As
the Body of Christ, we must understand the task that is before us!
The weight of our mission is insurmountable apart from the
inspiration, revelation and anointing of the Holy Spirit. We cannot
finish what Jesus began without a visible, recognizable, Holy Ghost
discerned spiritual awakening! We must actively solicit participation
within the Church and fervently seek God for an “end times”
spiritual awakening.
Romans
13:11, “And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to
awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we
believed.” My very soul cries out, “Lord, send Your fire among
us! Burn away everything that is unlike You! Reveal to us anything
that is displeasing to You!” Can we call out to God with the
Psalmist in Psalm 139:23, “Search me, O God, and know my heart: try
me, and know my thoughts: 24 And see if there be any wicked way in
me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” Lord, help us to see
ourselves as You see us! And give us the desire and strength to make
the necessary corrections.
I
pray that God pour out a holy desperation in the Church to fulfill
His plan in this hour! Are we willing to be shaped and molded as a
vessel that God will choose to use? God can use whoever or whatever
He chooses when He chooses. He has utilized various elements in
creation as it has served His purpose. He has used animals, birds,
fish and even inanimate objects like a staff or a piece of wood. He
has even used some of us when it suited His purpose. But, we need to
be so hungry to be used by God that He will invent occasions to use
us. That He will see our desperation to come along beside Him and
fulfill His Plan in this hour.
A
Pentecostal level spiritual awakening will require a restoration of
the power of the Holy Spirit in our churches. May the Spirit of God
bring about a hunger in our congregations that He can birth
Pentecostal revival as in our history. Revival that will change us
and our families, move our communities and affect our nation. We must
have Divine intervention in this hour! If we will seek Him according
to His will, He has promised to answer. 2Chronicles 7:14, “If my
people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and
pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I
hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their
land.” And again in Luke 11:9, “And I say unto you, Ask, and it
shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be
opened unto you.”
We
need Divine intervention. However, we must desire His help and
welcome Him when He comes. It’s time to pray like our future
depends on it! It does and the future of everyone within the sphere
of our ministry! IT’S TIME TO PRAY!
