Cindy Jacobs came this week to stoke up the fire, it worked!! One of the things which really challenged me was the passion she had for souls. Over the last few months I felt a growing desire to win souls again.

We had a prayer meeting on Tuesday morning, we were asking God just to speak to us about the weekend I began to feel a burden about how the harvest was ready and we just had to go and get them. I began crying out to God for my unsaved friends it was God praying through me. I knew when the burden had passed that God had done something in the Spirit.

I have been really challenged over the last few weeks about the issue of abortion. Sometimes we want to avoid the pain because if we feel the pain we might have to do something about it. Its almost like if you can smell the smell of death you will be chellenged to do something about it, to try and make a difference. Picture this: tiny lightbulb sized boxes which fill a large section of the morgue in a hospital. This is where a foetus ends up when life has been plucked away. It is then placed in these tiny boxes without value or worth!

This weekend the Holy Spirit gave me a picture of a mighty river with hundreds and hundreds of babies floating down it. The river was red from blood and dirt. The babies then started to cry out. They were drowning and crying out to be saved. The Holy Spirit then said “who will save my children..?”

God hears the cries of His children and seeks someone who will hear their cry and stand in the gap to make a difference.
I could feel the heart of God and His burden for His children. Will you hear the cry? Will you feel the pain? Will you answer the call?

Heb 4:12 The word of God is living and powerful, sharper than any two edged sword,piercing even to the division and the soul and spirit, and joints and marrow, and is a discerner of thoughts and intents of the heart.

Ex 15:3 The Lord is a man of war

Deut 32:42 I will make My arrows drunk with blood, And my sword shall devour flesh, with the blood of the slain and the captives, from the heads of the leaders of the enemy.

Deut 33:29 Happy are you O Israel!Who is like you a people saved by te Lord, The shield of your help And the sword of your majesty!Your enemies shall submit to you, and you shall tread down their high places.

Our friday night chapel meeting was amazing for me as we started off before it started really warring in the Heavens for the service and then during the service when we were worshipping I saw these angels with 6ft swords with truth written on them. There was an army of them and they were slaying the enemy.Before that God gave me a word from Ps 12:6The Lords words are pure. In the message it talks about cutting off the enemies lying lips. So for me this week has been really about fighting in the heavenlies for this generation to be saved and I know God is doing big andawesome things.

Recently in my daily devotionals and on Fireschool, I have felt God challenge me as to what foundation I am building my life upon. Many people build up foundations and place their trust and security in things such as jobs, finances and family. And although God wants us to have these things and be happy with these things, they are not to be the main foundation in our life. God has challenged me more and more that I need to build my foundation in Him. That my one passion should be to seek His face and glory daily, and then out of that build everything else with His guidance. Matthew 6vs33 says, Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and then all these things will be added on to you. And that is exactly what I want to do. To seek first His kingdom at all times, in regards to communion with him, and in seeing His kingdom established on earth in practical ways, showing love, meeting needs etc. And hope this challenge to me will become a challenge to you also.

When Nehemiah heard that the walls were down and the gates were burnt in Jerusalem, he wept and cried out. Nehemiah felt the pain of God’s chosen city being in ruins. The walls of this nation are down and the gates are burnt, but do I grieve? Is there a pain that arises from within?

A challenge has come to us to embrace the pain of the nation. William Wilberforce took up that challenge by embracing, even pursuing, the pain of slavery. He endured great opposition and it cost him much, including his health. But the abolition of slavery burned within him and so he remained steadast to the cause.

A call has gone out to rebuild the walls of this nation, and to stand in the gap. The walls can not be rebuilt in a day. Therefore, it wll take endurance and strength to push through for that call. Am I willing to lay it all down, to be poured out as a drink offering no matter what? Will I embrace the burden of the nation? Will I hear God’s cry to stand and rebuild? The choice is mine. It is also yours. So, let us accept the call!
