*flash back: origionally written july 11 2008*
so just a lil disclaimer before you read this, you need to know that this is like uber long and even pretty serrious. haha...i know for once in my life i'm not being a total goob. :)
so i don't really know what's going on right now, but God is stirring in my heart -- BIG time. i don't know what He's up to, what it is that He's stirring in my heart....but it's something....and it's BIG. the sanctus real song comes to mind at the moment: "whatever your doing inside of me, it feels like chaos, yet somehow there's peace. it's hard to surrender to what i cannot see. but i'm giving into something heavenly." maybe Jesus is on His way to make His second stop here on earth. (i mean it is getting closer each day, right? one huge WHHHOOOO HOOOO by the way! :D) but i also know that part of this feeling in my heart is because things in my own personal walk with Him are being shaken around, broken up and stretched out. but i'm also pretty much 100% sure of is that a spiritual awakening, revival and a revolution world wide is underway. but whatever it is...i feel a really strong spiritual tention in my spirit.
i see so much crap in this world, and it just makes me wanna puke till i have nothing left to spill. human traffiking. terroirism. abuse. hate. anger. corrupt laws, governments and polotics. violence. natural disasters. selfishness. famine. rape. war. grudges. materialism. brokeness. it's like the army of hell is just totally having its way with this world. like all hell acutally has broken loose. and i wanna do something about it to stop it, make it better. but i don't know what to do or where to start.
so right about now you're probably thinking "woa lin! ...since when did you get all like...ya know...negative and stuff...that last paragraph was heavy."
well see there's where the revolution begins!!! :D because right now, today, friday, july11, 2008 at 8:47 pm i'm saying NO! i'm giving satan a HUGE helping of my glaser stubborn side...for LIFE!!! :) i'm not going to stand for all his junk any more. as long as i have my at least one of my lungs, blood, my heart and the Holy Spirit inside of me, i fully intend on being one of satans worst nightmares next to Jesus! (you laugh, i'm serrious! :D) i'm going to dare to dream GOD-sized dreams and trust that we can do ALL things through CHRIST, like how we're told in Phillipians 4:13. (YES, ALL THINGS!!!...like...ya know... changin the flippin WORLD!!)
but there's always hope for this world because there's always JESUS. i see healing, resoration, revival, revolution and renewing on the way. i see our generation getting out there and getting all crazy and messed up for God. i see satan and all his followers getting massively stomped buy Jesus and a bunch of His freaks. i see believers all over the place getting some passion behind their walks with GOD and building their relationship with Him. i see our generation rising up in holy courage, defiance, devotion, endourance and love and answering the call that God has given them...whatever that may look like, whatever that call may be, wherever that may be. i see and feel the Spirit of God being poured down on us till we're just DOUSED. i see all of Heaven breaking loose. i see a spiritual d-day happening soon and this WORLD is our normandy.
but to make this happen, we've gotta be united, and love has to always be prority. we've gotta shut up and love, swallow some pride and serve, and get over it and forgive. we have to focus on eternal things and store up treasures in Heaven. and i really probably shouldn't be talking here, because i suck at doing all that half the time myself. but i really believe that's a key to making this thing happen. we don't have to be perfect at it. but we do have to manage to do those things long and well enough so that people see Jesus in us. we've gotta start with the little things, or else it becomes to much. i mean shoot. look at Jesus example. half the stuff in His ministry was just loving on people and ministering to one person at a time. but guess what? THE WORLD HAS NEVER BEEN THE SAME!!! THE REVOLUTION STARTED THEN...with just ONE MAN and 11 of his best friends finding whoever else they could get to join! ok...granted...that one man was GOD! :) but He has also given us His Spirit - the very Spirit of GOD HIMSELF- to carry on this work. (Phillipians 4:13 what??? :D) so i'm feelin' it...and i'm pretty sure that satan serriously needs to be watching his back these days!! :)
i ask you to join this revolution with me and fight by all that you hold dear. stand with me and get involved in the battle. fight for the cross. fight for your family. fight for the sake of righteousness. fight for all the unsaved souls. fight for your friends and loved ones. fight for the next generation and the little children that have captured special places in your heart. fight because HE LIVES!! fight for the KINGDOM of GOD! i promise, there's nothing more satisfying than pouring all you have into something bigger than yourself!
ok...so here's a few songs that basically sum up all i'm trying to say... :) hope you like em!
'Hosanna' - Hillsong United
I see the King of Glory, coming on the clouds with fire,
the whole earth shakes, the whole earth shakes.
I see His love and mercy, washing over all my sin,
the people sing, the people sing.
Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest
I see a generation, rising up to take their place,
with selfless faith, with selfless faith.
I see a near revival, stirring as we pray and seek,
we're on our knees, we're on our knees.
Heal my heart and make me clean,
open up my eyes to the things unseen,
show me how to love like You have loved me.
Break my heart for what breaks Yours,
everything I am for the kingdom's cause,
as I walk from earth into eternity.
Brandon Heath - Give me Your eyes (chorus)
Give me your eyes for just one second.
Give me your eyes so I can see.
Everything that I keep missing.
Give me your love for humanity.
Give me your arms for the ones broken hearted.
The one's that are far beyond my reach.
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten.
Give me your eyes so I can see.
Britt Nicole - Set the world on fire
I wanna set the world on fire
Until it’s burning bright for You
It’s everything that I desire
Can I be the one You use?
Chorus:
I, I am small but
You, You are big enough
I, I am weak but
You, You are strong enough to
Take my dreams
Come and give them wings
Lord with You
There’s nothing I can not do
Nothing I cannot do
I wanna feed the hungry children
And reach across the farthest land
And tell the broken there is healing
And mercy in the Father’s hands
Chorus:
My hands my feet
My everything
My life, my love
Lord, use me
I wanna set the world on fire
I wanna set the world on fire, yeah
Chorus:
I’m gonna set the world on fire
Set the world on fire
Sanctus Real - Whatever You’re Doing
From the album We Need Each Other
It’s time for healing, time to move on,
it’s time to fix what’s been broken too long
Time to make right what has been wrong;
it’s time to find my way to where I belong
Chorus:
There’s a wave that’s crashing over me, and all I can do is surrender
Whatever You’re doing inside of me
It feels like chaos, but somehow there’s peace
And it’s hard to surrender to what I can’t see, but I’m giving in to something heavenly
Time for a milestone, time to begin again, re-evaluate who I really am
Am I doing everything to follow Your will or just climbing aimlessly over these hills?
So show me what it is You want from me
I give everything – I surrender
Chorus:
Time to face up, clean this old house
Time to breathe in and let everything out that I’ve wanted to say for so many years
Time to release all my held back tears
Whatever You’re doing inside of me
It feels like chaos, but I believe …
You’re up to something bigger than me
Larger than life, something heavenly
Whatever You’re doing inside of me
It feels like chaos, but now I can see
This is something bigger than me
Larger than life
Something heavenly, something heavenly
Time to face up, clean this old house
Time to breathe in and let everything out
