It's Time to Jump
It's Time to Jump
I dreamt last week that I was scrambling around a very rugged, rocky section of coastline in the company of two younger men who will undoubtedly be significant, national leaders in the coming next/last revival.
An indescribably massive swell was rolling in from the sea, effortlessly crashing over and engulfing the huge rocks, then washing back out with undiminished force.
I said to these younger leaders that if we tried to stay on the rocks, the power of the receding rollers would kill us.
It was time to jump in and entrust ourselves and our lives to the gigantic breakers. I wondered if I would be strong enough to survive these turbulent waters; but I did not doubt that the others would be okay.
We jumped.
"Again he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I would not ford, for the water had risen, enough water to swim in, a river that could not be forded." (Ezekiel 47.5)
"The floods lift up their pounding waves. More than ... the mighty breakers of the sea, the Lord on high is mighty." (Psalm 93.3-4)
"And His breath is like an overflowing torrent, which reaches to the neck, to shake the nations back and forth in a sieve." (Isaiah 30.28)
"So they will fear the name of the Lord from the west and His glory from the rising of the sun, for He will come like a rushing stream, which the wind of the Lord drives." (Isaiah 55.19)
It's time to jump. It's time to jump off the "rocks" of that religion which is all about what we can do, and not about who He is. It's time to jump into the dangerous yet life-giving turbulence and tumult of the next/last Holy Spirit revival.
