Excerpt
At this point in my life, I had now become possessed with an overwhelming hunger to know the absolute truth about the workings of the Holy Spirit. This was coupled with a passionate desire to receive all that was possible to receive from God.
Psalm 37:4 encourages us to, "Delight thyself also in the Lord; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart." I believe I had truly come to delight in the things of the Lord, but how did I arrive here? What forces were triggering these longings in my heart?
Philippians 2:13 says, "For it is God which worketh in you both to will and do of his good pleasure." The word, will, also means desire, in Greek according to Strong's Concordance #2309.
Think about it, God works in our lives causing us to both desire and do his will. He actually plants his desires within our hearts.
All the prophetic pieces are assembling before our eyes. It is time to prepare for Earth's final hour. There is hope for the future as you see that Day approaching.
