Friends, God wants INSPIRATION not PERSPIRATION. We will simply become exhausted if we spend all our energy trying to "pump up" ministry with programs, "hyped up" worship or "charged up" emotionalism.
True inspiration comes from a heart yielded fully to God, a life in a state of being continually FILLED with the Holy Ghost, "speaking to ourselves in psalms, hymns and spiritual songs."
It's exciting to take steps of FAITH! Stepping out and seeing if God wants to do something is part of the journey. If he doesn't desire to move in that way, that's fine, we withdraw and move on. But sometimes, God will move mightily, He was just waiting for someone to step out of the boat.
When we recognize that God is the one leading and Jesus is building His own church (without our help if need be), we can RELAX, not STRIVE, not PUSH, not WORRY.
Sometimes it will become obvious through the lack of fruit that God's not in a particular venture. If so, fine, if God's not in it...LET IT GO.
Let God be God and go with the flow.
PRAYER
Dear Lord, hallowed be thy name. Thank You for a purpose to live for. Thank You for a hope that fadeth not away. Thank You for a heart that is passionate for Your Kingdom purpose. In all of my endeavors to serve You, live for You and fulfill the mandate You've given me...I don't want to do anything that will take away from what You're blessing just to prop up something I may want to do on my own. Let Your Kingdom come...let Your will be done. In Jesus' name. Amen.
