Oh Glory.
So. I'm going to BC. I'm pretty incredibly excited. There are few things on my heart.
First off I'm freaked out of my mind. I'm scared of losing my family, my friends. I'm scared of missing cool oppurtunities. I'm scared I won't have enough money..etc. That being said, I know that God will provide and that I'm coming back. 8 months is not a long time at all.
I believe that is calling up this city of Edmonton. Yeah yeah you may say. It's burning in my heart. I can taste it. We really need to get on our faces and pray. We need to be spending so much time with the father that it's all we do. Sometimes, I spend the whole day in prayer. Even when I'm working, my spirit is constantly speaking in tongues and just praying for the glory to come. Honestly. I can this a hundred times. We need to learn how to listen. I firmly believe that for every hour we pray we need to spend at very very least that amount of time listening. It's amazing what God can reveal when we rest. We need to labour to get into his precious rest. Cast our pain, our cares, all our hardships, the desires of our flesh and the temptations of the world and just rest in his presence. Oh the revelations that will come. Oh and our lives will be changed. People will notice that there is something different about us. They will want to know more. Oh glory. There will be revival. We need to stop eating the fruit from past revivals that are tainted with selfishness. We need to drink from the well of God and get something for ourselves. Something new, fresh, real. It's what I crave and so desperately desire. Oh Jesus please come. Meet us where we are, give us such a desire to spend time in your presence. Even in school, continually speak to us and in our workplaces. This "Christian" thing is not a Sunday, Wednesday, Friday thing. It's a lifestyle. It's a cause.
Make us so desperate for you Jesus. Give us a passion for the lost. That they would come to know you. And not just know you. Give up their lives for you. Oh glorious, beautiful holy one. Thanks for meeting me where I am. You are so faithful. Thanks for being here. Lord, teach me to be sensitive to Holy Spirit. Make me obedient to his promptings. Even if I find it completely ridiculous. Teach me even now. I'm so hungry to know you. So desperate to see your face. I want to know you so much. Give me a passion that won't die, and a fire that won't go out. I want you. Only you. Nothing else. Give me visions and dreams of You. I long to see this city filled with You. In every corner of darkness and every home and church. Bring the church back to life. Our church is dead. SO dead. I thank you for what you are doing, I ask that you would continue to reveal and increase it. 30, 60, 100fold. I pray that you would increase my faith. I ask that I would not have to always understand, but just be obedient no matter what.
Wow. That was intense. Oh Glory! Haha.
