There is a trumpet sounding in the land…. Do you hear it? You’ll have to listen closely because there is so much other noise – loud noise. This trumpet sound is more subtle, but if you hear it, it will be the most powerful sound you’ll ever hear. Some call it a “still, small voice.” Others identify it as a dream or vision. Many more may even think of it as an inner “knowing.” However it comes, it heralds the same message. God is calling many to wake up to Him, to their place in the earth, and to a life of tremendous purpose.
When we choose to hear that call and to follow its leading, we may think of ourselves as different – maybe as too extreme. Yet if we lift our heads and look around, we will see many are hearing the same call. Not everyone, mind you, but many. We are not alone in our call nor in our desire to run our race with Jesus. There are many others. There have been many Christian leaders recently who have referred to a “grass roots” Christian movement taking place in our nation.
I have had the opportunity to travel to a number of places lately. It has been so encouraging to see people all around who are in touch with their Lord and dedicated to His purpose. Sometimes the groups are small, but they are doing big things. They are spending time with God and following His leading and their lives reflect that. Their prayers are being heard. Their confidence is increasing. Their relationship with God is on the rise, and they are encouraged when they find that others share their passion.
That’s the purpose for this blog: I want to bring news of the awakening church. In the days to come, I will be sharing some of the news from others who are busy in God’s field. Their ministries are varied; they are from many different cultural bents. Yet they have one thing in common: they want to see God’s purposes manifested in the earth.
Are you one of those people? Do you hear His trumpet sound? If so, know that you are not alone. There are many others. I hope you will check back often and hear about what others are doing for their Lord. Together we can make a big difference! God’s church is awakening and we are part of it! Blessings onyou and your contribution!
