I Can Smell It

“God is changing the church, and that, in turn, will change the world. Millions of Christians around the world are aware of an imminent reformation of global proportions. They are saying in effect: ‘Church as we know it is preventing church as God wants it.’ Amazingly, many are hearing God say the same thing to them.” --Wolfgang Simson (Houses That Change the World).

Something at this church is about to explode. I can smell it. And, I am excited about it! Church, as we know it, is about to change.

Maybe Not Asia

Paul was on a roll. He was leading people to Christ and starting churches left and right. It only made sense to keep going a certain direction and go into Asia. On his way, the angel of the Lord withstood him. He did not allow him to go the way he wanted or the way that made the most sense. Instead, God needed him to go to Macedonia.

Sometimes, common sense is not God sense. What are some times in your life when you had to choose between Common Sense and God Sense?

How have His mercies been new to you today or this week?
