No Comfort Allowed! February 13, 2010

Filed under: Uncategorized — karendhagan @ 7:49 am

I love the kind of feedback I got from this simple thought…The thought?

It’s amazing how controlling “comfortable” is.  She’s vicious and will keep you just short of destiny!

Who has a comfortable couch or chair in their TV room or living room…One that everyone fights over?  We do!  Everyone races for that one place and then yells “seat check” if they have to get up so they don’t lose their spot!  Ridiculous!  They’re always fighting for this special spot…then once the battles over and the territory has been taken captive….it seems that the victor almost simultaneously becomes drowsy and falls asleep the moment their head hits the pillow. That comfort hits like a fog bank. It’s been an incredible journey we have taken this last month, and I admit I haven’t been there this past week to hear the testimonies of what God has done in your lives.  What I have heard has been absolutely miraculous.  God has moved and shaken us to the core of our being.

From this point….we can’t settle for the fog bank of comfort.  We must continue to press in.  The tendency can be to relax a bit. God may have talked to you about some areas in your life, revealed places of lack, answered some key questions, or asked something of you.  Whatever the case, it takes tremendous humility, and courage to walk out what He’s asked of you.

Divine order precedes revealed glory!   I truly believe we as a church have begun to get things in order in our lives.  Which prepares the way for God’s Glory to be revealed in and through our lives.  So I can’t settle for comfortable!   I want REVEALED GLORY!!  Don’t let your passion for His presence die.  Don’t grow complacent or get busy with “religious stuff”  Let’s go for the Revealed Glory of God!!  Comfort??  NO THANKS!  God’s presence and His Glory??  YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!
