Do you get tired of politics in the ministry
 
I have been thinking about this as we were traveling today...Many times when I look over the lists of preachers in some line ups...Politics screem so loud it makes me sick...

I am praying for the day we can see a REAL move of the spirit without politics....

No wonder so many meetings are so dry and turn out to be fashion shows...How about some real tears...and people being moved to change their lives forever...

So who will be the church's equivalent of Mr Smith (Jimmy Stewart)?

Amen, Sis Alvear!

Politics have no place in Ministry!

Just last night my son said mother did you see a certain line up...I said my son I did...politics...politics....


I weep....


May God send us men...and women...that do not seek after a name or fame...but Holy People of God that will PUSH for a move of the Spirit...

I stood in front of a big hotel and observed people getting out of their cars and vans for a meeting of less than a week...I could not believe how much luggage...

They were not there to seek God....the luggage told the story...

I feel a deep burden tonight for a move of God like never before...I long for the day when nothing matters but God...His work...and His message...

While men try to build organizations and names...I am afraid the devil laughs at our fleshly folly...

We live in a day when everyone wants to start their own organization! I have said for a long time , someday something will happen and we will forget what color card we carry (if we do carry one) and then and only then will revival break out...
As long as we are building our personal babel tower...there will be no real move of the Holy Ghost...

I deeply yearn to see revival...Not some hyped up lot of noise but a sound from the glory world that shakes us in our shoes...takes our eyes off ourselves...
Habakkuk spoke about a time when the glory of the Lord would fill the earth...
