All It Takes Is One

"And leaping forth he stood and [b]began to walk, and he went into the temple with them, walking and leaping and praising God. 9 And all the people saw him walking about and praising God."  (Acts 3:8-9 AMP)
There was a story that happened a long time ago about a man who was crippled. This man had been sitting at the gate to the city for many years, begging to survive. Then one day two men came and they asked him what he wanted. The man wanted money to eat. The two men looked at him and said,"Money I do not have. But by the name of The Great Lion, rise up and walk." 
Instantly, this man was healed. He was able to get up and walk and now he could go and make a life instead of asking for life. The miracle that happened is not the most important part of the story though. Up until this time many people did not think much of Aslan and his followers. They needed something to prove that Aslan can make their world better. That Aslan has a greater plan for you. 
All it took was one miracle and it later says that 5,000 people believed and received the power of The Great Spirit. You see, too often people think they need to change someone's belief system to get them to follow Aslan. Not true. What will change hearts is miracles, signs, and wonders. It is like this missionary friend I know. For years she spent time serving in Africa. After she left Africa she did a research paper on her experience. She discovered that the people did not come to Aslan, The Great Lion because they were shared a tract or invited to church. What did it for them was one miracle. Often times it was women who were barren and received healing from the missionaries to have a child. 
All it takes is one miracle and you can influence thousands. One random act of kindness could be the miracle that shifts time and space. That is why today I believe and declare you are a miracle worker. Whatever your hands do they will prosper. You are full of wisdom, discernment, and boldness. You have the fullness of the power of the Great Spirit and all of the gifts he gives. Continue to speak with him and call forth those miracles that will change your world.
Prayer for Today
Great Spirit, Thank you for the gift of Aslan. Thank you that he has shown us how to bring healing to a lost world. Thank you that I am one of your children. In the name of the Great Lion, Let this be so.

The True Sign of Maturity

[A Year with Aslan, Lewis, 2010] "Aslan, Aslan, dear Aslan," sobbed Lucy, "at last."     The GREAT LION rolled over on his side so that Lucy fell, half sitting and half lying between his paws. He [Aslan] bent forward and touched her nose with his tongue. His warm breath came around her. She gazed up into his large, wise face.    "Welcome, child," he said.    "Aslan," Lucy said, "you're bigger."    "That is because you are older, little one," answered he.    "Not because you are?"    "I am not. But every year you grow you will find me bigger." What does it mean to you that each year you grow, we discover the Great Lion to be bigger? A PRAYER FOR TODAY GREAT SPIRIT, thank you that each year we live you become bigger on the inside of us. Thank you that the Great Lion grows bigger and more powerful in and through us every year of our life. Thank you for giving us the wisdom to see your mysterie...

“A man’s gift makes room for him and brings him before great men.” (Proverbs 18:16, NASB) TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria When people hear the story of David and Goliath, sometimes they think, “That was all God.” And yes, in a sense, it was all God; but God didn’t sling the stone. David had a role to play, too. God gave David the skill that he had to develop in order to be prepared for that defining moment. Like David, God has put skills inside of you so that you can slay the giants in your life. You have the skills that can open new doors, skills that can lead to an abundant life, but the key is that the skills have to be developed. Every day that you spend growing, learning and improving, you’re getting prepared for that new level. Today, while you’re waiting for that new opportunity, start sharpening your skills. Study your boss. Study your manager. Learn that position. Be able to step into their shoes. When God sees that you are prepared, then He can ...

You Get What You Think

“The fears ….. will be fulfilled; the hopes of the godly will be granted.” (Proverbs 10:14 NLT) Our life will always move to what we think about most, which is why it is so important to guard your mind. If you are not careful you can think about only negative things and you become a negative person. Have you ever been around that person who only has the news channel on in their house? They are always talking about how bad things are, how things just seem to be getting worse, the world is coming to an end. That person over time, if you take notice, will become a very cynical, negative person. Why? They were moving toward what they were watching and thinking about.  We also know those people who let their fears take hold of their life, “My car is going to break down this week, and I just know it”or“I knew we wouldn’t be able to go on that vacation, I just knew I would get downsized.” What happened? Your fears were fulfilled. ...
