Get Ready To Take A Journey

This is Carter Conland again today from my kitchen, bringing you another one in the series of devotionals called Why I'm Not Afraid. I'd like to entitle this one today, the Lord's put on my heart, Get Ready to Take a Journey. It was the 400th year of their captivity in Egypt, when God sent trouble into the land, all for the purpose of setting his people free and bringing them into what they would have thought was a wilderness place so that they might worship him again the way he desired that they should, and become the people that he had destined them to be. Just like the people of Israel in that day, I speak in my heart prophetically that God is preparing his church for a journey one more time. They were told to go into their houses, get the blood of the lamb on the doorposts. In other words, make sure that salvation is in your house. Make sure that everyone in your house is walking with God. They were to take the lamb, and they were to begin to partake of the lamb inside their house. And they were to eat it with both the sweet things and with the bitter things. And they were to eat it with unleavened bread. In other words, to begin to, as we are called in our generation, eat the word of God without hypocrisy. Eat the sweet, eat the bitter, eat it all. Eat it as it's written. Don't try to change it. Don't try to make the word of God say what it doesn't say. Don't just pick the sweet things out of the word of God. Read the whole bible, and read it as the word of God to you for this season in your life. And then in chapter 12 of Exodus, verse 11, it says, Thus shall you eat it with a belt on your waist and sandals on your feet and a staff in your hand. And you shall eat it in haste. It is the Lord's Passover. You shall eat it and prepare yourself to take a journey. God is going to take you and I on a journey in our generation. He is bringing us out of the land that has held us captive as his people for so long. He's bringing us out of light theological focus. He's bringing us out of self-focus. He's bringing us out of hopelessness and helplessness, that one more time we can become the people of God, bringing glory to his name in our generation. This is the joy and delight of my heart. And I know I'm not just speaking something that I'm just wishing or hoping is going to happen. It is going to happen. It's the 400th anniversary of America. And God has called us to Plymouth on October 6 of this year at 7 p.m. Eastern time till 9 p.m. Eastern time to pray and rededicate the nation one more time to him, to ask forgiveness for the things that we've done wrong and prepare for God to take us again on a journey where as his people, we can one more time bring glory to his name. My brother, my sister, start devouring the land, this sacrifice of Christ that was paid for you and I on Calvary. Get your shoes on your feet, get your belt on your waist, and get your staff in your hand because we're about to take a journey. Oh, praise God, we're about to take a journey, a journey that will bring glory to his name in the earth one more time. He is shaking the land so that the land will be forced to let his people go. Oh, God, thank you. Father, thank you for what you're doing. Thank you for this moment in history. Thank you, God, for your people that are listening today. Thank you, Lord, that we're not in our houses by happenstance. You have ordained it, preordained it for this moment in history. Give us the grace to understand it and to prepare for the journey of a lifetime. And we ask it in Jesus name. Amen. God bless you. See you again soon.
