Love, Lo

    ?

    I’m so tired right now, but it’s just one of those nights that I have to write.  It’s been a good day and a good weekend, so I just wanted to share some of the goodness of God.

    There’s this way that I love to prophesy and declare the goodness of God over my good friends.  I like to ask them questions like “Did you know that you are going to see nations saved in a day?” or “Did you know that heaven has crazy dance parties to the sweet beats you lay down?”

    I don’t remember the exact time I started to use these prophetic questions, but I do remember one that completely changed my life.  One time I was walking through what we call a “fire tunnel” at Bethel Church which is basically a really long tunnel of people laying hands on you, blessing you, and filling you with more of the presence of God.  It was before I went to Bethel, and I was just visiting, so most of the culture was new to me.

    After I exited the tunnel I was walking away, and this guy ran up to me with this super intense look on his face and said, “Do you realize you have a prophetic calling on your life?”  I was slightly freaked out but nodded my head yes, as I’d received words about this before.

    As much as it might have freaked me out in the moment, that prophetic question changed the course of my life, and has brought me on an adventure in the kingdom that has been far worth the prices I have paid and the years where it was difficult for me to see the goodness of God. 

    And I am still on that journey.  I discover more of His goodness every day.  As I align my thoughts with His, I find my days filled with unexpected redemption, breakthrough, and fun surprises…just because I am His.

    And today, the questions that I so familiarly ask others He began to ask me today.   And then He didn’t stop.  All day long he asked me if I knew the most beautiful things about myself. 

    I don’t tell you this to brag, I tell you this because I want you to experience it for yourself!  Ask God to ask you prophetic questions about yourself today.  Discover more of who you are in Him. Allow Him to ridiculously bless you.  And when you think you’ve had enough, please let Him speak more.
