Incredibles

Incredible means too extraordinary and improbable to be believed. How many of us ever dreamed of being a super hero with all these awesome super powers? We would grab a sheet or pillow case and make it a cape and pretend we are a super hero. The incredible is inside of each of us, tapping into that is our weakness. Ordinary moves to extraordinary when you commit to a cause that is greater than yourself and demands the supernatural hand of Almighty God to help you to get it accomplished. The key is to have a willing and committed heart. I desire to rescue people, and then lead people into a genuine and contagious walk with Christ. That is what every believer should be striving for. I'm tired of the ordinary. Tired of the mundane, tired of the possible, tired of low expectations, tired of quitters, or just do your best speeches. God has called us to do extraordinary things in our lives for him. We all have a destiny through God. We as believers have a common enemy and that is the devil. The devil is not afraid of you. He is afraid of the Spirit of God that is in YOU! The devil is afraid of people who so desire to do the incredible that they will pay any price to experience it! You have to be willing to do the incredible. I'm ready for change. A phrase that is said by a wise man, 'If I change then everything changes.' Think about it. If you take a look at you and make changes for the better for God then God is going to do incredible things through you.  I'm ready for the supernatural to takeover, to believe in the impossible. It's through God all things are possible. I'm ready to put my faith, all my confidence in God and let him use me in ways I've never dreamed.

We need a generation of Christians to stand up and declare to the world, their flesh and the devil that "no you will not get me." I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me. That is a promise from God right their. Some examples is we need some Joseph's (Book of Genesis) who will run away form the offer of fornication and adultery. While losing his coat he never lost his character. Joseph was a man of integrity. To be incredible we need integrity and character. The Church needs some Caleb's and Joshua's (Book of Joshua) that will stand in as the minority and say, "We can possess the land God has given us." He was pre-destined to win every battle to possess the land that was promised to him. All he had to do was follow God's instructions and follow him. We need some David's who will declare that no you will not have your liberty with my life nor the lives of my family. He chased down a lion while the sheep was yet  in his mouth and grabbed him by the beard and smote him.  He endured Goliath and struck him down with a rock and cut off his head with his own sword. We get hit every Sunday, every Wednesday by the word of God but are we really "decreasing so he can increase?" (John 3:30)

We need to be living out the incredible. Our churches are our spiritual families. We are the Body of the Lord Jesus Christ. We together make up the one body. Isaiah 1:17 "Learn to do good. Seek justice. Help the oppressed. Defend the cause of orphans. Fight for the rights of widows. We are to fight against sin. Fight for the people in our churches, in our schools, in our communities and under our influence. We have so many children, students, people who have been spiritually abandoned by their world, their church and their culture. Love the unlovable. Encourage the discouraged. Inspire the passionless.

2 Kings 18:5-7 states that Hezekiah trusted in the Lord. He remained faithful to the Lord in everything, and he carefully obeyed all the commands the Lord had given Moses. The Lord was with him. Hezekiah was successful in everything he did. EVERYTHING! Pledged himself to God. We are to pledge ourselves to God also. You want to be incredible, you want to change the world, you want to do something great for God? Pledge yourself to him. Be committed to Christ. Follow after him. All it takes is living our lives for God and following his word. His word is full of promises for us. We can overcome the enemy, we can do all things through Christ.

Through out the bible many people had incredible stories of doing incredible things through God. What's your story? What has God done through you that was incredible? Peter walked on water. Gideon defeated thousands with only 300 men. David killed a lion, bear, and giant. Other stories such as the dead being raised, people being healed of sickness, demons being cast out, miracles being performed. People coming to know Christ. So many stories out there. What is yours?
