Are the rocks warming up?


If you haven't turned on the news lately, well...you probably should. We are living in the last days. If you didn't realize that before the latest out of Washington, well you should at this point. We are watching scripture play out before our eyes, things that God said would happen in the "last days" are occurring. The fence most found comfortable is becoming uncomfortable. It's time to choose this day who will be the One you serve. Not sure what you are serving? Look at where you are pouring your time and heart into? Are you after the things of this world or to make a difference that will last longer than you will?

This verse came up in my Spirit Friday as I just took a minute to let Him pour into my weary soul( A few minutes in His presence truly is better than a thousand days elsewhere). I don't want the rocks warming up...the enemy is after the praise of the sold out, surrendered Child of the Most High because the praise of a surrendered heart..unleashes and unlocks a power that is freedom! Now is not the time for Children of God to run back to comfortable or to hide from what's going on in the world...It's time for us to be the church outside of the four walls and to show this world the difference His love makes. We have been silent too long...We have kept the truth inside the four walls we call church, when it's living on the inside of us. There are hungry people on your path every day.....what are you feeding them? You can only pour into someone else when you have allowed God to pour into you.....you can't give from an empty depleted cup. (You may be praying for a ministry opportunity and God is drawing you to spend more time with Him...time spent with Him first allows you to minister from the overflow to others)

God fan the flame that you have lit and may Your praise ever be on our lips....Forgive us for being silent for way too long. May we always speak your truths and may the rocks never need to warm up because You are rising up an army of Your children to march forward in battle and to speak life to this generation.
