How's your life? Are you living your dream or just getting by?

The opportunities we've got are so vast, I think the dream is probably a lot closer than you realize.

Take Billy and Katie Swann for example. They are having a blast. They love to see people experience the kingdom of God. They love to see folks healed. Watching young people being discipled is a normal part of their day.

As Billy reported, "We've seen incredible changes in these sons and daughters of God, and we've seen Him at work in and through them."

While traveling from Ecuador to Peru, our squad stopped at a border town called Tumbes.  While walking through the city center, some of our participants came across a woman who was sick, physically disabled and begging.  She had an abdominal tumor and was in pretty rough shape.

Our teams decided to pray for her and ask God to heal her broken body.  As they were speaking words of life over her she stood up, her back straightened and she began dancing around-something she had not done in years.  Her tumor (visibly) went away and instantly she began praising God.

This quickly drew a crowd, as many of the locals had seen this deformed woman begging day after day.  People started bringing children, friends and family to our squad pleading with them to pray over them as well.  They knew the power of God was at work here and they wanted to be a part of it.

 

Later they reported, "There are many more stories of physical, emotional and spiritual healing that have happened. There is absolutely nothing else I'd rather be doing with my life right now."

We have been given all authority to bring healing and good news to those in despair. We've got the full backing of a God who promised to give us an "abundant life."

I pray that you're not settling. I pray that you're going for it and living your dream. How is your life going?
