By now we are all recovering after the election and settling in on future perspectives. Some may be happy, others not so much. I have chosen to rejoice and have personally committed to pray for our president and legislature. Folks, we must give ourselves to prayer on their behalf if we are to see better days ahead. I believe we have some hard times ahead, but never before have I felt the anticipation of what God is about to do. I attended a service last night where a wonderful prophetic woman was ministering and it totally blessed me. She spoke on the blood of Jesus and then prayed for the people attending. We need the revelation of what that shedding of blood means to us. We are redeemed! We can always rejoice in that. The Lamb that shed His blood is in heaven at the right hand of the Father ever interceding for us. He is ready at the appointed time to take the Book and open the seals that will be the beginning of the end of time as we know it. He is coming back for His bride! Just as He lived, died, rose again and ascended into heaven, He assured the disciples He would come back to get us. Have you ever been left waiting for someone to pick you up and they were late? It can be so frustrating and disconcerting, not knowing if something has happened to them or if they have forgotten you. I have been in that situation many times. I could feel my blood pressure rising and would have to get a hold of myself to keep from being worried or angry. Well, I can assure you from the Word of God that one day the clouds will part and He will come! Just like the parable of the virgins, however, He may be delayed. Only the Father knows the day or the hour but I believe we can know the season. In Thessalonians it tells us we are not to be in darkness about His return as we are children of the light. So once again I admonish all of us to be watchful, be prayerful and rejoice in His soon return. In the mean time there is much work to do. Let us be about the Father's business. Let us not grow weary in well doing. When Jesus left He said He would not leave us comfortless. Precious Holy Spirit is our comforter, guide, advocate, encourager and friend. He will guide us to truth. We must depend on Him until the return of our Lord.
Blessings,
