misinterpret yourselves as people who are bringing this goodness to God. No, God brings it all to you. The only accurate way to understand ourselves is by what God is and by what he does for us, not by what we are and what we do for him.4-6In this way we are like the various parts of a human body. Each part gets its meaning from the body as a whole, not the other way around. The body were talking about is Christs body of chosen people. Each of us finds our meaning and function as a part of his body. But as a chopped-off finger or cut-off toe we wouldnt amount to much, would we? So since we find ourselves fashioned into all these excellently formed and marvelously functioning parts in Christs body, lets just go ahead and be what we were made to be, without enviously or pridefully comparing ourselves with each other, or trying to be something we arent.6-8If you preach, just preach Gods Message, nothing else; if you help, just help, dont take over; if you teach, stick to your teaching; if you give encouraging guidance, be careful that you dont get bossy; if youre put in charge, dont manipulate; if youre called to give aid to people in distress, keep your eyes open and be quick to respond; if you work with the disadvantaged, dont let yourself get irritated with them or depressed by them. Keep a smile on your face.9-10Love from the center of who you are; dont fake it. Run for dear life from evil; hold on for dear life to good. Be good friends who love deeply; practice playing second fiddle.11-13Dont burn out; keep yourselves fueled and aflame. Be alert servants of the Master, cheerfully expectant. Dont quit in hard times; pray all the harder. Help needy Christians; be inventive in hospitality.14-16Bless your enemies; no cursing under your breath. Laugh with your happy friends when theyre happy; share tears when theyre down. Get along with each other; dont be stuck-up. Make friends with nobodies; dont be the great somebody THANK YOU JESUS!!
