Yesterday I was talking with a few others on campus about how we are anticipating a BIG move by the Lord after this season. We were asking Him for insight to see what seasons we are in (personally and as a whole) to be best prepared for what's coming. Hehe...

I received an image of a bridge and felt that He was telling us that we are going to need to be, as people of God, bridges. To connect the lower and higher realities on this campus, especially for the people who don't even know God, nor have a clue about what things are going on in the spiritual realm. They see the physical realities such as the racial tensions and the natural disasters, the interesting weather, maybe even the activities of Christians on the campus. But they don't really know what is going on... But our knowledge for the things that are going on in the spiritual realm shouldn't make us prideful for we only know what the Spirit reveals to us and because they are also His beloved who deserves to know them as well. I felt that He was emphasizing this posture of humility through the image of a bridge also- posture of bending down before Him, willing to be 'bridges' where we are ushering in His kingdom by allowing people to 'step on us' to cross to the higher reality (the spiritual, the invisible, the heavenly realm =)), as opposed to a posture of standing before a podium (not to say that that is bad but to emphasize humility).

We know that what's to come is big and we need to be prepared and care for others to be also and be ready to explain what is going on so that people on this campus will see God for who He is and be brought into the light. I encourage you guys to ask Him how it looks like personally for you in your given circumstances, community, relationships to be a bridge to bring His kingdom to them and His people to Him =)

I also felt that He was encouraging us to hold onto the 'rope' with both hands, steadily, at all times signifying the guidance of the Holy Spirit. (I think this imagery was used at IHOP sometime couple months ago). That it is going to be the Holy Spirit that will push us forward towards more of heaven day by day in the midst of so much going on and that we just need to be faithful and steady.

Can't wait to witness and be a part of His redemption of this campus =)
