How long must we meddle in this world without purpose? How much longer can a soul go without direction? How can a being survive without knowing its destiny?
The keys to our fate are held by His mighty hands. We are not of this world but since we are here now we must seek out what we must do in the mean time. There is much to be done and only a few willing to work. We must rise up and awaken. We must shake the dust off and climb off the shelf. We must rise from the valley of the dried up bones and continue to march like the army that we are.
This is not our home. This is not our eternal dwelling. This is only a passing phase. Soon, God will raise his children and then we will occupy the place we are destined for. "All who listen, listen carefully, for I come and I come soon."
The trumpet is sounding, the angels are singing. He is near. Let Him not find you idle, let him find you working as He asks.
The time has come to rise up. Rise up. RISE UP! Awaken! Take your cross and continue down your path. Let not the enemy break your spirit, your will, your heart. Above all things guard your heart. Be strong in the Lord. Be valiant. Be joyful, for the joy of the Lord is our strength.
Rise up, Church. Stop preaching to the choir and start preaching to those who have yet to hear of the living God. The God that died and rose from the dead. The God that loves you and me. The God that saved our souls. Rise up, rise up, rise up for it time to do God's work.
Will you beckon His call?
-Shalom
