I wrestled with my uneasiness, unsure why I felt this way until God began to unlock my understanding. From the time I was young, I had built my life to be full to the brim, accumulating a long resume of accomplishments, none of which brought me satisfaction. Instead, God placed a hunger inside of me to be marked by the supernatural. One definition of supernatural is \u201cabove, beyond, and far higher and greater than the natural.\u201d I longed to see things that exceeded what I could do through my own achievements and to witness the power of God in my daily life.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote alignright\"><blockquote><p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-color\">God placed a hunger inside of me to be marked by the supernatural.<\/mark><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since that time, God has taught me to forsake striving and performance, instead discovering His will and wisdom by walking in friendship with Him. Even more than before, my heart yearns to experience ministry moments that inspire awe of our magnificent God. Our team had the honor of experiencing some of these moments during our summer of outreach at Asbury Park. As I share our story, I\u2019ll also share the five lessons we learned through reaching our neighborhood.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"866\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Neighborhood-man-receiving-prayer-as-he-chooses-to-give-His-life-to-Jesus-866x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21915\" style=\"width:300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Neighborhood-man-receiving-prayer-as-he-chooses-to-give-His-life-to-Jesus-866x1024.jpeg 866w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Neighborhood-man-receiving-prayer-as-he-chooses-to-give-His-life-to-Jesus-254x300.jpeg 254w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Neighborhood-man-receiving-prayer-as-he-chooses-to-give-His-life-to-Jesus-768x908.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Neighborhood-man-receiving-prayer-as-he-chooses-to-give-His-life-to-Jesus-1299x1536.jpeg 1299w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Neighborhood-man-receiving-prayer-as-he-chooses-to-give-His-life-to-Jesus.jpeg 1427w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 866px) 100vw, 866px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Neighborhood man receiving prayer as he chooses to give His life to Jesus<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-green-cyan-color\">1. We can partner with God to see His desires fulfilled.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We were gathered for our regular weekly prayer meeting when God said, \u201cI want this neighborhood. Will you make My name great at Asbury Park?\u201d We felt the weight of this invitation. For a year, we had been hosting neighbors in the basement of our ministry house for weekly dinners. Dozens had found community and a sense of belonging in that space. Some had already met Jesus, but He wanted us to cast the net further. No one on our team had imagined taking our Thursday night dinners out to the park for the summer. But God had heard our cry: \u201cGod, you get to do whatever is in your heart to do. We pray your will be done in this region and that Jesus would be glorified.\u201d And that day, He gave us another piece of His blueprint for our region.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-green-cyan-color\">2. We don\u2019t have to strive.&nbsp;<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Naturally, we looked at the invitation from God and imagined possibilities of how to gather the community at our neighborhood park. We considered the successes of past events that utilized raffle and prize incentives or entertainment such as bounce houses. We went back to prayer and God revealed more of His plan to us. He wanted it simple. As we prayed, He gave us visions of the stations in the park: crafts themed to tell the story of creation, food to fill bellies, a field with kids carefree and playing, bold worship, and a baptismal. He said to get ready for people to be saved and baptized!&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote alignright\"><blockquote><p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-color\">May we all live in daily expectation of the things that are beyond what we could do in our own ability, partnering with God and watching His fame spread across the earth.<\/mark><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-green-cyan-color\">3. God has a storehouse of provision.&nbsp;<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although God\u2019s plan was relatively simple, we did not have the finances or workers to pull off this vision of taking dinners to the park every other week throughout the summer. God impressed upon us that He would be faithful to provide everything we needed to serve the community in this way. We chose to embrace His plan with faith that He would make a way.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-green-cyan-color\">4.

Over a dozen churches were represented by the participants who filled volunteer slots and donated food and supplies. The greater Body of Christ truly came together, unified around Jesus and His mission.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-green-cyan-color\">5.

And so, His people took that love to the park. We shared the good news that Jesus gave His life so that all could be saved, healed, and delivered. Many accepted the invitation to receive this gift from Jesus, giving their lives to Him. People experienced healing in their bodies and freedom from bondage. Many encountered the power of the Holy Spirit in a personal way. Twenty-four people chose to follow Jesus through water baptism!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">God rained down this summer on Asbury Park. It was His plan, His provision, His glory. It was Jesus\u2019 reward.
