Few things have given me as much joy in this life as those seasons when, in studying His word, the Spirit of the Lord opens my mind and the Scriptures come to life and blossom right before my eyes.
Beloved, there is so much life in His word. Let's not neglect it.- Joel RichardsonThursday, March 31, 2022

“Though the fig tree should not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail and the fields yield no food, the flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD; I will take joy in the God of my salvation.” -Hab. 3
The Bible assumes God’s sovereignty throughout. It neither grows nor diminishes. He rules over all. No need to wait for it. The Kingdom of God passages in the NT speak of something very different: the coming restoration of the kingdom of David in Jerusalem. - Bill Scofield

Though the heavens are closed in this age, so to speak, they will be opened in the age to come; and the darkness of sinful humanity will be exposed and overcome by the glory of God. As with other aspects of divine sovereignty, historical revelations of divine glory point to their eschatological conclusion, based upon their protological introduction. Consequently, the gift of the Spirit, and the glory therein (cf. 2 Cor 3:17-18; 4:4-7), gives us a faint glimpse, as "in a mirror dimly" (1 Cor 13:12), into the age to come.

The greatest miracle in the world is not raising the dead. I’ve seen critical miracles, but I want to tell you something right here: that the greatest miracle in the world is not getting withered legs straightened out, and cross-eyes straightened, and deaf ears unplugged.
The greatest miracle in the world is that God can take an unholy man out of an unholy world, make that unholy man holy, put him back in an unholy world, and keep him holy. Only the Gospel of the grace of God can do that. - Leonard RavenhillFriday, March 18, 2022

The reason that intercession is still a niche within the Church rather than a core identity of the Church is because we still imagine our societal problems are solvable via activism, leadership development, and strategic thinking. The Divine discipline of a loving Father, therefore, allows us to go our way and try to solve the complex problems of a sinful and fallen world through our own methodologies. Meanwhile, the decline of humanity and western society accelerates.
The Father knows, at a certain point, the complexity of human brokenness and sin will far surpass our ability to raise awareness, pass legislation, develop leaders, or formulate growth strategies. He waits patiently for us to finally appeal to Him as our only true hope. His House will be a House of Prayer, His people will be a people of intercession, and a global prayer movement will be born out of the revelation of a people who see no other way forward to justice and societal change apart from His ultimate intervention and judgments. -David SlikerThursday, March 10, 2022
