Currently Wrecking Me: I Want To Know You.

I stand before You, Awed by Your Majesty
Covered by Your mercy, Your blood has made me free
Draw me to You, and set my heart on fire

I want to Know,
You're my one desire

I give you my worship
All of my Passion
I give you my whole heart
All my devotion

Grace never ending, Your hands they carry me
Your body is broken for all the world to see
My heart is held by love so unconditional

You captivate me
You're the lover of my soul

I give you my worship
All of my Passion
I give you my whole heart
All my devotion

Here I will bow down
Say that I need You
Here I will worship
Say that I love you

Oh how I love you (4x)

I want to know You
Let Your Spirit overwhelm me
Let Your Presence overtake my heart

-Jesus Culture

The Journey Continues...

I don't even know where to start! This has been one of the most incredible times of my life and this is only the beginning. We are up at 6 for breakfast, in class from 8-12, lunch from 12-1, prayer room from 1-3, and then we have numerous outreach and worship times. As a class, we are going through some of the most intense teachings on things like the Kingdom of God, world views, original design, the power of the tongue, the Holy Spirit, etc. I can honestly say that this has been some life altering stuff. Honestly, it amazes me how the enemy has hidden a lot of these truths from me for so long. Not only has it been hidden from me, but its been hidden from most of the church as well. It is his mission to keep us from our destiny of living as Sons and Daughters of God, however, God isn't letting that happen. There is a generation of people that are rising up and they desire nothing less than the FULLNESS OF GOD. They want everything that God has to offer, and they don't care what price they have to pay. They are burdened by the condition of the world, the church, and their comfortable little lives, and they are determined to see the promise of Habakkuk 2:14 fulfilled in their day or they will die trying. They are committing their lives to go wherever the Lord calls them and they will give Him ALL the GLORY! I am realizing that this is the cry of my heart! I just want to walk in the FULLNESS OF GOD. I want EVERYTHING that He has for me and I will do ANYTHING that He asks me to. I understand that this will cost me everything (reputation, approval of man, comfort of material things, or prestigious roles), but I don't care anymore. I have tried to fill my life with everything else in this world and NOTHING fulfills me except the fullness of Christ. If I am going to follow Christ, I want to give Him EVERYTHING! (Philippians 3:8) With that being said, I want to thank those of you that have supported me in this through prayers and financial contributions. I want to let you know that you have been a part of changing my life forever and I am very grateful for your faithfulness. I want to ask you to continue to pray for me and to ask the Lord about further financial contributions. I feel that the Lord has led me to start raising finances monthly, so I am asking that people would pray about partnering with me in this manner. If any of you want any more information on what is going on here, partnering with me, or if you just wanna talk I would love to hear from you. Email me at Matt.Beasley@theLOTproject.com, call me, or set up a time to skype (BeazlyBoo1)! I am always ready to fill you in and answer any questions that you have. Please stay in touch with me. I will continue to update this blog from time to time. Until next time..Love yall!

The past week or so...

As you know from my previous post, I have moved to Kona, Hawaii to go to YWAM's Discipleship Training School. After being here for almost 2 weeks, I have really gotten settled into the community here. There are about 70 people in my class, ranging from the ages of 17-36, and everyone here shares an mutual hunger for the Lord. Many of the people here have sold their houses, cars, etc...to come here and experience the fullness of what the Lord has for them. That may sound "crazy" but it sounds like a story that would fit well in the pages of the Bible. Almost everyone I have met has been filled with a raw hunger for the experiential knowledge of God! That just brings joy to my soul because the Lord PROMISES that they will be filled in Matthew 5:6. With that being said, there has already been some POWERFUL worship services and ministry times. Our class is definitely a motley crew. There are 11 different nations represented and the students come from every walk of life imaginable. (Drug addicts, make-up artists, website developers, contractors, students, hair stylists, nurses, etc.) This creates some interesting conversations, however, the beauty of it all is that we all share a love for Jesus. Even after just a week and a half we feel like we have known each other forever, so there is truly a community being formed. In the past week, we have been getting to hear the history and vision of the Community Transformations class. Many salvations, healing miracles, and faith stories have come from the previous classes. This makes me very excited for what is to come. We also were asked to pray and choose where we thought the Lord wanted us to go on our 3 month outreach, and I chose Mozambique, Africa. This country is known as one of the poorest countries in the world, so I am looking forward to helping the people here. While we are there we will be partnering and working with Heidi Baker's Ministry, and where ever else the Lord leads us. This trip has blown my mind so far and I know that there is a lot more to come. I just want to thank those that have supported me through prayer or financial support, I couldn't do it without you. Please continue to prayerfully consider supporting/partnering with me financially. One time gifts are great or you can consider giving monthly. You can donate by clicking the pay pal button on my page or you can send a check to the address below. If you want a tax write off make the checks out to The LOT Project and leave the memo blank. Put a sticky note on it notifying that the money is for the trip. I thank you for taking the time to read this update, for praying for me, and for helping financially. Please pray for me as I continue to follow the Lord's leading!

Please Consider Supporting Me...

The Lord has really be weighing heavy on my Spirit the last couple of days. I have been feeling a stirring for the last couple of months, but I haven't known what it was. The LOT Project and AHOP have been doing really well and I couldn't be more excited for what God is doing in Anderson, SC. On a personal note, I haven't ever been hungrier for a deeper relationship with the Lord. In asking God what's next, I feel that He has a lot left to pour out in Anderson, specifically in the area of discipleship. Earlier this month I was asked to speak at YWAM's DTS (Discipleship Training School) in Kona, Hawaii. I was very honored by this opportunity and I started to look into the program. As I researched the school, I realized that it was something that I would be very interested in. Over the past 5 years my heart's cry has been to be discipled. In talking to the YWAM DTS leader, I could see that his heart is to truly see communities transformed by the love of God. The more I thought about it, I could see the urgent need for discipleship to come to Anderson, SC. With that being said, I believe that God is leading me to attend YWAM's DTS this fall. I really believe that there is a lot there that can be imparted to me, and in return be brought back to Anderson, SC. This may sound crazy to some, because it is, however, I am going to follow the Word of the Lord at all cost. School starts September 30th, so I will be leaving before that. So here's the catch: I need prayer and financial support. I have to have a one way plane ticket ($538 or skymiles) to Kona, Hawaii, and $10,000+ over the course of the next 3 months. This may have knocked a few of you out of your seats, but I know that this is totally possible and it is in the Lord's hands. What does this money go to? Well, the first 3 months of school we have 30 hours of class time, corporate worship, and street outreach. Then the second 3 months we go to another country (South Africa, Finland, Israel, Amsterdam) or another US location. (New York, California, and maybe Anderson) The funds will also cover food, boarding, school materials, etc. I have total faith that God is going to provide the funds for this opportunity. I am asking you to pray for me and if you feel led to give to ask the Lord how much. If you want a tax write off make the checks out to The LOT Project and leave the memo blank. Put a sticky note on it notifying that the money is for the trip. You can also donate by paypal, there will be a button up shortly. I thank you for taking the time to read this blog and for considering partnering with me. Please pray for me as I continue to follow the Lord's leading!

What does love look like?

“What does love look like?” is the question I’ve been pondering
“What does love look like?”
“What does love look like?” is the question I’ve been asking of You

I once believed that love was romance, just a chance
I even thought that love was for the lucky and the beautiful
I once believed that love was a momentary bliss
But love is more than this
All You ever wanted was my attention
All You ever wanted was love from me
All You ever wanted was my affections, to sit here at Your feet

Then I sat down, a little frustrated and confused
If all of life comes down to love
Then love has to be more than sentiment
More than selfishness and selfish gain

And then I saw Him there, hanging on a tree, looking at me
I saw Him there, hanging on a tree, looking at me
He was looking at me, looking at Him, staring through me
I could not escape those beautiful eyes
And I began to weep and weep

He had arms wide open, a heart exposed
Arms wide open; He was bleeding, bleeding

Love’s definition, love’s definition was looking at me
Looking at Him, hanging on a tree
I began to weep and weep and weep and weep

This is how I know what love is, this is how I know what love is

And as I sat there weeping, crying
Those beautiful eyes, full of desire and love

He said to me, “You shall love Me, You shall love Me
You shall love Me, You shall love Me”

With arms wide open, a heart exposed
With arms wide open, bleeding, sometimes bleeding

If anybody’s looking for love in all the wrong places
If you’ve been searching for love, come to Me, come to Me
Take up your cross, deny yourself
Forget your father’s house and run, run with Me
You were made for abandonment, wholeheartedness
You were made for someone greater, someone bigger, so follow Me
And You’ll come alive when you learn to die

-Misty Edwards

Prayer Room Testimony...

This is a testimony of the POWER of God's presence...This is why we constantly declare an atmosphere of freedom over AHOP...Just step into His presence and He will do the rest...It's really that simple...

"I went to the prayer room the other night. I've never known what it's like to like crawl up in your Daddy's recliner and be held, but I'm pretty sure that it felt something like that x1,000,000,000. I laid down in the floor and within 30 seconds, I was in tears! I've had so much going on lately, and I've felt so torn about so many decisions about the church, my discipleship group and serving. It was so different to be away from everything, and be so relaxed and focused. So thank you so much for all the work everyone put into it and for allowing people to use it anytime. Best idea ever!"

Dont Be A Dying Star...

You've got your best man on the front side
You always show your best side
And evil's always on the other side
You say this is your strategy
But son I hope you take it from me
You look just like your enemy
You're full of pride
We better trash our idols if we want to be
In the army of the Lord
And the greatest idol is you and me,
We better get on the threshing floor
When will we learn that God's strategy
Is giving glory to the Lord?
We better trash our idols if we want to be
In the army of the Lord

Star how beautiful you shine
You shine more beautiful than mine
You shine from sea to shining sea
World-wide is your strategy
But shinning star I hope you see
If the whole wide world is staring straight at you
They can't see me...

-Jason Upton

The World Is Wide Open...

There is a power in poverty that breaks principalities
It brings the authorities down to their knees

There is a brewing frustration and an ageless temptation
To fight for control by manipulation

The God of the Kingdoms and God of Creation, God of the Nations
Sent this revelation through the homeless and penniless Jesus the Son
"The poor will inherit the Kingdom to come"

Where will we turn when our world falls apart
And all of the treasures we stored in our barns,
Can't buy the Kingdom of God?

And who will we praise when we've praised all our lives,
Men who build kingdoms and men who build fame, but Heaven does not know their names?

And what are we gonna fear,
When all that remains is a God on the throne with a child in his arms
And love in His eyes?

And the sound of His heart crying...

Take us way beyond religion
Way beyond the minds of man
Take us way beyond religion
Way beyond the minds of man
Take us way beyond politics and the ways of the world
Oh deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper,
We want to go deeper

Deeper into the ways of you Jesus
Teach us how to love, teach us how to love, teach us how to love,
Teach me, teach me how to love, teach me how to love
Teach us... teach us how to love

The world is wide open
The world is wide open
The world is wide open
It's wide open
It's wide open
It's wide open
It's wide open
Teach us how to love
Teach us how to love
Teach us your ways Jesus
We want to walk in your truth

Sons and daughters of the living God
Sons and daughters of the living God
Sons and daughters of the living God
All of heaven is waiting on us
It's waiting
It's waiting
It's waiting
It's waiting
Were waiting
I hear all of creation crying, "We're waiting"
"We're waiting"
"We're waiting"
"We're waiting"
"We're waiting"

Show us how to love

Stop Telling Us... That You're The Chosen People,
Start Living Like A Chosen People

Jason, I'm calling your name
Bryan, I'm calling your name
I'm calling your name
I'm calling your name
I'm Calling your name

Every son and daughter in the Church today...
I'm calling your name
Teach them
Teach them

That my ways are far beyond the ways of man
My ways are far beyond religion
My ways, my ways, are far beyond one people
My ways, my ways, are higher than your ways
There higher than your ways, higher than your ways
There higher than your ways

Teach them how to love
The world is wide open
Teach us how to love

Calling on you...
Waiting on you

Sons and daughters, sons and daughters, sons and daughters
Of the living god

It's time, it's time
We are,
Sons and daughters of the living God
Sons and daughters of the living God

Why are we not told plainly?

He charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead. Mark 9:9.

Say nothing until the Son of man is risen in you—until the life of the risen Christ so dominates you that you understand what the historic Christ taught. When you get to the right state on the inside, the word which Jesus has spoken is so plain that you are amazed you did not see it before. You could not understand it before, you were not in the place in disposition where it could be borne.

Our Lord does not hide these things; they are unbearable until we get into a fit condition of spiritual life. “I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.” There must be communion with His risen life before a particular word can be borne by us. Do we know anything about the impartation of the risen life of Jesus? The evidence that we do is that His word is becoming interpretable to us. God cannot reveal anything to us if we have not His Spirit. An obstinate outlook will effectually hinder God from revealing anything to us. If we have made up our minds about a doctrine, the light of God will come no more to us on that line, we cannot get it. This obtuse stage will end immediately His resurrection life has its way with us.

“Tell no man …”—so many do tell what they saw on the mount of transfiguration. They have had the vision and they testify to it, but the life does not tally with it, the Son of man is not yet risen in them. I wonder when He is going to be formed in you and in me? -Oswald Chambers
