There is a bridge that God is releasing to the one who are thirsty and hungry for his presence.
By Darren Canning
It is the beginning of January 2018 and yesterday my wife and I, and our five children boarded the EconoVan and started our 5th or 6th trip from Canada to Texas. We drive for four days one way on these trips.
We started in the middle of blizzard like conditions in the Northern Part of the USA. We had to drive 13 hours yesterday in order to get to our first destination here in Timberville, Virginia where I will be preaching with Barbara Shaw at a ministry called Heart of the Home, which is located, believe it or not, in a furniture store.
I started coming to this ministry three or four years ago. We have seen this place explode in the glory. God is good. It has become a hub where many apostles and prophets have come to, in order to release what God is doing in this hour. Barb is a strong believer in revival and only has eyes to see her region transformed by the power of God.
The drive that we take from Canada into the USA starts near the Queen’s highway 401 just outside of Kingston, Ontario and goes across into the USA where connecting with Interstate 81. In order to get from Canada into the USA we have to drive across two major bridges. The border is actually on an island in the Saint Lawrence Seaway in a region called the 1000 islands. It is so beautiful there.
Later in the day yesterday, we were driving through the mountains of Pennsylvania. There is a region known as the Endless Mountain region. While driving through there I looked up into the sky and went into a vision seeing a mammoth bridge in the spirit. I knew that God was saying something. As I was talking to him about it, he reminded me of a vision that I had a long time ago.
In that vision I was walking through a white sand desert that brings the words of Psalm 63:1 to mind, “You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land where there is no water.”
I must have walked for what was hours in the dream looking for a turn in the road. That turn never seemed to come. The sand was piled high on my left hand side. There was no water in this place. I was tired, weary and wanted a drink. I remember suddenly a turn came to the road and I got very excited because I thought something new was about to begin, but when I took the turn it was the same dusty trail all over again, just in a different direction.
I continued to walk and I started to grow even more weary. My body was weary but my spirit was also growing weary. In that moment a groan came from deep inside of me. I had been on this duty trail for way too long. I began to yell out to God saying, “Lord when will this change take place that I feel deep inside of me?” It was more like I was angry at God than anything and I even felt like I was just about to give up, but in that moment real change began to happen.
A bridge appeared on the horizon and it was near the sea. I knew that when I crossed that bridge I was about to cross over into the promises of God and into a land of spiritual refreshing.
This is what the Lord is saying to the church in this hour. Get ready for your day of spiritual refreshing. There is a bridge that God is releasing to the one who are thirsty and hungry for his presence. They will be uplifted, inspired and blessed as they cross into this new year. Something exciting is about to happen in 2018. I don’t know what it is, but I do know that it is good. Nothing that God does is not good. He has plans for your life.
Jeremiah 29:11 says, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” I was in a church preaching two nights ago in Canada. I asked he people if they had every read this verse in Jeremiah. About 90%, if not more, of the people raised their hands. I said, “Doesn’t it give you hope to know that God has a plan for your life.”
He does have a plan for you. For every single person who is alive, and for everyone who did live and will live he has a plan. The riches of our God is that he can bless every single man, woman and child on the earth. He is able to make all grace abound in every life that he has created. He will even bless the sparrows and the little creatures that crawl upon the ground. HIs eye is on every single life that he has created and he can prosper and bless each one.
I declare that this is the hour of your refreshing. Your days of wandering aimlessly in he desert are over. Get ready to cross over into the promised land. I see the Jordan river splitting right before you. I see the dry ground appearing. I see the houses that he has for you that you didn’t build. I see the cities that you will live in. It is good. He has abundance for you and rain is about to fall. Get ready for all things to be made new through Jesus Christ our Lord.
