Real Life When we are Awake

MELISSA GABLER—Real life comes when we are awake. It will be an amazing adventure to live out the true intentions of God for our lives.  I feel like I’m rambling right now but I can’t think of another way to express what I’m feeling about what’s ahead. Like I mentioned up front, it’s just way too massive for us to be able to endure all at once and that’s why this Third Great Awakening has been and will be an ongoing process.  If you don’t feel it yet, I want to encourage you to hold on because this unveiling is building steam and you will see the goodness of God in the land of the living! (Ps. 27:13,Amp—“[What, what would have become of me] had I not believed that I would see the Lord’s goodness in the land of the living!”)


Lost Time and Opportunities

MARTIN GABLER–May we not focus on the loss of time and opportunities as we head into the last quarter of this year. But may we focus on Him Who is faithful and desirous to get us to appointed times and purposes and may He help us not to sabotage what He is working in us.

“The Lord will perfect that which concerns me; Your mercy, O Lord, endures forever; Do not forsake the works of Your hands.” (Ps.138:8, NKJV)


Take Hold of Plan A

MELISSA GABLER—This is the time to loose your grasp on plan B and take hold, with both hands, of plan A — Father’s original intent for your life. If your answer is hidden, ask God what the right question is in this moment. Ask Him what, in you, might be hindering the answer. Ask Him what you need to know today. He’s got plans for you, He is not into punishing you. His M.O. is all about forgiveness, redemption, relationship, and promotion, all for His glory. Hey, if He tells you it’s simply about timing then it’s really that simple. His timing is perfect. Look at the birth and life of Samuel. Perseverance is key! It’s going to be an amazing time heading into next year. Get ready for your answers.


His Footprints Were in the Bottom of the Red Sea

MARTY GABLER—A great example of scripture that shows us God has already moved in our tomorrow and what we can anticipate is Ps.77:19. (CEV) “You walked through the water of the mighty sea, but your footprints were never seen.”  And The Message version says: “You strode right through Ocean, walked straight through roaring Ocean, but nobody saw you come or go.”   God’s footprints were already in the bottom of the Red Sea before Israel ever left Egypt! An updated comparison might be: before they walked into 2025, God walked through the Red Sea in 2024. No one saw His footprints because they were looking at the circumstances with the considerations of the present age (cf. Rom 12:2). They had stopped considering God’s Word and had started considering the appearance of present circumstances. Most of them were looking back at Egypt wishing they had never screwed up the courage to walk out; desiring captivity and limited possibilities rather than trusting a God whose “mercies are new every morning” (that is a very strong hint that we should anticipate God). There are no surprises awaiting God in the remainder of 2025. His footprints are already out there in 2026. We are anticipating a Participating God who cannot be surprised.
