God gave me '100 days' in my spirit. And when I counted 100 days
from 26 March when the lockdown started in South Africa I came to
the 4th of July, which is Independence Day in the US.
Now it doesn't matter where in the world you are, we all know that
4th of July is symbolic of independence. And that was so
profound for me. God is molding us in this time, He wants us to
conform to be more and more like Him during this time. He wants us
to be who we are in the Spirit, because that person will live on
forever and have a specific purpose in the life to come. But He
wants us to grow into that person now already, because then we can
have a profound impact on this world! He wants us to use this 100
days to become more and more the person that He wants us to be, a
person of light, love, charity, hope, courage, joy, mercy, grace
and compassion. He wants us to use this time wisely, so that at the
end of the 100 days, we would have grown significantly in Him,
independent from this world, and more intertwined in the spiritual
world.
He gave me the following text verses for this time:
"Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of
the deaf shall be unstopped. Then the lame shall leap like deer and
the tongue of the dumb sing." Isaiah 35:5, 6
This verse was meant to be taken literally by the Jews, because
all of this will be signs that the Messiah has come. Jesus indeed
gave sight to the blind, hearing to the deaf, He raised the lame to
walk again and He opened the mouths of the dumb. He was wonderful
and healed all who came to Him.
And today God gives these verses to us to be used on a spiritual
level.
God wants to open the eyes of the people spiritually. He wants
people to see who they are in the spirit. He wants them all to grow
in their spirit man, because He knows once they do, they will be
unstoppable in the natural. They will have a profound impact on
this world. He also want them to look at the world differently, to
see the world as He sees it, to look beyond the negative, but into
the spiritual and what He is doing at the moment in the world.
God wants people's spiritual ears to be opened. People are
normally so busy, rushed and under a lot of pressure, that they
don't hear His still voice calling out to them. He wants people to
be still and to know that He is God. He wants to talk to them, to
direct their lives and to give them guidance on the pathway ahead.
They simply need to stop running and hear what He wants to say to
them.
He wants those that have been 'lame' in the spirit to rise up
and do what He has called them to do. He wants those who were
reluctant to give or to do the right thing, to stand up and be
counted. He wants them to be His hands and feet. He wants them
reaching out to others and to give them hope.
Then God also wants our mouths. He wants our mouths to glorify
Him, to exalt Him on high. He doesn't want our mouths to spread
negativity. Rather He wants us to encourage others with our mouths
and to shout praises to His Name, as He knows that praise and
worship is a very power tool in the hands of a believer.
I encourage you to allow the Lord to work in your life, to open
your spiritual eyes, to hear what He wants to tell you, to then do
what He wants you to do and to praise Him all the way, exalting Him
and encouraging others in the process.
Then this following word will come true in your life, it is a
promise from Above:
"The wilderness and the wasteland shall be glad. And the
desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose. It shall blossom
abundantly and rejoice, even with joy and singing." Isaiah 35:1,
2
In other words, those areas in your life that was a wilderness
and wasteland or your future that might look like one, will no
longer be. The desert will start to blossom like a rose and in your
rejoicing and praising of God, you will have in abundance. All
glory on High!!
God is always with us, He never left us nor forsook us, He is
here. Allow Him to do His perfect work in you. He wants to. He
wants to lead you by the still waters; He wants to anoint your head
with oil until it overflows. Allow Him to. He has a future and a
hope for you. Hold on to that. Grow with Him and give Him free
reign to change in your life what He wants to change. It will not
be a pleasant process and it might hurt, but oh boy, the benefits
that will come will be glorious and you will be so glad. A diamond
is only formed out of hard ship. Your time to shine will come, it
is near, keep on keeping on. He is with you!
Father thank you so much for this
wonderful word. Have your way in my life; mold me to become who You
created me to be. I want to, I give over. Help me to see
spiritually, help me to hear clearly, help me to do what You want
me to do and help me to speak only Your truth and Word! I glorify
You and praise Your Name. Amen
