The Great Restorer


Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins and will raise up the age-old foundations; you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets with Dwellings. Isaiah 58:12

It is easier to renovate then to rebuild completely. Often my people give into the mentality to demolish and then rebuild before I do. I am patient in my building...and the tools and materials I use are good and perfect in my sight. I demolish when the people fail to listen that things are crumbling and dangerous for them. I always speak to my people and warn them of the danger of the crumbling, of the desecration of the things that hold them up and keep them safe.


It is in my virtue to be a protector. When I come into your life, by the power of Jesus and by his blood sacrifice I give to you a new spirit...but your mind, soul, will, and emotions I will renovate. For each of these things, led by your new spirit you must willingly place in my hands.
Often I speak to my people about houses. This can mean many things; a heart, a ministry, a relationship. I can make a shack into a castle, a drybed creek into a great river through my spirit...which is now within you. I am the great restorer. Thriving, whole and new are the things that I give you. If you see something in your life, or in the body that does not look like this, then it must be turned over to me to be renovated.

In culture right now there is much talk and expense, T.V. programs and such about renovation. In your life I will expense and go to great lengths to do the same. That is just a manifestation of what is happening at greater lengths in the spirit as people willingly turn their hearts and their lives to me. Except I do what what no man could ever do, and by my spirit I make all things new.
