Prophetic Gear!

I dreamt of an explosion, then escaping the explosion by weather balloon. It was as if the explosion released the balloon. It moved fast unapologetically, making its upward rush. “To the sky and nowhere else,” it seemed to say, “with quickness!” I grabbed onto a long cable wire attached to the balloon. There was no harness, just pure holding on. And up I went.

As I quickly left the ground, a friend came and asked, ” What are you doing?” Hanging upside-down, holding onto the cable with my legs, I
yelled, “PROPHETIC GEAR!” Watching me quickly escalate into the air, he yelled back, “LEAN FORWARD!”

I then righted myself on the cable and leaned forward while holding on. It was difficult. Imagine a rope like that in a gymnasium only attached to something moving very fast a thousand feet off the ground.  Though it was challenging, and there was nothing securing me to the cable, I held on. I held on, and to the best of my ability I leaned forward…

Why Leaders Exist

My answer to the question is this: Leaders exist to create a shift in reality.

Without leaders, things drift along. They go where they want to go, following the path of least resistance. However, when this is not desirable—or acceptable—you hire, elect, appoint or become a leader. The leader’s job is to overcome resistance and make things flow in a different direction. His or her job is to create a different reality.

I like this article and I especially like the statement, “His or her job is to create a different reality.” It reminds me that our job as worshippers is to change the reality around us from that of this world to that of heaven. That God inhabits our praises. Yes, our job as worshippers is to usher in Jesus’ Kingdom into the here and now.
