How to blow things up.

Text within this block will maintain its original spacing when publishedThank you for your prayers.

I hope you have never been in an angry mob.

We see them on TV.
In the old days mobs carried
pitchforks and torches.
Now they throw Molotov Cocktails.

Molotov Cocktails
are bottles filled with gasoline or kerosene
and lit with a makeshift wick.
You throw the bottle,
it breaks sharp glass all over
and it bursts into a hot violent burst of flame.

Very effective if you want to destroy civilization.

Years ago we started seeing visions of little fires all over the earth.
I painted a picture of it,
and others have too.
And we have started little groups,
of two and three artists.
We called them "Fire Teams"
because that is the smallest unit in an army.

I have always thought of the little fires
as groups of artists sitting around the fire.
"Kum ba ya" everybody.

A few weeks ago, during our Tuesday prayer group,
the Lord corrected me.
Those little fires are not artists holding hands
around the campfire.
Those little fires
are the flash from a Molotov Cocktail.

Artists
getting connected,
learning how to hear God,
and then going and bursting into flame
in the face of the darkness and evil
that grows all around us.
The dark is going to get darker,
but we are incendiary people
bursting into flame
with the power
and presence of God.
Ka-Pow!

Get connected.
Listen to God,
and find another artist
and listen to God together.
There are more for us
than those who are against us.

He Never Fails,

We are moving the Friday email to my other publication on Substack, and I will be simplifying my writing schedule to the Friday email and my Sunday teaching on Monday. Thanks for taking the time to read my writing each week.
