Divine Dominoes

Ever since we have arrived in Kansas City I have been laughing at all of the divine set-ups that God has been doing.

It seems that almost every day I will arrive in class and the speaker for that day will be referencing the exact bible verse or passage that I was led to study that morning in the prayer room! It has almost become a bit of standing joke between Rhonda and I; the speaker says...turn to blah blah blah....and I open my bible to that spot and show Rhonda the verse already highlighted.

Now the thing that makes it even funnier is that I just bought a different bible, specifically for our time at Commission, so I didn't come to KC with anything written or noted in this bible - they are all things that I have encountered since getting here!

So please don't get me wrong, this is not a "wow I'm so awesome!" kind of thing. It has been really cool, but kind of scary at the same time; because many of the things I've been marking have been invitations into things that I don't presently possess.

Well Sunday morning we arrived at church and it happened again! Cory Russel was preaching and touching on a passage that I had just been praying through the day before. However, as he preached his message didn't really touch my heart. I was starting to get a bit disconnected and was ready to go for lunch. Then suddenly, my heart started stirring and within a few minutes I was literally fighting myself from running to the front of the auditorium and throwing myself down at the alter!

Fortunately for me, about 10 minutes later he did call people forward for prayer and I was off like a bullet.

As I'm standing on the prayer line waiting to get prayer for, I am struck by something - the worship team is the same team that usually does the 8 am worship set in the prayer room! What's odd about this is that they never play at the main services!? What's also odd is that they are playing the exact same song that the Lord has been meeting me in week after week in the prayer room. Now to put that in perspective, there have been very few emotional moments in the prayer room over the past 8 weeks, but this song has been a unique event, a place were my emotions are actually activated in a deep way.

They have just finished preaching my morning meditation, and I am being ministered to by my worship team and they are playing my song!

I could go on and list even more things that were divinely set up for that one single event but there are not enough Gigabytes of storage on Blogger to hold a story that long! Needless to say I felt like God was playing Divine Dominoes with my heart on Sunday and with one breath of His Spirit they all came toppling down.
