How Is It Going?


How is it going with you? Everyone I know who is truly following Christ is having lots of trouble. God is doing His final refining before He pours out a huge wave of the Holy Spirit. He is getting us ready.

Are you fighting His work in you, or are you spending time with Him to get closer and find out what He wants from you? You can see some of this all wrong, you know, and start beating on the devil. Better than that, you can realize that God Himself is doing His pruning in your life. You can take some time to ask Him what He wants you to learn.

I sure do not want to go around this mountain again, do you? Father, show us what it is You want us to know, change, and understand. Refine us so that we are ready for Your great outpouring. We do not want to miss a single thing.

We take this time of difficulty and draw close to You as we would draw close to a loving father. Protect us from the enemy and protect us from ourselves. We thank You and bless You for Your great and tender mercies. Amen.
