A Lovesick Generation

               I just got finished writing my last blog post, “The Emotions of God” and something continued to stir inside of me again. I am gaining that sense of urgency yet again. I have a new sense of passion for God that is truly deeper than ever before. The flame in my spirit for Him began to well up to a higher heat of intensity. I can hear Him calling me by name yet again. His presence is falling on my face now as I type. It is such a heavy presence of love consuming my entire being. He is in the very room with me enticing me to go into a communing place with Him. I am more lovesick for Him than I have ever been in my life. This passion left me for a few months, but I continued to dig and pursue Him no matter what I felt like, and He has faithfully given me this burning yet again. It is like a deep groaning in my inner man for a higher knowledge for who He is. It is like being fulfilled but empty all at the same time. His presence is so magnificent and fulfilling, but it only leads me to longing for more and understanding I will never have enough. It is an hour to become addicted to Christ. It is a time where nothing else should matter, but to spend just a moment in His presence. We are to relish the times that we have with Him. He reminisces of these special moments with Him. He desires for us to have a lovesick feeling for Him for all of eternity as He is lovesick for us. I am so in love with Him just to feel Him with me is so overwhelming. My emotions are growing and tears are welling up. I cannot control myself, but to cry out for more, and to ask that He reveals more of who He is to me. His very breath is in the room that I type in. I can feel His wind swirl throughout the room, and it is only for the reason that I have called out to Him. He is here because I long for Him to be with me. He is here to let me feel His emotions that He has for me and others. He knows that I am truly lovesick for Him, and His people. I can feel His hand on the covenant place in my heart. I just pray that those that read this have this same encounter with Him. I just pray that you too become lovesick for the One that has created us to love Him. We need to get to the point where we eat less, sleep less, and live righteously without even knowing it because of our passion to pursuing Him. I can feel a Holy griping in my heart that is alluring me closer to Him. He longs for the same with you. He wants to allure you to His heartbeat. Let us have the same experience that John had with God in John 13:23, “23 Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved.” Let us rest on the very bosom of Christ. Let us lay on His chest to hear His heartbeat for us. With each beat of His heart, His heart is saying, “I love you, I long for you, come up here, spend time with me, I burn for you, and you are my beloved.” To have a lovesick generation is to have a generation that will change the global atmosphere.

                With lovesickness for Him as you walk, His love protrudes through the darkness of this world. With His love in you no enemy can overcome. His love is what conquered sin, and He is asking us to walk in that very same love. I know I used this scripture in a blog a few weeks back, but I cannot get away from it. Jeremiah 2:2, “2 "Go and cry in the hearing of Jerusalem, saying, 'Thus says the Lord: "I remember you, The kindness of your youth, The love of your betrothal, When you went after Me in the wilderness, In a land not sown.” He is remembering the times that we went after Him with everything that we had. He wants us to become as lovesick for Him as He is for us. He wants us back into His embrace, in the covenant place with Him. O beloved, the secret place with Him is so overwhelming. I am really having a hard time keeping myself together as I type this, because His presence is resting over me so heavily right now. My eyes are pouring tears like a river flows violently from its mouth. My belly feels as though it is going to burst, because it is so full of His love. I am feeling such a holiness, such a love, and such a pleasantry that I cannot contain this passion that I have for the One who created me. He wants to spend time with us only so that we can experience His love.  I am mourning for y’all so that you too can have what I am encountering. This is not a hour to give up, but an hour to press in to the deeper things of God. Let us cry out for more, because we have right now is not enough. He can never give us enough of Himself if we are lovesick for Him. He will always give us more if we ask for more. We cannot be complacent to where we are at right now. Lord a pray for a burning hunger to arise in those that read this. Instill in them a passion greater than their own capacity for You that You can only give. O Lord, let a lovesick generation arise. Let us arise to the positions that we are called to be in. Let us not be wimpy Christians, but mighty love warriors for You that burn with passion.  Let the call come forth, and let the chosen ones assemble. Let us burn aflame with Your love so that lives are transformed just by us passing by. Bring to us a greater presence of You that has ever been on this earth. Let this revival be greater than the revival in Acts Chapter 2. O Lord, each time you knock at my door I fling it wide and invite You in. Take me to the chambers of Your kingdom, so that I can see Your beauty.  Song of Solomon 5:8, “8 I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, If you find my beloved, That you tell him I am lovesick!” When you find Him let Him know that I am even more lovesick for Him than ever before. He is asking for us to continue to search for Him, even in the wilderness and destitute place.

                The Shulamite woman was so lovesick for her Bridegroom that she began to declare who He was to her friends in Song of Solomon Chapter 5:10-16. We are to declare the beauty of God. As a man is to compliment a woman, so are we to compliment our Bridegroom. He is always compliments us, telling us how beautiful we are, how lovely we are, and how He delights in us. Let us make the same declarations to Him. Song of Solomon 5:16, “16 His mouth is most sweet, Yes, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, And this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem!” His presence is so sweet, His face is so lovely, His eyes are so enticing, and He is altogether beautiful. To gain the revelation of being a Bride of Christ is a life altering revelation. Nothing can contain this love I have for Him. I feel as though my heart is getting ready to burst at the seams. My heart hurts for a longing for more of Him. Let this lovesick generation arise. Let us cry out to live as He lives, to love as He loves, to yearn as He yearns, and to pray as He prays. O Brides, He is romancing us into the secret place with Him so that when opposition arises we act in a place of love. He has wrapped us in His wings, He is our shield, He is or strength, and He is our strong tower.

                Lord I pray that those that read this feel the flame in their heart for You become rekindled and grow ablaze. I pray that this generation becomes lovesick for you as they once did in their youth. I pray that we return to the old ways, and the ancient paths as those that lived before us. I pray that You pour out the same anointing as those that were on Jeremiah, Isaiah, Ezekiel, and Elijah. Let us live as Christ lives, Let us have compassion as He did, let us lead by example, and let us learn who You are. Lord I pray that we burn for You with the same fire that You burn for us. Overtake us with Your presence Lord. Consume us to the very depths of our heart. Let this generation be a generation of holiness and love. Let this generation be one that is not conformed to this world, but transformed into Your likeness. Let us pant after you are the deer pants for the water. Come and awaken a new love that has never been awakened. Wake up Your Brides Lord, so that we as united ones under You can take over this world. Let us dominate this world with Your love. Let these last years to be years that are filled with those who are consumed by Your love. I pray for a holy gripping to take over our hearts. Come Lord, we need more of You. Let us decrease to that You can increase. Give us a deeper understanding and revelation of Your love, and I seal this prayer in the name of Jesus. Amen!
