Arise

Arise, arise my child! 

A new season is here, though you may not sense it. 

You have been digging and working and pushing through to overcome those seemingly insurmountable obstacles that the enemy sneakily put in place to try and stop your race. But I have turned it all around for your good and you are stronger, more mature, and full of the spirit. 

Don’t you see who I’ve made you to be? 

Don’t you see that your wings are broader and ready to fly?

Lift up your head. The time has come to acknowledge who you really are and your position in the Kingdom. 

No more looking down, no more focusing on those circumstances and hurdles that you’ve already cleared. Fix your eyes on me, find again your splendour in me. Arise, shine, and I will show you the way. Try me and I won’t disappoint you. Choose to happily leap into my arms my beloved, and I will show you that the best is yet to come. 

Activation: Take some quiet time and ask Holy Spirit to show you everything you’ve conquered with his help. Then look in the spirit and see what God has made you become. Feel your strength, notice your wings. Inhale the pure air of heaven and exhale all that has been a heavy burden. Then thank and praise the Lord for the freedom of the new season you’re stepping into.

Isaiah 60:1 (ESV)

Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.

Romans 8:28 (NIV)

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. 

Isaiah 40:31 (NLT)

But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.
