no matter the cost

07.17.08 l Morningstar Ministries l Fort Mill, SC

What began as a “normal” worship conference ended with the commissioning of an army of rabid young psalmists, musicians, and worshippers to cultivate and raise up places for Jesus to lay His head in their cities, nations, and lives. This great exchange shows the season and the times we are in. Who wants a “typical” or even just a “good” charismatic conference anymore anyway?? One word = LAME.

My expectations are so high now every time we gather together to seek His face that I’m really disappointed if I leave not seeing a different side of HIm than I’ve seen before!! Like Moses, my dream is to talk to God “face to face” (Ex. 33:11) as a man would his friend. In order to not literally die while this happens and ascend the “hill of the Lord” David warns that we must have “clean hands and a pure heart” (Ps. 24:4). While I believe God is granting a generation accessibility to Him on levels we’ve never thought were possible on earth, this always comes with a price. While most of us (me included) have no clue how much we have to sacrifice or our flesh must sizzle to get there…we are all saying the same thing -  “WE WANT YOU NO MATTER THE COST….NO MATTER THE PRICE!!”  LIFE IS JUST LAME WITHOUT YOU AND YOUR PRESENCE!! SO TAKE US THERE THAT WE MAY TRULY LIVE, EXPERIENCE TRUTH, AND DWELL WITH YOU!!

This was the very thing we taught, trained, and imparted to this massive crew of worshippers last weekend in Fort Mill, SC. Its a deeper and truer desire than just honing your skills (which is very important), learning your theory, and getting in the flow as a worship leader…but its the passion, zeal, and hunger for HIS FACE. This is where it all starts. Hunger drove this crew from California, Canada, Honduras, Austria, and even South Korea to this conference!! Talk about desperation! They were the face of a new wave of broken, random, beautiful, and hungry tribe longing for more.

Well, more is exactly what they got!! The last night of the conference, we honored Leonard Jones as a father of this massive global worship movement spreading like fire around the globe. As a cynical, arrogant and prideful generation…we must learn to HONOR those who have come before and labored among us!! The words of Bill Johnson are wise and timely in this season: “You cannot receive from what you don’t honor.” This simple act released something electric in the atmosphere and as John Mark and I released this Davidic worshipping mandate to BURN BRIGHT until the return of Jesus…the fire began to blaze in that room! SInce the conference was called “THE FURNACE” - I guess we got what we asked for! Arrows of passion and zeal were shot into the hearts of those in the room and people were so overcome with the fire of God that they could no longer stand. We thought we would end with releasing our sound of love and affection to the Father…so we lifted our voices together as one united instrument of praise. From that point forward, the sound didn’t stop until 7am the next morning!! They took the words to rebuild the tabernacle of David literal and they burned all night long!!  I could only make it until 2am before I was wiped…but they kept going and going and burning and burning!!

I’m beginning to realize that once this dream is caught…people don’t want to stop. Why should we stop them?! I say BURN ON BABY!! The widespread revelation God is sharing with His bride is the same thing He spoke to Mike Bickle in Cairo, Egypt many years ago: I’m going to change the face of the church in one generation.” I got news for you…HE IS GOING TO USE US TO DO IT!

EVERYONE OUT THERE - DON’T STOP BURNING UNTIL HE RETURNS…IN YOUR CAR, YOUR HOME, YOUR CHURCH, AND IN THE FURACE!! NEVER LET THE FIRE DIE!!
