Kingdom Resources

I went to another prayer meeting tonight... one of the specific topics focused on the sale of property belonging to the church. There are very mixed feelings about the sale of the property - which is always to be expected when we encounter change. Our prayer echoed the Lord's Prayer... "Your kingdom come, Your will be done."

While we were praying, Holy Spirit began to speak to me about Kingdom Resources. In the coming days, the Last Days, the Church must align itself with God's Kingdom plans. Holy Spirit led me to pray that this property be recognized as a Kingdom Resource - and for God to raise up the steward He wanted to care for this resource.

I believe God wants to do away with competition between churches. If we begin to see our resources - buildings, worship teams, pastoral staff, even sheep - as belonging to the Kingdom - then we will be able to usher in the Kingdom of God.

I recently listened to a teaching by Graham Cooke and he spoke about giving his best leaders to struggling churches. He even split up the worship team and sent them to two different churches. God is changing their community because they are willing to embrace Kingdom plans - even when they fly in the face of tradition.

Daddy,

I ask You to help me to see things from Your Kingdom perspective. I repent for making my plans on Your behalf, instead of yielding myself to Your plans. Your Kingdom come, Lord, Your will be done.

Daddy's Girl
