BUT WHEN THE DREAM ENDS…..
“Everything’s going really well right now.
Am I happy about it?
Not really.
It makes me nervous when things go well.
It’s a set-up for disappointment.
Just when I begin to feel secure, Bam! The dream ends.
I’m back in the valley of despair
No, it doesn’t pay to relax!
It’s better to stay cynical, than be caught by surprise.”
To avoid disappointment you lock yourself in a prison of anxiety?
Anxiety:
The fear that tomorrow will not be safe.
The fear that your “dream” will be shattered.
The fear that “Something’s going to happen.”
You’re afraid to live by faith?
Faith:
Trust that God knows and loves you.
Trust that he will keep his word.
Trust that he is in control.
“As long as I walk in the light, I’m in God’s hands.“
But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O men of little faith?
Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek all these things; and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be yours as well.
Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Let the day’s on trouble be sufficient for the day.
Matthew 6:30-34
Prayer: Loving, caring Lord, you exhort us not to be anxious about anything, anything…that includes a scary future. Help us to let go of the anxiety we cling to over what’s going to happen next. Free us from the prison of anxiety that our lack of faith locks us into. Help us not to worry at all about any dream ending, our hopes for the future being dashed. Lord, we trust you, we know you love us, we know you’re in control. Instead help us to rejoice in your goodness, to bask in your presence, and to be thankful …no matter what. And when we are tested and tried, keep us gentle, loving, considerate, forbearing… constantly seeking and walking in your light, in your will. We know when we do this you will replace our anxiety with a peace beyond understanding and we can enjoy the good things you have for us today and will never have to worry about any dream ending. Amen.

WHAT’S HAPPENED TO OUR CHRISTIAN COUNTRY?
Christian country? Get real.
There has never been such a thing, nor will there ever be until Jesus returns.
Our job is not to make our country Christian.
Our job is to make disciples—of all nations.
To be witness to Jesus as Lord in a world which doesn’t have a clue about him.
To live in this pagan world as sons and daughters of God’s kingdom.
To bring….
good news to the poor,
deliverance to the captives,
sight to the blind,
freedom to the oppressed,
hope to all who will listen.
The Ten Commandments may be stripped from the walls of every court house in the land. Surprised?
These commandments have long since vanished
from the lives of those who claim to revere them.
The Lord’s Prayer may be silenced in every school. Shocked?
This prayer has long since lost its welcome
in the hearts of those who pay it lip service.
There is no better contribution we can make to our country than to see to it that WE obey the Ten Commandments, as Jesus interprets them in Matthew 5.
There is no better contribution we can give to our land than to make sure that WE pray the Lord’s Prayer with contrite hearts.
“It’s time for judgment to begin with God’s own household.”
I Peter 4:17
Prayer: Yes Lord, help us to look to our own hearts. Make each of us Christ-like, truly living as people of your Way so we can do the work you call each of us to. Help us to stop relying on leaders, laws, programs, and institutions…including churches to fix the broken lives of this clueless, twisted generation. Give us the faith, the courage, and the vision to see that you are as powerful amid pagan, godless systems as any so-called Christian land. Help us to reach out and touch people individually, personally to their cores with your holiness…. empowered by your Spirit. Fill us with compassion and love for the lost instead of criticism and repulsion. Help us to see that they are not hopeless, they are not loveless, they are not worthless. They are beloved by you. Oh Lord, bring healing to them, draw them close to you…nurturing a desire, a burning fire within them to become your disciples as well…. and together we will live as bright lights, as sons and daughters of your Kingdom wherever you place us…. even in the midst of great darkness. Amen.

DESENSITIZED TO LIES
I used to get upset when a politician lied.
Can’t people see? How does he get away with it?
But now I say to myself, “As long as he keeps the economy going and pushes our agenda, let him lie his way to victory. The main thing is results.”
After all, lies are just part of life here in the real world.
Hold on!
Not so fast!
Yes, we’re living in the real world.
But the minute we choose to be part of God’s world….
…lies become toxic.
Speaking the truth, living the truth is not an option;
It’s a command!
Pilate said to him, “So you are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. For this I was born, and for this I have come into the world, to bear witness to the truth. Every one who is of the truth hears my voice.” (John 18)
If we hear his voice….
We watch what comes out of our mouth.
We are wary of people who twist the truth and deceive.
We never forget where lies come from.
Why do you not understand what I say? It is because you cannot bear to hear my word. You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies. But, because I tell the truth, you do not believe me. (John 8:43-45)
Jesus lived in the same “real world” we’re living in.
He moved easily among tax collectors and sinners and prostitutes.
He connected with people where they were, as they were.
But Jesus never compromised the truth.
He never made deals with the Lie to accomplish his ends.
Neither do we, if we belong to him.
Prayer: Lord, Father of truth, we cannot desensitize ourselves to lies and radiate with your light. Make lies toxic to us…. because you have no part in lies and they separate us from you. Open our eyes to the darkness we choose when we sweep lies under the rug, when we compromise with the deceiver to justify the ends we desire, even righteous ends. Forgive us for turning away from you, for not trusting you. We want to continue to belong to you. Help us to recognize your voice calling us back from the liar who with his lies pours chaos, retaliation, mercilessness, and malice into our hearts. Help us to trust in your truth, to radiate with your light, to experience your peace, and to carry your mercy to the broken once again.. Amen.

WHAT DID YOU EXPECT?
One thing seems to characterize increasing numbers of believers and seekers:
Disappointment
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, and see, the new has come!” (2 Corinthians 5)
So where is this “new creation”?
Most people who claim to be “in Christ” live lives that are indistinguishable from those of unbelievers.
“Now as we have many parts in one body, and all the parts do not have the same function, in the same way we who are many are one body in Christ and individually members of one another. (Romans 12)
One body?
Why the churches we visit seem more like spiritual supermarkets rather than families of faith. Take your goodies, pay the cashier, and take off!
You expected to see what the scriptures promised?
Then look where the scriptures point.
Begin, not with man, but with God.
“Rest in God alone, my soul, for my hope comes from him..” (Psalm 62:5)
Never mind if you can’t seem to find believers who are clearly “new creations.”
Start with yourself. Seek the Lord Jesus.
Join yourself to him.
Never mind if the churches you “checked out” never seem to function as one body.
Ask the Spirit to guide you to the church where he wants you to be, insignificant as it may appear.
Join your heart to these people, and you will experience the Body of Christ.
And in that fellowship the Lord Jesus will transform YOU into a new creation.
….Then we will no longer be little children, tossed by the waves and blown around by every wind of teaching, by human cunning with cleverness in the techniques of deceit. But speaking the truth in love, let us grow in every way into him who is the head — Christ. From him the whole body, fitted and knit together by every supporting ligament, promotes the growth of the body for building itself up in love by the proper working of each individual part. (Ephesians 4:14-16)
Prayer: Lord when we feel critical and disappointed in those who claim you on this earth, help us to stop looking at them and to look at you instead, to truly seek you. Join us to you, so our expectations won’t be dashed. Help us to look to you for what we need. Guide us to the place where you want us to be. And help us to open our hearts to that Body, yes to truly join our hearts to them, as we grow together in our love and service to you. Transform us into new creations as we accept them and love them. And instead of being disappointed and critical of them …. We allow and expect you and only you to transform them into new creations as well. Amen.

WHEN DISTRACTIONS TAKE OVER….ONE THING IS NEEDFUL
“Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things;
one thing is needful.” (Luke 10)
Before you jump to Martha’s defense, understand that Jesus is not just talking to Martha.
He’s talking to you!
He’s talking to me!
He’s talking to anyone who is seeking the Kingdom of God.
Half our life is spent dealing with distractions.
Interruptions.
Thoughtless things that people do to complicate our days.
Folks who talk but never listen.
It’s a wonder we get anything done!
No wonder we are “anxious and troubled about many things”!
Yet Jesus gives us no sympathy.
Because all this stuff that ties us in knots has nothing to do with “the one thing needful”.
Once the “one thing needful” is no longer our focus, distractions take over.
The one thing needful.
The one thing needful is Words from the mouth of Jesus.
If his Word is alive in us, we can handle anything.
If his Word is alive in us, we are already in the kingdom of God.
If his Word is alive in us, we can plow through those distractions without losing our focus.
“This is my beloved Son in whom I am well-pleased.
Listen to him!”
Martha’s problem and ours.
We become so swamped in “Christian Service”… that we never get around to listening to the voice of the Master!
We become so saturated in Christian doctrine… that the voice of the Lord Jesus is no longer heard.
Our Christian ministries, and Christian programs, and Christian enterprises, and Christian values are nothing but distractions…. if the voice of the Lord Jesus is lost in all the Christian confusion.
“Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things;
one thing is needful.”
Lord Jesus, give us ears to hear your rebuke until we focus daily on the “one thing needful”.
Prayer: Yes Lord, give us ears to hear your rebuke. We are anxious and troubled about many things. We do tend to allow our Christian service and our Christian values to tie us in such knots that we forget you. Help us to come back to you daily, to quiet ourselves, and listen to you. And yes, may your Word come so alive in us that distractions have no power to take over our thoughts and lives. Oh Lord, keep us seeking and desiring the one needful thing, bringing your presence, your guidance, your words, your goodness, your redemptive power…. into our hearts and every sphere of our lives. Amen

“LORD, LORD!”
When she cried, “Lord, Lord!” he lifted her out of her desolation.
When he shouted, “Lord, Lord!” his praises rose up to heaven.
This man cried, “Lord, Lord!” as he stood at the gates of Paradise.
But nothing happened.
The gates remained shut.
Whenever we say, “Lord, Lord!”….
Whenever we call on Jesus’ name….
….He searches our hearts to see what we mean.
As he drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging; and hearing a multitude going by, he inquired what this meant. They told him, “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.” And he cried, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” (Luke 18)
It was a cry of faith.
Jesus opened his eyes!
And his disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away, for she is crying after us.” He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” But she came and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, help me.” (Matthew 15)
She was a Gentile.
But Jesus was her Lord.
Her daughter was healed.
When we call him “Lord”, we need to remember who we’re talking to.
The Lord’s name is not a ticket to Paradise.
The Lord’s name does not bring an automatic answer to prayer.
The Lord’s name is as holy as his shed blood.
The Lord’s name is a consuming fire.
“Not every one who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, `I never knew you; depart from me, you evildoers.’” (Matthew 7)
Prayer: Lord, as we call to you…help us not to take your name lightly. Help us not to use you as a means to get what we want, or to use your name as a magic formula to tack on the end of our prayers to make them official and effective. Lord, give us hearts in which our cries for you are authentic. When we cry “Lord, Lord” may it be because we are calling you into situations in which we are powerless, in which only your hand, only your mercy will bring healing and light. In which we unite our hearts with yours as we cry out in need. In which you know us and we know you. In which we are bowed before your holiness, your omnipotence, your mercy, your perfection, your will, and your goodness. Amen.

MORE THAN WE CAN ASK OR THINK
It’s not that we expect too much of God,
It’s that we expect much too little.
We’re afraid of disappointment.
We “don’t want to be presumptuous.”
The truth is, we’re afraid to believe his unambiguous promise.
“I am the light of the world; he who follows me will not walk in darkness but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12)
“Therefore, if any one is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, behold the new has come.” (2 Cor 5:17)
Forget about believing Jesus’ promises about the future if you’re unwilling to take seriously his promises about the here and now.
If any one is in Christ he is a new creation—now, today.
The old has passed away, the new is already here.
Question: Are you allowing this to happen in your life?
I am a new creation when I am filled with “the light of life” which Jesus promised.
I am a new creation when the Spirit of God rules my heart in place of my old sin-sick ego.
I am a new creation when the living God is able to accomplish his redemptive will through me, here on earth.
I am a new creation when I am crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.
I am a new creation when the life I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God who loved me, gave himself for me, and now lives in me.
Ask, and it will be given you. Seek and you will find.
Matthew 7:7
Prayer: Father, we ask that we do receive all that you have for us now. We seek to have the life you call us to now, in this world. Help us to rise up as new creations today. May we have the vision, the faith to know that you are real, close to us, and ready to truly cleanse and pour heaven into us now. Fill us with the light of life, rule our hearts with your tender love and compassion, may your redemptive will flow through us …so we may live in the power of your presence each new day as the new creations you call us to be. Amen.

IF GOD IS OMNIPOTENT, WHY DOES HE ALLOW IT?
If God is omnipotent, why does he allow it?
Deceivers prosper.
The mean-spirited hold sway.
The innocent suffer.
The powerless are exploited.
Is there no justice in the universe?
When will the evildoers be called to account?
The Good News:
There is justice in the universe.
Every wrong will be paid for and righted.
The exploited and abused of all time will have their day.
And there is also mercy.
The God of the universe has taken on himself our guilt.
He has redeemed us at the price of his own suffering….
…if we will but receive his mercy and live in it.
All we like sheep have gone astray. We have turned very one to his own way, And the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. Isaiah 53:6
You were predestined to salvation.
You are given the gift of free will….
….to receive it and walk in it,
…or to reject it.
Surely he has borne our sicknesses And carried our pains….Yet he bore the sin of many, And made intercession for the transgressors.
Isaiah 53:4 &12
Prayer: Thank you Lord that there is justice in the universe. Thank you that every injustice will be righted. Thank you for bearing our sickness and carrying our pains…and for bringing us true peace in the midst of crisis and sorrow. Lord, we also thank that there is mercy in the universe, so much mercy. Thank you for offering mercy to us in the sight of the injustices we ourselves have committed. Help us to accept and live in the mercy that you suffered so much to bring us. Thank you for your intercession and your offering which brings us life and the ability to stand before the Holy of Holies …clean without spot. We open ourselves even now to draw close and be covered by your mercy and love. Amen.

BE STILL
AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD
“Be still, and know that I am God.
I am exalted among the nations,
I am exalted in the earth!”
The LORD of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge.
Psalm 46
Those who are unaware of God have good reason to panic.
Nothing is stable.
Nothing makes sense.
Fires of conflict are smoldering across the earth.
But if we follow the Lord, our focus is clear.
The nations rage, the kingdoms totter;
he utters his voice, the earth melts.
The LORD of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge.
Psalm 46
There is only one King.
There is only one Lord.
There is only one God.
And there is only one path that makes sense.
This path not only leads to glory, it is glory!
This path begins where our fretting ends.
Be still, and know that I am God.
Prayer: Yes, loving Father…our king, our Lord, our God…as the nations rage, as things spin out of control…. help us not to spin out of control with them, help us to find your peace. May our faith stay strong because the outcome is in your hands, and you have promised to be with us, to be our refuge. What a gift this is, may we not squander it. Help us to still ourselves to the point where we don’t even need to ask for help, where we can stop quaking and fretting because we know you, we trust you. Help us to continue choosing the path of seeking your presence, where everything else melts away in the truth of your eternal holiness and unfathomable love for us, where we dwell in your glory, where we find joy, true joy even in the midst of terror and sorrow Amen.

HARDBALL POLITICS AND SOFTBALL FAITH
The Lord said unto my Lord, “Sit thou at my right hand until I make thine enemies thy footstool. Psalm 110
As the Messiah sits at the right hand of glory and watches us fighting to restore Christian Values, he must shake his head in wonder.
The anger, the screams, the shouts.
Our zeal is unmistakable.
It’s a modern Christian Crusade.
We really know how to play hardball, and we’re definitely shaking things up.
“But what about your faith?” says the Master.
“What happened to the hardball?
You’re into softball now?
You sing and pray and praise God.
You give me a seat of honor and then forget me as your Crusade proceeds.”
But the focus on the Kingdom is softened.
God knows how to play hardball too.
It’s called judgment.
When God judges, he starts with the household of faith, with us Christians.
He calls us to account.
He calls our crusades to account.
His revealing light exposes our hearts.
How can we restore the world around us, when our hearts are tainted with malice, anger, suspicion and pride?
How can we proclaim the kingdom of God when we are so deeply enmeshed in the dubious tactics of this world?
Heaven’s call to repent is now visiting the earth with burning urgency.
And that call to repent is coming first to us.
How could we clean up this messy world…
… until our own hearts are restored to child-like faith?
Create in me a clean heart, O God! And renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence, And take not thy Holy Spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, And uphold me with thy free Spirit. Psalm 51
Prayer: Lord, have mercy on us, forgive us for wanting Christian values so badly that we stop living like Christians. Forgive us for crusading, for taking up the sword instead of the cross. Help us to trust you, to step away from hardball politics and softball faith, and instead trust in you to defeat the evil one… while we sit at your right hand, in your presence. We do admit our hearts are tainted with malice, anger, suspicion, and pride. These are not of you; with them we can’t sit in your presence. Rescue us from them. Restore our childlike faith and trust in you. Create in us clean hearts, renew a right spirit within us, keep us in your presence… filled with your Holy Spirit, uphold us, and restore us with the joy of your salvation again Amen.

THE MISSING INGREDIENT
Why is God holding out on us?
We’ve been praying up a storm.
We’ve been looking up in expectation.
What more are we supposed to do?
Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”
Matthew 18
If two of you agree.
Where two or three are gathered in my name.
The missing ingredient in our corporate prayers:
Unity around Jesus.
Around his Name.
All barriers removed.
A spirit of repentance.
Until there is genuine unity among us—
—around Jesus alone—
—we are powerless—
Prayer: Oh Lord, bring us again to the missing ingredient in our prayers, to the missing ingredient in our hearts, to the missing ingredient among us…unity, genuine unity between us…. and genuine unity around you. We repent of the barriers we have put up that make us weak and powerless. Come into our midst, let us experience your loving presence as one again, and empower us to bring your healing to those in need. Amen.

YOU MEAN I’M NOT THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE?
Infants take it for granted.
Spoiled brats drag it a step farther.
Adolescents do their best to keep the illusion alive.
But when we grow up it’s time to face the shocking truth:
I am not the center of the universe.
Many people know this intellectually.
But in their hearts they cannot accept it.
Why shouldn’t things go my way?
I’m a decent human being!
I have rights!
Every disappointment, every setback, every devastating blast that invades my “space,” is a sign pointing to…
…the One who is in fact…. the Center of the Universe:
Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. (Psalm 90)
Our Lord Jesus taught us a prayer that puts us in touch with the Center of the Universe, even while it helps us to assume our proper place on this troubled planet.
Pray it.
Live it.
And the Spirit of God will deliver you from all illusions.
Our Father, who art in heaven. Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven…...
Prayer: Our Father in heaven, Lord, we turn our hearts to you, the center of the universe, the creator, the eternal and infinite one. Help us to be still and focus all we have on your real, holy omnipresence. Help us to open this most wondrous gift, that you the everlasting one can be our dwelling place. Help us to let go of our self-focus, our finite concerns, thoughts and opinions. Help us to release them, to release the cares of this world, to release the cycle of bad news, to release concerns about the future…so that we can dwell with you, embrace you, hallow you, love you with all that we have. Help us to trust you with our finite, troubled lives and our finite troubled world. And in the midst of our lives on this earth, may we continue to seek your kingdom and to bring your heavenly divine will into our own hearts and lives and into the lives around us. Amen.
