The Lord said to me just recently, that when you spend more time focused on the here and now you miss the eternal that is already right in front of you. We’re slipping further and further away from His desire and His ability to change our circumstances. Not because He wants to, but because we live here.

We just hang out here, instead of being in the water of the Word of God. We’re not being connected to the Holy Spirit the way that we should. We’re just like a plant. If I took a plant out of its water (the Word of God) and I just laid it up on the counter, it would be withered and dying by morning.

I’m wanting you and I’m wanting me to get into this place that the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead is with us everywhere we go. We have the ability and the privilege to draw upon Him any hour of any day.

God wants to be engaged and involved in our life. The Holy Spirit wants to be actively involved, changing, rearranging, making life beautiful for us. Making us victorious, why? Because this is what draws the lost to Him. It’s the goodness of God that a lost person sees that draws him to the Lord.

When the lost see that God is really good, and that things are changing well for us, they are drawn in. It’s that visual they see and can relate to that something was bad, and turned out really good for you. This is a testimony of who He is and how good He is. This draws them in and becomes like a magnet. So, what is God looking for? He is looking for all men to be saved and come to the knowledge of Jesus.

He’s looking for you to be that testimony. He’s looking for you to be that extension of who He is.
