Brazil 5/14/09

So I leave for Brazil tomorrow and I am super excited. My heart is missions, the are around 2 billion people around the world who have yet to hear the Gospel. 2 BILLION PEOPLE. That number of lost souls is currently on its way to hell there is no easy way to put it. I so desperately want to see they book of acts come to life in our day and time to see multitudes come to Christ when he is preached. To see the lame walk, the blind see, the mute speak is my desire and all of this bringing glory to our God, drawing people to him because of this. It can and will happen but only through faith. Its sad to see in our day and time a people who claim to love their risen Savior but yet have more faith in a gecko than they do in Jesus. People wonder sometime why we are not seeing miracles that often, my Friends its a matter of the heart.
A boy who was afflicted with epilepsy was brought to Jesus disciples once and was asked to heal the boy. After the disciples prayed and prayed and prayed they realized that he was not being healed, so they bring the boy to Jesus who scolds them, calling them faithless and twisted. Jesus then heals the boy no problem at all. They disciples later asked JC why they could not heal the young boy and he simply said, "Because of your little faith". (Matt 17:14-21) Jesus tells us in this passage that if we have faith the size of a mustard seed, we could move mountains. Think of what Christ could do through us if we faith the size of that very mountain He was speaking of, Jesus would use us to turn the world upside down. May we have faith in Jesus and not in a farm (state farm). May we move mountains and my our Faith be the size of mountains. "The city authorities shouted, These are the men who have turned the world upside down and have come here too" (Acts 17:6, emphasis added)
