Bring it on Lord.....

 Let me start by saying how greatful I am to be apart of the body of Christ. I am greatful that I could possibly be around to witness one of the greatest awakenings and revivals ever. Do I honestly believe it's going to happen? In a word, absolutely! There are just to many things that are pointing towards that very fact. However, I alos believe some things have to happen within the body, within the church, before the next great awakening. Notice I said awakening, not revival. It is my opinion that there must be a massive awakening in the church, and it needs to happen soon. We are at a pivotal moment, a point were we the church have a grand opportunnity to change history. At least to the extent that God will allow. We allknow the great apostacy, the great falling away will come. We can not stop it, it is written in the living word of God, and it will be so. But we have the opportunity to expose as many people and perhaps an entire rising generation to the truth. We have the chance to show them who God really is, and powerful His word, His spirit and Love can be. But the church has got to wake up. I was listening to a song by Jake Hamilton, and there is a chorus line that says " I can hear them singing in the church now, I can hear them singing in the streets now, everybody is being set free coming out of the dark and into the light now...". And the Lord showed me that is how not only it WILL happen, but how it MUST happen. You see, it has to start with the church, whenwe begin to exalt God and begin to walk as one body and in what God has called His church to do, then the world will begin to follow. I was reading Isaiah, and in chapter 43, verse 14  is  about babylon to be destroyed, but in verse 21 the Lord says "The people whom I formed for myself, will declare My praise.". So if we are a people created in His image and likeness, and we are created for His glory and purpose that He has planeed, then I think it's safe to say we are a peple formed for Him. Therefore, in this time, in this economy, in all the things happening we will declare His praise. At least that is the call. That is going to be the onset of an awakening, of revival, when we as a church, as one united body, declare the glory of God, when declare His truth, when we declare His word, then the change will come.
