Can you hear the sound of the trumpet blowing across the
land? The Lord is trying to get our attention,
but many are asleep in the land. Many do not have ears to hear the s
ound of the alarm.
What do alarms do? They are supposed
to wake us up.
When the alarm on the clock next to your bed
goes off in the morning, what do you do? Do you immediately get up and
begin your day or do you press the snooze button and go back to sleep for
another 10 minutes? Or do you completely tune out the alarm
altogether?
There are many in the body of Christ who are not hearing the
alarm. The trumpet is blowing. We must awake, arise and be about the
Father's business.
I hear a call and a cry in my spirit for an awakening
in the land. We've been asleep and slumbering for a long time. We
must wake up and do that which God has called us to do. We must get ready
for that which is coming.
I don't know about you, but I don't want
to be left out of this next wave of God's Spirit. I don't want to be one
of those who is wiped out by the giant wave that is coming. I want to be
one of those who will catch th e wave and ride it out. There is a huge
wave coming. I have seen it in the Spirit. This wave or move of
God's Spirit will be filled with healings, miracles, signs and wonders. We
must not remain asleep and slumbering. We must wake up and prepare
ourselves for this move of God. We must not be bystanders and those who
are content to stand on the sidelines and watch what God is doing. We must
be participators. We must line ourselves up with God's plan and
purposes. We must lay hold of that which He has called us to do.
My constant prayer has been, "Lord, don't pass me by. I want to be
on the cutting edge of what You are doing in the earth. Make me hungry and
thirsty for You, Lord. Breathe on me the breath of life and cause me to be
revived and awakened to Your Spirit." Is this the cry of your heart?
Joel 2:17 - Let the
priests, who minister to the Lord, weep betw een the porch
and the altar....
We are all called to be priests who minister to the Lord, weeping
between the porch and the altar. How much time do we spend ministering to
the Lord. This is the highest calling. This is what we were created
for. How many of us have put ministry to the church before ministry to the
Lord? I pray that divine order will come back to the church. I pray
that God will bring divine alignment to His body. I pray that God will
give us ears to hear, eyes to see, and hearts to receive all that He has for us
in this day and hour. I pray that we will be transformed into His image,
from glory to glory.
Many have stopped short of the call.
Many have become distracted with the things of this world. We must
overcome the distractions and everything that has stopped us from going forward
in God. If we are not pressing on in faith, God is not pleased. We
must press on! We must press in! We must arise, wake up and position
ourselves to be used by God. He wants to use every one of us. He
wants to use ordinary people to do extraordinary things.
I pray
that God will breathe on you today. I pray that you will hear the sound of
the trumpet and that you will wake up and do what He has called you to do.
I pray that you will take your position as a priest and minister to the
Lord. As you minister to Him, He will minister to you.
Psalm 124:8 - Our help is in the name of the
Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Some of you have given up because
you have not seen the breakthrough that you were praying for. You gave up
too soon my friend, for the breakthrough is at the door. Don't give
up! Take your position and get back to that place of m inistering unto the
Lord with your whole heart. Press in for the victory! It's there for
you! Don't allow the enemy to rob you of that victory! Go after
it!
Pray in the Spirit! Don't be afraid to speak in tongues for
hours at a time! Praying in tongues will not only edify you, but it will
prepare you to move and operate in the supernatural. Praying in tongues
will help remove the cobwebs that have been set up in our minds by the enemy
because we quit pressing in. We must learn how to be continually filled
with the Holy Spirit, encouraging ourselves in the Lord. We must learn how
to become totally dependent upon God. We must learn how to activate and
use our faith to propel us into our destiny.
God has so much for
us. He is a loving Father who is for us and not against us. Listen
to Him. Stop listening to the lies of the enemy and listen to the Holy
Spirit. Believe God for the impossible to become possible. Extend
your faith t o trust in Him regardless of circumstances. Extend your faith
to trust in Jesus. He will never fail you.
Ask the Lord
to give you ears to hear the blowing of the trumpet. Ask the Lord
to send an awakening to you, to your family, to your city, and to this
nation. Ask God to send the rain in the time of the latter rain and
breathe the breath of life upon us once again. We need a Holy Ghost
awakening in the land and I pray that God will give all of us a desire to
be a vital part of what He is going to do in the earth in these latter
days.
