"Ask of Me, and I will give you The Nations for your inheritance.
And the ends of the earth for your possession."
Psalm 8:2
This is my deepest hearts desire. The nations for my inheritance. We are on the final hour countdown, just over 24 hours and we will be leaving the place we know, for a people, a city, a nation that we do not know. A people and a nation in need of Christ, the HOPE of glory! A people and a nation that is KNOWN by my Abba Daddy, whom He loves, He sent Jesus for them! They hear His small still voice in Mandarin, just as we hear Him in English.
I have asked the Father several things over the last months. I have asked to speak Mandarin, to hear Him in Mandarin, to prophesy in Mandarin. Yes, just like the day of Pentecost when everyone heard the gospel in their own language. God is just as powerful now as He was then...so yes, I am asking for the tongue of Mandarin.
I have also asked Abba Daddy, how is it that I am to pray for this place that I do not know, this culture I cannot even begin to fathom, and He has said time and again, ask for it for your inheritance. So I ask, no, I must say I am on my face crying out for these who do not know him and yet I already love. How is that? How does HE desposit that kind of love in me? But you see it is not me, it is HIM in me that loves a people I have never met and a country that I long to call my home.
I have asked God for the rains to fall, for the harvest to be ready.
"then I will give you the rain for your land in its season,
the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine, your oil.
Deuteronomy 11:14
During worship Saturday night a very dear friend came up and said she was praying for rain to soften the land of China, that we would walk in power and plant seeds, see the white harvest. Then she said something that was amazing and crazy...so like God, she said I am praying for rain in the natural on the day you arrive to prophesy the rain in the supernatural that will occur. We have been checking the weather there and there was no rain in the forcast. When I got up this morning to see, there is now a 40% chance...
Rain God, bring your rain! Bring your power! Bring your Hope of Glory! Give me the nations for my inheritance and the tongue of Mandarin! We want to work where you work, do what we see you doing, say what we see you saying! We want more of you!
Wow! I am amazed. :) Let the rains come!!!!!
