Fasten Your Belt, This is Real 11-5-07

Good morning, Lord Jesus. My God, my Savior, my Lord, and King, I welcome Your Spirit here in me. ... "Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He tapped Peter on the side and woke him, saying, 'Get up quickly.' And the chains fell off his wrists. The angel said to him, 'Fasten your belt and put on your sandals.... Wrap your cloak around you and follow me.' Peter went out and followed him; he did not realize that what was happening with the angel's help was real; he thought he was seeing a vision" (Acts 12:7-9). Your heaven is invading our earth. Your power is being made perfect in our weakness. What was unseen is becoming seen; the spiritual realm is breaking in to the natural realm; things eternal are being manifested in the present as Your kingdom comes and Your will is done on earth as it is in heaven. You are breaking off the chains of doubt and unbelief as You free us into the hope and faith of a move of Your Spirit in our day that we have only imagined. This is real and the time is really here. It's time to get up from our spiritual slumber, to put on the belt of Your truth and the sandals of Your peace (Ephesians 6:14). You are opening the eyes of our hearts to see the spiritual reality beyond our natural senses, embracing the freedom and power of Your eternal truth becoming true and real to us (v. 1:18). You are healing our wounds, breaking our chains, cleansing our souls, and empowering us with Your Spirit to experience the reality of "the immeasurable greatness of (Your) power for us who believe, according to the working of (Your) great power" (v. 19). Our faith is becoming sight as Your Word is manifested in Your power. According to Your "plan for the fullness of time," these days are no longer just a vision of things to come; this is real (v. 10). In Jesus' name I pray, Amen. Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays Friends, we finished our Prayer Summit last night in Corbin, Kentucky with the altar and our hearts being filled with Spirit and power of God to be the holy and anointed body of Christ we are called to be in these exciting days!
