Filming for the Next Billion Years

I heard a message today given to media professionals by a theology professor. It was quite interesting and very eye-opening. 

There are certain things that we will do for a time on Earth, which is good & Godly, and then it will cease as the earth meets eternity after Jesus returns. Evangelism, for example, will not be in heaven. Why would it be? Everyone will already be saved.

Other things will go on for eternity: prayer, worship, storytelling... Wait, what? God is one who does keep records. Look at His word. It's full of poetry, proverbs, history, letters, direct revelation & so much more. Something this professor was saying today was that angels are keeping records of events. So although evangelism may cease - reporting will not.

I want to be a reporter for God's kingdom. God has His eye on media, and it's time to express Him through it. Not necessarily the way that we see on TV or the movies, but in a way that grips people more than Batman ever could.  He wants prophetic messengers who will capture His heart throughout the earth in bold, artistic ways. 

His healing spirit breaks out in Lakeland, FL, and He partners with media pros to broadcast it across the globe (god.tv). His spirit touches someone personally and he/she writes a story, raises money, hires people and makes a movie. Jesus' heart is being expressed through a 14 year old girl to a homeless guy in South America, and someone is there with a camera, waiting to share with the Western world what more people can do. People pray & worship night & day in a single room for years at a time, and 7 robotic cameras, several teams of people and one trailer ensure that it is online for anyone to view at anytime (theprayerroom.tv). 

All I'm trying to say is that He is raising people up to be messengers & reporters for HIS Kingdom. Let Him refine you into who He wants you to be, and see what He does with you.
