The pursuit of Father God’s heart is the driving force behind living a life that honors and loves God with all he is.

If our life (our identity) is hidden in Christ, then our identity looks like Jesus. His mind was set on things above, things like His father’s will, His Father’s purposes and His only motivation was to fulfill His Father’s mission.

My story of freedom started in a very dark place of abuse and neglect. Growing up in an abusive home may not seem like the correct environment for me to discover freedom, but this is where my story began.

I have discovered that many men have a masquerade problem… They have spent most of their lives covering up, disguising themselves in fear of being discovered. The fear comes from having a misunderstanding of their true identity as men, I know this from experience.

Thankfully the Father has made our identity known… Made in His image, saturated with His Spirit, Father God defines your identity with Himself!

Seeing through God’s eyes makes all the difference in how we respond…when God asks…what do you see?

In the word revolution, somewhat hidden at the beginning, is the most powerful word…if we want to affect change, shake things up, overthrown a kingdom of darkness…we need more of this word in our life.

In Matthew 14 we read about Jesus feeding the 5000

It’s a powerful story of compassion and is going to lead into a huge teaching moment for the disciples.

The truth to embrace today is this… The greatest commander, the wisest general…God, has positioned us for victory!

Following Jesus is not for the fainthearted…we want a map, a GPS, a detailed route but then Jesus hands us a compass and simply says…Follow me.

The question that rises is…What do we put our trust in, our navigation skills or His?
