Just another ordinary day

Being from Montana, I have spent most of my life in the woods. Not like a mountain man but just hiking biking and camping. I have. Spent days getting lost in the trees out my backyard. I would play war with my brother and we would chase each other, well I would run and He would tackle me. Scrapes and bruises were common after an afternoon in the woods. Now I am older and my brother has moved out of town so those days are just fun memories. However I still get this urge to go run through the trees. Summer and fall are great seasons to go play in the forest, spring is a bit wet and winter I am usually snowboarding in the mountains. Being in Germany I can't snowboard and summer doesn't come for a while, so what am I to do? Crazy thing happened summer came early, well the end of spring at least.
It was such a nice day. I didn't have too much to do, not very many people around and sunny was on it's way down but the weather was just below comfortable. The wind would nip at you fingers but a lite jacket would warm you up. Man it was good. I was walking from town to the castle and I took the path through the woods, I looked into the trees and I started to think about running around in there. I saw logs laying on the hillsides and stumps cut everywhere. Oh it was perfect for running through.
I went back to my room and grabbed my jacket and hat, tied my shoes extra tight and ran off into the woods. At first my music was blasting into my ears, I was spinning and jumping off small cliffs and running down hills. I grabbed a stick and pretended to be Lord of the Rings, fighting invisible people and you may laugh but that takes a lot of energy to kill invisible people.
I had to laugh, I was being such a boy in the woods, and Jesus was right there laughing with me. I needed to talk to him about a few things but I really didn't want to think about though. Jesus didn't force me to talk about it either, yet I want to chat it up with Him so I just said hi and He smiled. I continued to run and jump and stab at the air, as time went on and more invisible people were jabbed and sliced by my stick, I found my self sitting on a bench watching the sun set. I started to speak out loud to God and ask Him for guidance. He listened but instead of answering me, He told me I needed to know that I had a purpose in life and on my trip to Africa. I said yeah I know I have purpose. But that didn't mean anything, God told me I had to own that statement. I stood up and said I Have A Purpose. I continued to say this and I felt the Holy Spirit ask, why do have a purpose, what is your purpose, who are you?
I began to get excited and the fire of God began to burn within me. I so wanted crowds to be standing before me to here what I had to say. Even though there wasn't anyone there, I began to speak to the trees and rocks. The more I spoke the more energy flowed from me. I began to speak out every truth I knew about who I am and who God is and what God did. I was so happy to talk about it. So what if all who heard me were trees. They are apart of Gods Creation and they should be reminded of the Good News of their Creator. I talked about Gods sacrifice and His Gift of love. I probably spoke for a good hour, I focused in on this rotting stump down the path. I gave him a piece of my mind. I kinda feel bad for him, maybe he was saved and I just misjudged him. Oops. I felt like I still had so much more to say but I felt the need to declare the presence of the God of the Universe. I just began to say the Names of God, and give Him all my praise. I was nearly screaming out these praises because all the world needed to hear who the God I serve actually is. I felt like I was announcing God to the trees and inviting Him to come. I could see my self standing on a balcony leaning over the edge shouting to the people who would listen that God was about to come out and show Himself. As I declared His name and I stated that He was on that hill in the forest were I stood, there was a shift in the spiritual and physical world. I felt something that I've never felt before. Trust me when say it had nothing to do with the physical realm but it surrounded me like a giant robe. I felt the presence of the Lord, rain onto my back. It was awe striking. I instantly crunched up into a ball and clenched my eyes, my mouth was to afraid to open. I did my best to show reverence to my King, but in all reality I did all this out of reflex. The presence I felt was not the full glory of God, it was a tiny tiny taste of what it really is. I am excited for the day when I can experience the fullness of Gods glory and look upon His face.
As I recovered and the moment had passed, I stood up, turned down the path and walked away. I knew without a shadow of a doubt that my work was finished in the woods. I had got what God had waiting for me, a new revelation of the power and authority I have through Him. I had never know this before. I knew I had a voice but I never thought what I had to say was worth something. In that moment on that mount, I reclaimed my voice and asserted the power I had in it. Now I know I am BombProof. With this power nothing can touch me, now I know that I have always had victory over darkness. The Power that raised Jesus from the dead, lives within me. I have full access to that power through Jesus Himself. I can cast out demons, I can declare dominion of creation, I can raised to dead back to life, I can heal the sick like Jesus healed, because I have now accepted this inheritance. Now that I know who I am, the enemy can do nothing to stop me. He knows he is screwed. I can be sure he is working like hell in Africa to build up his strongholds before I get there but I come with the Truth that blots out all darkness. The battle is already over and I have won. This is war. This is Africa. This is life.
