Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising. Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side. (Isaiah 60:1-4, KJV)
It should not be any wonder as to the moral decay of this nation when you have an American Church that is Hell bent on complaining about everything from the what new worship leader dresses like all the way to who should have won the recent “Voice” contest on T.V.
Whereas the first century Church was wired to pray that the city would be won for Christ, and let us lift up so and so’s family as the father was dipped in oil lit on fire last night for being a follower of Jesus.
We have a nation where the ranking of their favorite football team drowns out the cry of the innocent ones being traded as sex slaves in the shadow of our cities or being murdered in the safety of their mothers womb.
Where are the all night prayer vigils being held, where families gather and rend the Heavens for the lost in their city?
We will get into deep debates on who should hold such and such political office, yet our streets, schools, cities and whole regions are being led into deeper and deeper spiritual darkness.
It’s time for the Bride to not only wake up, but to also Light-up and become who she has always been destined to be, a people who crush spiritual strongholds, and push the realms of darkness out of the neighborhoods, cities and entire regions.
It’s time to stop putting their money into hidden boxes or into the systems of this world hoping to hit the lottery of retirement plans and start investing into the fight on the front lines, into Kingdom stations where lives are really being transformed.
It’s time that the Bride become the Master of financial systems that bring Glory to God rather than be slaves to a worldly economic system which imprisons people to be at their mercy.
If the world were dependant upon the army of God in this nation to defend her from the invasion of the armies of darkness, well we would be in the crisis as a nation such as we are right now!!!
Th is nation needs to see a rise of the burning ones, whose tongues aren’t bridaled by the fear of man rather they are emboldened to speak the truth regardless of the cost. Jesus has asked not one of His followers to surrender to the fear of man. In fact His teachings lead us to a different direct – “You white washed tombs who have all the appearance of being clean to the outsiders, but those with Kingdom eyes bear wintess to your being dead on the inside”( Matthew 23:27 my own translation). “You brood of vipers” (Matthew 12:34-37), “You sons of Satan – you children of the Father of lies” (John 8:44). These are all words from the King of Glory’s mouth.
I am not afraid of man nor the opinions of man. I speak the truth as I see with the hopes of waking up the sleeping army of God. It is not a day in which we can have the luxury of being politically correct. There is the life of a nation and another generation at stake.
