He's the God of this City. He's the God of THIS city. He's the God of YOUR city. wherever you are, He is the God of this city. think about it. this captivates my heart. and then the song goes on to say "greater things are YET to come. Greater things! light of the darkness. hope to the hopeless. peace to the restless. there is Noone like our God. the lord has been stirring my heart, giving me such a love for this city. and let me tell you, it is definetely a heart change from the lord, because all i could ever dream about doing before was getting out of rochester and far away from it!
this new heart is causing me to dream. big. look at what might happen if the lord were to break forth like this city has never seen before. like our eyes have never seen before.
In rochester, we have the great and amazing Mayo Clinic. we have major influence. major medical influence. people coming from ALL over the world. prestigious, royalty, anyone who seeks further medical help that can't get it from where they are in the world, come to rochester! these are people who are basically coming to us as their "only hope" or "last chance". we also have IBM (international business machines). again, people coming from all over to work and train for this company. its a big deal.
this means that our city is kind of like a "melting pot" in a sense. people from every culture coming here! We have major influence in so many ways. If God were to come and drop His glory on our city, it could transform the world! like a domino effect. His glory spreads throughout the city, touches doctors and nurses who are directly working with patients, which then hits the patients, which then the patient carries the presence of God with them to their hometown or country. like a domino effect. god brings revival, it then spreads through the world. this is what im dreaming about and praying for. since i've been a little girl, this has been the cry of my heart. to see this domino effect happen throughout the world. Jesus says "every tribe and toungue will bow down and worship the lord. YES! yes!
with this dream, i dream for downloads and revelations to doctors. i dream and truely believe in my heart that there is a cure for cancer. i know that extensive research is being done, and there are a lot of theories, but i believe that God gives us all gifts and talents, and for those amazing medical professionals, He will download amazing clues and cures for incureable diseases and cancers. rochester is the brewing place for this.
If God came and wrecked this city for Him and His glory, just think of the endless possibilities of what could happen. my mind is racing thinking about it.
there are so many people that need jesus. this world needs more of jesus. so much more. i want to see this happen. I can only be responsible for myself and my actions and walk with God. but I encourage you all to just pray with me everyday for this movement to happen. for this city. for this world.
i was just talking today with someone, and we were talking about "acts of love". and we came to the conclusion that the small acts of love are always the most beautiful and thoughtful acts of love and care. im not just talking a romantic relationship kind of love. im talking about the love that you can show on a daily basis to the homeless man on the corner, or the checkout lady at target....etc. its the smile that can make the world of difference to someone. or inviting them to church; shows you care. this is something i have been more conscious of doing. the small things. it can be anything that involves putting someone else before you, their needs before your needs. even giving a sandwhich to the lady that holds the sign saying "anything helps". there are endless ways. its the small things. the small things can lead to the big things. when we are the hands and feet of the lord, that can lead to the big thing. people's perspectives changing on "christians" because we are showing them love, instead of only preaching love.
prayer. prayer can be a small thing in your mind, but in reality, in the kingdom, it is our most powerful weapon! so pray for the small things, pray for the big things. just pray. just be in constant communication with your God. there is nothing better than this.
i am babbling now. i can be done now.
my heart burns for this. He is the God of This City. Greater things are YET to come. praise god.
