can you feel the mountains tremble...

is this what revival feels like?

Did you feel the mountains tremble?
Did you hear the oceans roar?
When the people rose to sing of
Jesus Christ the risen one

Did you feel the people tremble?
Did you hear the singers roar?
When the lost began to sing of
Jesus Christ the risen one

And we can see that God you're moving
A mighty river through the nations
And young and old will turn to Jesus
Fling wide your heavenly gates
Prepare the way of the risen Lord

Open up the doors and let the music play
Let the streets resound with singing
Songs that bring your hope
Songs that bring your joy
Dancers who dance upon injustice

Did you feel the darkness tremble?
When all the saints join in one song
And all the streams flow as one river
To wash away our brokeness

And here we see that God you're moving
A time of Jubilee is coming
When young and old return to Jesus
Fling wide your heavenly gates
Prepare the way of the risen Lord


I can feel God on this campus. He is working in everything. He is making himself known in the dorms and the biblestudies. So many people are being drawn to Him and to us because of Him. but even in the places where we are not, He is being talked about. Its so refreshing to remember that it isnt about us at all. Its easy to get caught up in our own little "jesus" world. to see the things He is doing in our lives. But How humbling is it to see what God is doing without our involvement at all. Its not about us, its about Him!!! To sit down at a table in the student center, and hear the people next to me having a discussion about Christ. I have no idea what prompted this mans search for the truth. He wasnt invovled in Cru and it didnt sound like he had much exposure to the Gospel at home. All my limited knowledge of the man told me was that somehow God had got his attention. How awesome is that? We must perserver because His kingdom will waitfor no one. The time is now! He is here and ready to do great things :)

Galatians 6:9 (New International Version)
9Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

Matthew 9:37 (New International Version)
37Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.

Psalm 9:20 (New International Version)
20 Strike them with terror, O LORD; let the nations know they are but men. Selah

Psalm 22:27 (New International Version)
27 All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the LORD, and all the families of the nations will bow down before him

Lord, we ask for the nations! We ask for this campus in your name. let the earth see that you are Lord and you are worthy of all praise. May not one be thrown to the side. When i walk through the heavenly gates one day, i want to see every face there as well, lifting praises to you. How powerful would that be?! Give us the desires of our heart that you would be praised.
