Deer and God's Spirit

In a couple of days I have the privilege of traveling to Texas to hunt with a few friends. If you know anything about hunting, you know that Texas is famous for their Whitetailed deer – especially if you’re hunting in the Southwestern part of the state. There are very few places in the country that produce such quality deer herds. One thing most of them have in common is nutrition. Not only are there massive quantities of acorns from small scrub oaks, but the farmers plant bumper crops of corn, alfalfa, soybeans, and all sorts of other agriculture. So the land is prepared for the deer without any effort on their part…. All they really do is gorge on the feastings. When you look around this country of ours, there seems to be an outpouring of God’s Spirit in certain geographical areas. Out west, Rick Warren and Saddleback are going thru a huge time of revival. Down south, Ed Young Jr. Is experiencing a great move of God. In Atlanta, Andy Stanley and North Point Community church is going thru the same thing. And I haven’t mentioned Lifechurch.tv or the Village chuch, or Willowcreek, just to name a few…. So what’s the difference? I believe it’s the spiritual soil. Just like the farmers plant crops and till the soil, in these places, warriors are being strategically placed by God to pray, prepare, and make way for a mighty move of God… I know it works… it’s happening all over Mountain View Church right now. And I’m glad I’m a small part, aren’t you?
