Grab the keys and start that car

Publication date Sep 17, 2021

I will never forget the day I drove a Lamborghini Diablo. It was a beautiful day in Switzerland, and I was speaking at a men’s conference. The parking lot of the church was full of people, displays, motorcycles, and a few cars. Then I saw it, glistening in the morning sun. It was screaming my name: “Paul Marc, do you dare touch my paint, enter the cockpit, and turn the keys of an engine that will rip your head off as it accelerates through the mountainous terrain of the Alps?”

In my mind, I screamed back, “Yes! Yes! Yes! Please, God, let me drive that monster.” To my surprise, a distinguished man approached me with a set of keys and invited me to try his car. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord! God heard my prayer.

friend, God is offering you a set of keys that will enable you to drive His car. The Bible says, “‘I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.’” (Matthew 16:19, NIV) Heaven’s keys were not designed to remain in the safe confines of a local church. They were created to be used in the kingdoms of business, arts, sports, or wherever God leads you. I can guarantee you this will be the wildest ride in your life. The Bible promises, “will not the ministry of the Spirit be even more glorious? If the ministry that brought condemnation was glorious, how much more glorious is the ministry that brings righteousness! For what was glorious has no glory now in comparison with the surpassing glory.” (2 Corinthians 3:8-10, NIV)  

Grab the keys of the Kingdom. Drive into a dull and broken world with His Spirit because you are a miracle.
