This is an amazing day. There is a lightness in the Spirit as He comes to lift and carry and yet even in that, it increases within me the deep longing for even more....the more of Jesus, the One for whom we cry out and long, the One in Whose presence we find fullness of joy!
It feels like a new day in the nation. Something has moved and changed, like a large tree that had fallen across the road has been removed, and a way made that was not previously accessible.
I see a nation lying motionless in the sun, like a person sunbathing on the beach. The sounds of creation are all around, and yet the sunbather lies motionless, senseless, oblivious to all that surrounds....the very things that surround are dangerous in their peace and beauty and sense of well-being.
ARISE O SLEEPER! As I look over this nation, full of the joy of the closeness of the One who lifts and carries, I feel like a deep well of tears.
The tears well up to overflowing. The heart fills with them to breaking point.
ARISE O SLEEPER!
The heart cries out before the One who in an instant can awake us all with His beautiful presence.
COME, COME, COME to Aoteoroa New Zealand.
COME with your beauty,
COME with your presence,
COME with your power,
COME with your great love....
ARISE O SUN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS WITH HEALING IN YOUR WINGS
COME, COME, O please do come..............
