NO WORD FOR THE WEARY

1 Sam 3:1
In those days the word of the LORD was rare; there were not many visions. NIV
** To me this has always been a very sad verse and yet I find this verse being more and more true here in the Puget sound as the days go by. If you even use the word of God in any conversation today among the public you’d almost thought you had said something dirty. People around here do not want to hear the word of the Lord. I’ve even heard that in some churches you don’t even hear the world of the Lord being preached but only stories and comments on life. As far as visions, I find no visions among the world and find very little going on in the church. I believe it’s because we have walked so far away from God that He has stopped giving His people visions. Today my heart is heavy after reading this verse. I am so jealous for God and His presence I can’t hardly breathe. Oh how I long to see His presence move through our city and through the churches of this city. How long O God will you hold back your Holy Spirit from this area? Please show us what we have done and the sins of this city so that we can repent and turn back to you. We wait for you….
