What UP! How ya livin'!? The sun came out over here! Yeah, it reared its head yesterday, busting through the immensity of clouds, slowly clearing the sky of the rain's wrath. And today, the sun was out all day! YEAH! I missed most of the rampant raining since I was at E3 last week (off da HOOK son! also why I missed sending out da Word last week). I heard it was non-stop! N e who, give up some prayers for those spots underwater. On to... da Word!
checkit:
One of those days, Jesus went out to a mountainside to pray, and spent the night praying to God.
- Luke 6:12
Word. My man J, went out to pray, and spent the night doing it. That's a LONG time potnas! Homeboy up and went to a place where he could be alone, and alone with Pops above... to get his convo on dawg! Let's try to put this verse in context before diggin' further. The next couple verses talk about J selectin' a certain 12, designating them apostles, from among all his disciples. These are the 12 you keep hearin' about. Anywho, he then rolls with these kats to some towns and straight brings the mighty hand of healing to maaaaaaaaaaasses of peeps yo! It was ILL! Peep Matthew chapter 10. Going into a little more detail, it says that J sent these apostles out to unleash healing as well after having given them the authority to do so.
What kind of healing? It runs the GAMIT kid! Sickness, death, demonic possession... all could not hold the line against the coming onslaught of holy righteousness about to come raining down, oh no no NO! But checkit... this only happened after my man J slipped away to pray... all night... and with Pops above alone. BAM! Something major was about to go down. Not only that, my man J had to make some big decisions about on whom to bestow authority, what towns to visit, and what instructions to give. Huge huge HUGE!
What does this mean for us? A couple things... when sumtim big is about to go down, it's prolly a good GOOD idea to chill with Pops for a hot minute, straight shooting the breeze and enjoying each other's company, and seeking His direction and advice for the path you should travel. Cuz ain't no WAY Pops will lead you astray. Ya heard! And that's da truth, buhlee dat! heh heh. Secondly, we ought to make time for Pops kid! Pops isn't just some amazing, unapproachable God entity sitting on a throne far away from us insignificant ants. Naw bruthaz and sisaz, He is a God who would LOVE to just sit and chat with you and to have a bonafide relationship with ya. Have you ever been able to build a strong, uplifting relationship with someone... without communicating with them? No, that's impossible. It's the same with Pops. We can't expect to fully engage in the illest relationship possible if we don't chill with Pops. So, slow down! Take pause kid! Take Pops out for once, and enjoy hanging out. I promise you won't regret it.. and that you'll reap totally unexpected and awesome blessings as result.
