Good Morning Sunshine! It’s Time For You To Open Your Mouth And Pray! 

Luke 19:40-44 AMP ~ “Jesus replied, “I tell you, if these [people] keep silent, the stones will cry out [in praise]!” [41] As He approached Jerusalem, He saw the city and wept over it [and the spiritual ignorance of its people], [42] saying, “If [only] you had known on this day [of salvation], even you, the things which make for peace [and on which peace depends]! But now they have been hidden from your eyes. [43] For a time [of siege] is coming when your enemies will put up a barricade [with pointed stakes] against you and surround you [with armies] and hem you in on every side, [44] and they will level you to the ground, you [Jerusalem] and your children within you. They will not leave in you one stone on another, all because you did not [come progressively to] recognize [from observation and personal experience] the time of your visitation [when God was gracious toward you and offered you salvation].”

Sometimes what God has done for you is so completely praiseworthy, but you fail to notice it, and you miss out on the perfect opportunity to praise and worship the Lord. But today, you will cry out to God in praise so that the rocks don’t cry out on your behalf.

You are so much like the children of old, you have not been truly discerning the seasons that you are in, you have eyes, but you don’t see, you have ears, but you don’t hear, and you have a heart, but you have not recognized that Jesus Christ is coming! Because if you had we would be more mindful of our prayer life! You have failed to discern the day of His visitation! The distraction of this world today is designed to pull you away from God, it uses people, places, and things that are pleasing to your eye gates to draw you into sin, making you desire less of God and more of the world, it has blurred your vision, and this makes it hard for you to see and hear the prompting of the Holy Spirit.

This scripture is also a reminder that you need to have discernment and discipline to pray like you never have before, so that you do not miss the time of your visitation from God! God is moving upon your land in a distinctive way, and it’s time to rebuild your prayer life, for when destruction hits you will know how and what to pray and you will be prepared for when Jesus comes! I know that you hear so much about things being new in ministry, new this and new that, but what have you heard about prayer? When will prayer be the main focus and not the newest person or pastor that has emerged! All of this sounds good, but it doesn’t sound like Prayer! It’s Time To Pray! Now I’m not saying that you are not praying but what I’m saying is I’m not seeing the urgency of prayer, prayer that is breaking chains and strongholds and seeing signs, wonders and miracles! There needs to be a Sense of Urgency in Prayer and for Prayer! 

It is time to gird up your loins and make haste to Pray, in this hour you need to be close to God and you must be disciplined and deliberate, so that you are not drawn away from God because of the environment that you live in that does everything to keep you distracted and distant from Him! It’s time for your spiritual discernment to rise, for you need to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit and walk in the coming Revival that is about to take place! In order to do this, you must be about the Word of God and be sons and daughters of prayer! You must be able to discern the times and seasons when God will come back to visit His children, for He is coming back! 

God is calling you to His holy house, to be in prayer and in fellowship with Him. It’s time to gather together with other prayer warriors and be on one accord and pray.  As you enter, you will be ushered into prayer with God. You do know that prayer is the pulse and heartbeat of every humble servant of God! It’s Praying Time! It’s time for you to open up your mouth and pray and worship God so that the rocks don’t do it on your behalf. So, today, stop, drop and pray! 

Let’s Pray:

Father, Thank You! Father, teach me to pray and that I will pray according to Your Will. Father, I pray for greater discipline and discernment that I recognize the times and seasons that I’m living in and that I will know how to pray and what to pray for! Father, I desire more of You and Your Word, fill me with Your Presence and Your Spirit! Father, please remove the scales from my eyes, touch my heart so that I may understand, and quicken my ears to hear You, so that I won’t miss Your Second Coming, because I’m so wrapped up in what I want! Father, I pray that I will pray with a sense of urgency in my prayer life, to pray that chains and strongholds are being broken off of our lives and that we encounter Your signs, wonders and miracles in Prayer as I pray. In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen and Thank You Jesus! 

Blessings…
