It's already been three weeks here in Colorado Springs at the Wall internship. I am so amazed at how time flies and how much God has spoken to me in this short amount of time. The other night I was having ice cream at McDonald's with my two leaders (Ashley and Rico) and Rico asked me what the main thing God has taught me so far is. I had to think about it for a second. He's showed me so much about His love, His faithfulness, and His worth. He's spoken to me a lot about what it looks like to be consecrated to Him. He's asked me to give Him things that waste time and hinder me from being fully focused on Him. But I think the main thing He has been showing me, which is what I told Ashley and Rico, is that He has been giving me more of a perspective on the bigger picture of His plan. The president of EHC, Dick Eastman does mentoring sessions for us and has been telling us about how he prayed daily for decades for a 24-hour prayer room at the Jericho Center (the EHC mission's base and new location of the Watchman Training Center/Prayer room). As crazy as it seems to me, I am part of God's answer to that prayer, along with all the staff that's been involved. I'm humbled that God wants me to play a small part of this amazing prayer movement, which is truly preparing the way for His return. He has been revealing to me the reality of His kingdom and that literally He is being worshiped 24-7 by heavenly hosts. Heaven is a real place that was really part of the earth at creation and that will be restored at the end. This prayer movement is a mere reflection of what goes on day and night in heaven! God has a plan to purify His bride, the church, so that He can come back to marry her. This reality seriously blows my mind. I am humbled that he chose me to sit before Him in worship of who He is. I am also very thankful that he did!
So, it's been really good! Something else that I found out on Thursday, is that EHC is paying for our internship and the leaders to go the the Call in Sacramento, CA!!!! Dick Eastman is going to be giving out a copy of his revised version of The Purple Pig. At the Call, they will be calling for 10,000 young people to join the intercessory missionary movement, to build prayer houses in the nations! We are going to have a booth about the Wall. I think there's even a chapter in this new book about the Wall and the internship that I'm doing. I can't wait to see what God does and I'm so excited that we get to go!
So in short, my eyes are fixed on my King Jesus, who is literally sitting at the right hand of God in an actual place called Heaven, longing for the day that His relationship with His creation is restored to its fullness. And we get to be part of His plan to restore that relationship, as long as we keep on saying yes.
