There are so many things people ask other people to pray for. Healing, prosperity, family, marriage, children, company, church, you name the issue the request has been asked by us and to us. Praying for others is a joy, because when the answer comes God winks at you and you smile as you listen to the testimony of what God did for someone else. The cycle of blessing that comes from praying for people is a joy that is hard to describe it must be experienced.

One of the prayers that many have prayed for our nation is that people would wake up. We as a nation have a history of awakening, revival, healing, deliverance and salvation. We have seen stadiums filled, streets filled, churches filled with people who are hungry to worship, pray and know the word of God. Our history is rich with the desire for God and those seeds are still in the soil of this nation; still in the hearts of people all around you, despite what you see and hear on the news and social media.

I was praying Psalm 24 this morning and the Passion Translation speaks in such a way that it stops me in my reading to enjoy the presence of God. Listen to verse 7 “Wake up, you living gateways! Lift up your heads, you doorways of eternity! Welcome the King of Glory, for he is about to come through you.”

A nation is about to awaken and when it does God is about to come through her in a way that will even shock her. Friends, if you have never experienced God coming through you, it is an experience of the likes nothing can compare. John 4 says, “Rivers of living water will flow from your belly.” God coming through you is because God is in you. He is about to open doors in your belly that is going to water the nations and you will be in awe of what God does through you. You are the living gateway and the King of Glory is about to come through you, because He is living in you.
