Today’s Reading:
Isaiah 55
Ho! Every one who thirsts, come to the waters;
Isaiah 55:1-3
And you who have no money come, buy and eat.
Come, buy wine and milk
Without money and without cost.
2 “Why do you spend money for what is not bread,
And your wages for what does not satisfy?
Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good,
And delight yourself in abundance.
3 “Incline your ear and come to Me.
Listen, that you may live;
And I will make an everlasting covenant with you,
According to the faithful mercies shown to David.
The Spirit of the Lord says,
Change, change, change is all around. Change is in the air. Change is on the leaves. Change is running as living currents underground.
A place was born and established in the hearts of men who love Me and who love truth. It’s a place people come to get served truth, to taste truth, to delight in truth. And it is a place they stay to enjoy truth and watch truth play out on the big screen. It is a reliable place. My lovers are reliable ones to go to to receive fresh tastes of truth, to experience truth alongside of, and to witness yet other truths playing out in real time.
I Am setting up my lovers, My solid ones, My unwavering ones, the ones who have stood and withstood — these I Am setting up as stations of refreshing and truth in the desert, in a dry and weary place where there is little truth to be found. These ones who have stood and withstood are like flowering plants and watering stations in the desert. They bear life and hope. They bear fruit and attract many to themselves. For those who are parched and fainting from lack of truth, they will be like an emergency relief station where truth can be found, can be taken in and can revive the parched and weary soul.
4 “Behold, I have made him a witness to the peoples,
Isaiah 55:4-5
A leader and commander for the peoples.
5 “Behold, you will call a nation you do not know,
And a nation which knows you not will run to you,
Because of the Lord your God, even the Holy One of Israel;
For He has glorified you.”
These watering stations of truth in the desert, My lovers who have stood and withstood, are also beautiful welcoming places for these weary and parched and hungry ones to receive their daily bread. They teach the Word with strength, with the weight of experience and with gentleness — to those fainting with hunger, to the ravenous ones and to the peckish alike.
The ones who have stood and have withstood, I Am planting and activating as watering stations of truth and refreshing, as kitchens of the fresh baked bread of My Word. These lovers of Mine who have stood and withstood, they are My revival stations for the weary, for the wounded, for the dry, the thirsty, the hungry and the fainting.
These ones who have stood and withstood are walking, living, breathing revival centers overflowing as fountains of crystal clear waters of truth and serving the comforting, delightful, essential daily bread of My Word. This is how revival is breaking out, and this is how revival will be experienced. This is how My Great Revival of the Ages will work.
How to Respond
- Purify your heart before the Lord.
- Simplify and clarify your priorities and re-order them with Him.
- Pray, Holy Spirit come. It is You who draws the weary, the thirsty, those longing for a taste of truth and the satisfying filling of Your Word. Thank You for standing alongside us and helping us be ones who have stood and withstood. Thank You for Your refining and Your purifying. Thank You for making us part of Your work and Your plan in the Great Revival of the Ages.
- Declare, the Lord is drawing many weary, thirsty and hungry souls to Himself. He is using the people He has prepared in the wilderness and in the desert to revive, nourish and disciple these wanderers, rebels and lone rangers. Holy Spirit has already initiated the Revival of the Ages, and we get to be a part of it.
- Decree, I will stand. I am one who bears truth and speaks only truth. I am one who is available to the Lord and will readily serve those He brings across my path — to introduce them to Him, to bring them truth, and to bring them the Word and consistent discipleship. I will answer the call of the Lord and take my place, do my part in His Revival of the Ages.
