it happens when we watch movies like Braveheart, Gladiator, and 300. it happens when honor and dignity are oppressed. it happens when against all odds, there is still something to fight for. it happens when in the face of certain death, we face it, standing tall and without flinching. a rising up, an awakening of an ancient spirit that has been rocked to sleep by technology, soft shirts and tv. it wakes and we feel alive.
it used to happen like that for believers. when we believed that what we had was a warrior spirit from a warrior God. it used to happen when we were on the fray of culture causing the very governments who were repressing us to be scared of our confidence in something other than. it used to happen when the attacks came, and the sureness of life would come only if we would just deny.
there is a rumbling. from deepest of places. a rumbling that will not be denied nor contained.
as we return, may we be steadfast, hungry and holy. full of the Spirit and grace. filled with power and ancient warrior dreams that once swept across the landscape. armed with the 2 edged sword that is able to divide spirit and soul and able to send demons trembling and fleeing in desperate fear.
come, let us return to the Lord.
