Things I Learned at the Beach

1.
Abraham.. The father of many nations... Was told that his descendants would be as numerous as the grains of sand. Sand is formed when rock is crushed. Jesus is our rock, and because he was crushed on calvary many might be saved.. Jew and Gentile added to the kingdom... More grains of sand...

2.
Imagine the days of Noah. It rained for 40 days and 40 nights. But what about on the other side of the world? Imagine not seeing the rain coming... But just looking up and seeing a giant wave of water coming to submerge you... You wouldn't have been able to see the gradual steps from dry, to raining, to flooded. It instantaneously would have gone from 0 to 10... God promised that He's
pouring out His Spirit... Some are praying and seeking His face... They are witnessing the rain... Others are in rebellion... But people are interceding for them... They will look up one day and see the flood waters...

3.
Stepping on the sand was weird at first. It was a big decline to get down to the beach area... And I would sink like 2 inches into the sand with every step.. It was scary lol... I didn't want to fall all the way down there... I assumed it was loose like that because it was wet, but when I got by the lake, the sand was packed much tighter by the water. That didn't make no sense to me and it still don't
physically... But the sand (God's people /Abraham's seed) was packed tighter the closer it was to the water (the purification agent)... So when the church is in active fellowship with Christ, relationships work better, communities are tighter, the body is more cohesive... The out pouring of God's Spirit shall grow and unify His body

Scripture of the day!

Joel 2:28 NLT

“Then, after doing all those things, I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your old men will dream dreams, and your young men will see visions.

Challenge:

Pray for the outpouring.
