[This reflection was published in the weekly news bulletin of Horley Baptist Church, 20/Sep/2020]
Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us. [Ephesians Chapter 3 V 20]
‘Friday evenings at HBC’ is always a blessing and at the moment we have been working through a book called, “The Prophetic Warrior” by Emma Stark. In her book Emma has been encouraging us to listen to God and move in the prophetic.
As I listened to Jesus this morning this is what I felt He was saying:-
“I want you to know that I have chosen you for such a time as this, that you will know how to mount up with wings as eagles, to run and not grow weary, to walk and not faint. I have chosen you, you are my precious child, I don’t want you to remain in the confines of a coffee cup but I want you to be strong and do exploits.
This is the day, this is the hour to move out in faith.
Those around you are dying because they do not know my love.
This is the time to be released from self-pity and venture forth into the unknown with the greatest weapon you have, which is my love. My love can conquer mountains and produce the most precious fruit, full of abundance, full of goodness and sustenance.
Share my love with those who are needy, hungry and lonely, just as I shared an abundance of bread on the hillside with those who were hungry and in need of healing.
People will wonder where this love comes from and then you can give them the answer, then is the time to speak of me, your Lord and Saviour.
Treasure my words in your heart for out of them will come a well spring of life.
This can become a new adventure full of grace and truth. When many are closing their doors though fear, I am opening a new door of hope that will let my light into many homes and set people free to follow me in a way I intended them to live, in abundance and selflessness.
Do not be afraid my child for it is my pleasure to give you the Kingdom.”
Hope this blesses you,
Keep rejoicing, love, Chris
