We know where the Spirit of the Lord is
Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty
We're Yours and Yours is the Kingdom
We're Yours and Yours is the kingdom
In one day I am going to a place where the Spirit of the Lord is and where spiritual freedom is the only type of freedom that His believers experience. A place where persecution is not a thing of the past, but a daily threat. They are torn away from their families and thrown into prison for doing what God calls everyone of us who call ourselves believers to do. Share the Good News (Mt 28:18-20).
And although I have only caught tiny glimpses into the Lord's heart and His desire for these people, I rest assured in the fact that the same Christ that died for me died for every single person there. As badly as God wanted (and wants) me, He wants them. And God will not relent or waver until He has reclaimed what is His. He is a jealous God, a consuming fire (deut 4:24).
So these song lyrics bring me hope. They remind me of the Lord's sovereignty. The Kingdom of Heaven is His. The entire kingdom on earth and all on it, whether they know it yet or not, whether they deny His existence or worship at His feet... All of it is His. The people of this nation we are going to, they have been ransomed and reconciled. As I await and long for them to be awoken to the Love that cries out to them, the Almighty keeps crying out and will continue into eternity. He is relentless. All He can do is Love His children. He doesn't know any different.
Praise Him.
