In The Momment

The Holy Spirit spoke this phrase to me some months ago which signaled a transition in my walk.

"In The Moment".

I was on my way to a healing room where I lead an hour of intercessory worship devoted to bringing us into the presence of Jesus before we minister to the public. We make room for God to break in however He sees is necessary in order to draw us close to Himself, equip us for the ministry to follow.

On the way, for nearly two years, the Lord would give me a vision which gave direction for the tone or focus of the worship/prayer time. I looked forward each week to receiving my "orders".

One night, while on the way, the picture did not come, I was near the healing room. I asked the Lord why He was not giving me a picture?

Then the phrase "In the moment" came. I questioned, "In the moment? What does that mean Lord?". He was quiet. Well, I figured I would find out.

I won't go into all the details, but that night was different, one I will never forget. Powerful.

God was teaching me, and the rest of us to follow His lead, in the moment.

Read Romans 8.

Through a number of God driven experiences, I have learned to be ready, available to move on an impression, vision, unction in the market place.

I've made mistakes, was humbled and felt foolish at times on the way to becoming more confident and bold in the Market Place.

God has blessed me for having taken risks.

If you move out on an impression, and it is not received, bless the person you approached.

Continue to press into what you know God has stirred you to do, have your net ready to cast it out into the water the next time God gives you the unction to do so. If you go in love, focused on the individual God is trying to reach, good will follow.

Romans 10:14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15 And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"

John 14:12 "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father".
