I have this sense that the heavens are pent up as if about to burst. There is power there waiting to be let loose - the day of a mighty outpouring is coming - but God is waiting to hear us tell Him together we really want it.
Brothers, as I read of past awakenings I found myself saying to Him on behalf of the Church, "we miss you." But do we? Do we miss Him and long for Him?
Some of you haven't been with us in a long time. Covid has thrown a lot of us into confusion and there may be other reasons for your absence. Would you consider making this a priority even just once a month (if that is all that you can manage)? Would you consider inviting others who are similarly burdened for revival?
I want you to know that I do not write out of a fleshly desire for numbers. I am looking forward to tomorrow night with expectation because I believe our Lord Jesus will meet us. Whether our numbers are great or few it is enough that He is there. I write rather out of a burden for Him. This morning in prayer I felt such a deep aching sadness for Him, that in these times of spiritual declension, lukewarm religion and apostasy so few (here or elsewhere) are rousing themselves to take hold of Him.
Our time is running out. Let us redeem the time because the days are evil.
