through this world and then slip quietly into heaven, without having
blown the trumpet loud and long for our Redeemer, Jesus Christ. Let
us see to it that the devil will hold a thanksgiving service in hell,

stand just five weeks from landing back in the states after the year
that has changed everything. With home coming sooner rather than
later, I am beginning to wonder what it will be like to be back in the states. But
that’s not what I want to dwell on. That time will come. Right now,
I am still on the race and choosing to press into what is HERE, not
there. And this is what is beating in my heart…..

veins with its love, power, and intensity. See, something has
happened. It’s drastic. It’s permanent. And it’s life-giving like none other.

than twenty four hours before boarding the plane for all that was
ahead. And now here I am. My dreams and hopes of the past are

true love of the Lover and the orphans knowing the true safety of
their Father.
I dream of my generation coming alive from their dry bones into an armythat is anointed and single-hearted in love for their King. I
dream of the dead being raised, both literally and spiritually, all
around me. I dream of demons screaming and angels rejoicing all over
this world. I dream of redemption, freedom, light, life, and glory
penetrating every dark, complacent, and dead place of this world in
such a way that the broken foundations are crumbled and the
unshakeable foundation is built to its glory once again.
you know what? I believe these dreams are coming to be. The dark,
death systems of this world, the systems of prostitution, of slavery,
and of abuse CANNOT stand against the power of His love. There is
a force and hope far greater and more powerful then they. See,
Christ is invading this place and the very foundation on which
these systems stand is crumbling.
Somethingis happening. Something silent, yet fierce. It’s deadly to the
core. Either you die or you will be killed by it. And it’s
stirring. Oh it’s stirring all right. A new beat is taking over.

freedom, of power. It’s a generation that is arising to say YES to
