Hear the Spirit

“He who has an ear let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches” (Revelations 2:7).  The Holy Spirit is speaking and working in the Church like never before.  The Church is going through a metamorphosis.  It seems as though the struggles and trials that she has experienced have occurred for the purpose of bringing her into the majesty and glory that God has purposed for the Church from the beginning of time.  Jesus Christ is not coming back to earth for a beaten down, broken apart, defeated Church.  He is coming back for a powerful, overcoming, glorious, victorious Church.  It is time to rise up and show forth the glory of God, “Arise, shine; for your light has come.  And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.  For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people; but  the Lord will arise over you and His glory will be seen upon you” (Isaiah 60:1-2).  In these last days, there are and will be days of great darkness.  However, the Church of Jesus Christ is going to shine as never before with the glory of God.
