Revolution


5-18-2013

Morning:
I have blotted out your transgressions
Like a cloud
And your sins like
Mist;
Return to me, for I have redeemed you.
Sing, O heavens,
For the Lord has done it;
Shout, O depths of the
Earth;
Break forth into singing,
O mountains,
O Forest, and every tree in it!
Isaiah 44:22-23a

Prayer:
--Thank you for seeing my sins, forgiving me, and wanting me anyway
--I love that you’re so incredible that all Creation shouts your name
--If the trees and the mountains do it, why aren’t we??
--Trees can’t even see, but all your wonders are laid out in front of us and we still hide your word.
--We let embarrassment, persecution, and fear of losing our reputation silence our vision and our voice of an all-consuming God
--I pray for more than a revival, I pray for a revolution
--I pray we would cast off the chains of wanting to fit in and not offend anybody, and we would begin to proclaim your name loudly.
--I pray for the strength and wisdom to start leading people in this revolution
--Put my focus off of me and onto you.
--I pray for the gift of learning languages quickly, so that I may share this revolution with other parts of the world.
