Prepare the Way of the Lord

I feel the burden of Your people crying out day and night in bondage, "Please God, please God please help me escape." And I see the darkness and the forces that hold them like an unbreakable thick black cord choking them to death, their hands and feet bound, and it is so strong. And I hear the screams that could curdle blood and the people in the street, passers-by, walk on without missing a beat. And I see the marks on her face and the bruises on her legs and I hear someone say, "Serves you right, anyway," for the look on her face contains nothing but dismay, hidden in disdain for the world she lives in, loves and hates. And I feel her indescribable pain. And my Father takes her hand, and in the midst of the pain, He takes her place in death with only love in His eyes. And His blood pours out and it washes all her filth away. And she says, "I remember no more my shame." 
And I cry out, "Prepare the way of the Lord!" (Is. 40:3)

Prayer:
"Behold the Lord God shall come with a strong hand, and His arm shall rule for Him, behold, His reward is with Him, and His work before Him." Isaiah 40:10

Our God, the God Most High, Our Father, Our King, Our Ruler. There is no question, but He will come. There is no if. His mighty arm will rule and with it He will judge and decide. We will be at His mercy, and "His mercy endures forever." (Ps. 136) He will reward the righteous and condemn the wicked. Even now His work is being manifested in this world, through His Word. All we want, all we need is in His words, but even now the veil covers our eyes so we cannot see clearly. Even the shroud covers His Words. No more! NO MORE! No more lies! I declare in Jesus' Name the truth will set you free! The enemies' lies have no hold on me, on us, the powers of darkness flee at the light, and the chains are broken! Amen! There is no oppression in Jesus! There is no slavery in Jesus! There is no pain in Jesus! There is no emptiness in Jesus! No More! All the promises of God are yes and amen in Jesus' Name! (2 Cor. 1:20) Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control, yes to these! (Gal. 5:22-23) Yes to these in Jesus! Yes to Your promises Jesus! Yes to You! Cut the chains for the King is coming! Prepare the way! Pray! Fast! Speak! Sing! Don't stop! Prepare the way! His way is paved with peace, paved with no more oppression, bondage, slavery, but with FREEDOM! Prepare the way! Shout "Freedom!" in the streets! Jesus is Immanuel, God with us, bringing us freedom. I believe in Jesus. I believe in FREEDOM. Amen. Hallelujah!
