Good morning church, yes we are temple the Holy Spirit, so we are the church. Church is not a Sunday morning event, it is a not a brick and mortar structure, it is you and I doing life together in the spirit and the natural. We are the church. So let me say it again, good morning church!!!!

I wanted to share with you something that I experienced this week during a time of corporate worship with my Hope UC Nashville community. Four of my favorite worship leaders were all leading together and each of them built one upon another to lead us a community into the presence of God. They worked as one unit, four voices and it was powerful. Anyone who was in the room would tell you it was like swimming in a jar of honey it was so good.

During this time together corporately, the Lord bent me over at the waist and my hands clung together and immediately I knew I had a jackhammer in my hand. I was praying in tongues with such strength I knew the Lord was breaking through something. As I continued to pray in the spirit, I continued to see this jackhammer drilling down.

I can still hear the sound of the jackhammer in the spirit even now, the Lord was drilling into what I saw as the crust of the earth. It was like an outer hard shell and he was drilling down into it. I saw the blade of the jackhammer penetrating slowing but consistently into the earth’s crust. The Lord showed me He is cracking open the crust of the earth and when it opens we are going to see and hear things we have never seen or heard before.

It can feel like what have done wrong that I can’t get a breakthrough; it can seem like this is taking so long, what is the hold up; we can self-examine ourselves into performing, rather than resting in obedience. What I saw and what the Lord is showing me is that this is not about me as an individual, but we as the nations. The Lord is cracking open, drilling down into the crust of the earth for a worldwide, international, all nations move of God.

Time is not our enemy it is our ally and what God is doing in our time on earth is a privilege of the likes we do not yet realize, but once it is acutalized, we will be praising in a way we did not know we could praise Him. Our shout will shake hell as our praise exalts the Lord God Most High who is faithful, who keeps His promises and who loves us more than we know. The jackhammer is drilling down to crack this thing wide open!
