Lions & Lionesses arising

I have never been more passionate about anything in my life

This is what stirs me up, wakes me up, brings me alive and makes me ARISE.

It is the fact that God saves us, redeems us, heals us and frees us. He shows us complete Father LOVE. Once we get it, we then can go into dark places and share that hope with others. 

We need to realize that in this life there is more going on than what we can see in front of us.  The enemy wants to steal, kill and destroy creation. God wants to bring life and life in abundance. We need to be aware of this and ARISE as the lions and lionesses that we were created to be, fully prepared for battle. This first begins in the heart. All of us have had things in our lives that need healing. It's like being in the jungle and getting scrapes, cuts etc. If left unhealed by God they can get infected and grow etc.  God is more than able to heal. For many, it's family issues. For myself, I deeply missed my dad. He was an amazing dad and he passed away of cancer when I was 10. God needed to heal me of that sadness and abandonment.   When my mom remarried, I assumed my stepdad would be like my first dad who called me princess and spent hours with me, telling stories etc. This was not the case and I had to give God disappointment and feelings of rejection. Once I finally released these things at the cross, I was healed and God filled every place in my heart with His love.  In fact, His love is overflowing that there's so much. It overflows so that we can then pour it out onto others.

There is so much injustice in our world. What breaks my heart is that my sisters all around the world are being oppressed and harmed. We have all heard about human trafficking. There are young girls who trapped in the industry and have no way out.  Thankfully, people are ARISING like lions and lionesses and going into the dark battle and bringing light and rescuing these girls. 

I once heard the sentence in YWAM, Kona by Steve Ahern "The battle is first of all won or lost in the heart".  Once the battle is won in our hearts and we know who's we are, we are prepared to go out. We belong to God. We can then go into battle bringing His light.
Whatever form of justice is on your heart: oppression of children, educating children, poverty etc. ARISE LION AND LIONESSES. I charge you. The world needs you.
