New England Aflame Conference Part 2

Heidi also shared a story about how she was in China to speak at a conference. While she was there she found out through the news that part of Mozambique had flooded(think New Orleans but two or three times a year). She was burdened by the situation, but was thinking 'God, can't I just ignore this? I'm suppose to be at this conference, you've sent me here to minister and I can't think about this and the conference at the same time."

In the midst of her questioning, she heard God say "feed 100,000 people". She was like "what God?". Again He said "feed 100,000 people". Then she started to think "I don't have the money, I don't have the food, I don't have the resources". Again "feed 100,000 people". So she said "Ok Lord". She finished the China conference goes back, and through a series of something only God could work out, food and things that were needed were delivered.

Bringing the two things together(the parable and the China story) God wasn't asking her to figure out all the logistics. He just said "Go do it and I'll work out the rest". Heidi said if she had waited for the right time, or the money, or next June to plan the crusade it wouldn't matter because the people would have been dead. They needed what the needed NOW. Not in a month, not in a week, not yesterday, NOW.

So many times I think we don't do things because we think we need a blueprint for everything. We say we rely on Him, but we really don't. Proof is we have all our backup plans of B C and D in case He doesn't work it out. She said our question shouldn't be how do I do it, but what should I do. Then just go do it. She doesn't have a back up plan. There's just Jesus. If He doesn't show up, it doesn't work.
