Are you feeling dry, spiritually? Are you burnout or feeling disconnected from church? Are you fed up and tired to the bone of waiting for God? Heidi Baker in her book, ‘Birthing the Miraculous’, writes: “Jesus never makes you tired. He never burns us out. He longs for us to burn continuously with fiery passion and love for Him and for the lost. If you feel tired and burned out, run back to the secret place.” Heidi tells how she was feeling burnt out and God gave her a prophetic picture of a chicken and an eagle. The chicken was running around in circles in the dirt. It flapped and flapped and ran around in circles… but a chicken simply cannot fly. The strangest things about chickens, is that even if their heads are cut off, they don’t know they are dead. They just keep flapping and running around in circles. Sometimes we can get so caught up in the needs of others around us that we don’t even notice we are dead and have been separated from our head, Christ Jesus.
