Morning by Morning, March 26 - Thirsting for Our Time of Visitation Good morning, Lord Jesus. My eyes are on You. Looking and listening for Your leading. ... “Now as (Jesus) drew near, He saw the city and wept over it, saying, ‘If you had known, even you, especially in this your day, the things that make for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not know the time of your visitation’” (Luke 19:41-44). I hear Your passion for Your people on that day of that first Holy Week on Your journey to the cross for us all. How You longed for eyes to see, ears to hear, hearts to receive all You had to freely give. But they “did not know the time of (their) visitation.” Instead of peace, they would have destruction. Instead of life, they would have death. How it is true today. Your passion is the same for all people--to know You, to embrace You, to receive all You desire to freely give to all. Come move in a great visitation of Your Presence in our day. By the power of Your grace, by a mighty move of Your Holy Spirit, open eyes to see, open ears to hear, open hearts to receive. Release from Heaven the humility to admit our need of You and awaken an intensity of desire for You. Use all that feels like destruction or death or blindness or deafness or hard-heartedness of every situation in every life that desperately needs to know You and encounter You and experience Your passion and love for each of one. Let them not miss “the time of (their) visitation.” Let us not miss “the time of (our) visitation.” No matter where any of us are on our spiritual journey, may You awaken in us all a deeper hunger, a greater thirst, to know You, to encounter You, to experience You with an insatiable desire to have a visitation from You in our world and in our hearts: “And the Spirit and the bride say, ‘Come!’ And let him who hears say, ‘Come!’ And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely!” (Revelation 22:17) In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
