Movements of God
are driven by an invisible force of His eternal power and divine nature. They are in a historical context. They are creative and life giving. They are redemptive and lead to
reconciliation. They are personal and
not just programs. They have eternal purpose and they will not fail.
How much of the
concern about the lack of people going to church is about the lost souls of the
people, rather than the loss of financial means to keep the church building
functional? The shepherd who left his 99
sheep to find the 1 lost one was concerned about the sheep itself, not his
reputation or his shepherding program.
Worship is not
entertainment; worship is not a social event; worship is not a program with
everyone well rehearsed and ready to do their part. Worship is about coming and being in God’s
Presence, individually and corporately.
God is the CEO; God is the program; God is the One speaking or is silent.
Movements of God
are in the souls of people; movements of God are wherever two or three are
gathered in His name; movements of God are breaking bread and sharing a meal
with one another; movements of God are loving and being kind to one
another. These movements don’t require
any revenue or have any overhead. These
movements will never fail.
