The Lost Are Found

There are 2 types of the lost becoming found.

The first way is that we are a light that points to God and in that way the lost get found. For me that is explained amazingly through Britt Nicole's The Lost Get Found 

The second is that we wait upon God to work to get the lost back. For me this one is shown through Hillsong's The Lost are Found

To me the first is a mandate. It's my goal. I want to live life pointing to God and saying "Jesus is how you will be found!" To do this we must live radically. John 12:46 becomes what we want to be like. We shine like how Jesus shines and his light in us gets the lost found.

John 12:46
"I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness."

The second is something I feel that I have been working at We can't make these people find themselves and we cannot do it for them. We just have to wait on God to bring them back.  Personally this is way harder. We pray for the lost. We fight for them through prayer.

2 Corinthians 10:3-4
For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does.  The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.

We fight for the lost even when the earthly lookout doesn't change. God is ALWAYS moving. He is always restoring that which was broken.

2 Corinthians 12:9
“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”
GOD IS WORKING! He is working in me, in my brokenness. MY PERFECT GOD MOVES IN MY OBVIOUSLY MESSED UP WORLD! He can save and restore and I will help him in our quest to see the lost get found.
