Castles, Kings, and Priests

Today my friend Wade Thompson sent me a note from Germany.

He and his wife Linda are establishing a beachhead there for the Lord Jesus. You should see the castle that they are contending for by faith. (I have a picture of it on my desk)

Their goal is to establish a full mission ministry that will shake the nation for Jesus. Now that is faith! (Phil 1:20)

Wade reminded me that God is not so much interested in ability, as He is availability. He went on to say, "when the church moves into her identity as priests and kings, mission will be at the forefront of our focus and not just met after our home front is taken care of." As Revelation 5:10 states, "And He has made us kings and priests unto our God and we shall reign on earth".

Let us take over for Jesus, and then let him take over.
