My sweet LORD,
Oh how I long to be in your presence, to sit before your feet. To truly rest without the sin of this world in and around me. Father, I wait for you. I wait anxiously for you to come--I know it's soon. As hard as it is to be away from home, I trust one thing: You are faithful. You know more than I know. You see more than I see. Your ways are so much higher than mine. I belong to you. I desire for you to use my life to glorify you alone. Lord, forgive me for my selfishness, forgive me for my anger, forgive me for living half in the world and half out. Forgive me for my doubt, my guilt, my complaints, my shame, my filth. Jesus, on my knees I pray that you would make me a reflection of you. Move me. Guide me. Use me. Break me.
I see your love for these kids, I feel it. Holy Spirit, consume the homes of these sweet children. Prepare their hearts even now to be radically changed at camp this summer. Lord, rock them, shake them, move them. Lord DELIVER them in YOUR name. Father, I pray that your army will literally rise from the ashes--that these children will stand in your name, strong and mighty. That you will hand them your sword, place on them your belt, protect them with your shield, and seal them with your helmet. Cover them in your love. Jesus, FIGHT for your children.
I pray with all my heart for the volunteers. I pray that you would shake their very beings. I pray that you would open and soften their hearts. Remove the wall the devil has created before their eyes and ears so that they would see the reality of your kingdom here on earth. Open their eyes to see the brokenness and pain, but ALSO your love and your spirit deeply invested in this country. Jesus, hand each of them the task to be YOUR hands and YOUR feet while they are here with these kids. Speak to them in a clear voice. Bring them to their knees before you, that you would show them your glory. Lord, USE them to build your army. USE them to accomplish your task. USE them to fight against our enemy for your kids. Lord, penetrate their hearts with your hand. Show THEM how much you really love them. Consume their hearts. Rock their world.
You are everything. You are never changing. You are faithful. You are Abba. You are worthy. You are power. You are strong. You are love.
Break every chain. An army is rising. In your name.
