Anticipating His Next Move
I'm opening to you a door. Do you see it? Do you perceive it? Do you feel the doorknob? Do you feel the anticipation behind the door? Do you feel the rattle of the chains that are going to break and hit the floor?? Do you hear the sounds of triumph? Do you feel the earth move? Do you know and do you anticipate MY next move!?
Oh, the earth WILL move under your feet
and the sky will come tumbling down
but not in the way you might think!
For I will render the heavens
and break through with great power!
I will drop My 'glory bombs'
on all who dwell in this hour! hahaha!
Oh, the earth will move under your feet!
And the sky will come tumbling down,
but not in the way you might think! hahaha!

After writing this I looked up "rend the heavens"
Rend the heavens" means to tear or rip the heavens apart, and it is used in a prayerful context to express a deep desire for divine intervention. It comes from a verse in Isaiah where the prophet pleads for God to "rend the heavens and come down" to manifest His power and presence, often in a time of great need or crisis. This can be a plea for God to dramatically intervene in human affairs or for a powerful spiritual revival.
- The literal meaning of "rend" is to tear or rip apart, so the phrase is a powerful image of tearing the physical sky open.
- It is a cry for God to break through from the spiritual realm to act in the physical world.
- The phrase expresses a profound longing and desperation for God's presence, especially when people feel that God is distant or when facing immense suffering.
- Isaiah 64:1: The phrase originates from this verse: "Oh, that You would rend the heavens and come down, that the mountains would tremble before You!"
***
Oh, that you would rend the heavens and come down, that the mountains would tremble before you! As when fire sets twigs ablaze and causes water to boil, come down to make your name known to your enemies and cause the nations to quake before you! For when you did awesome things that we did not expect, you came down, and the mountains trembled before you. Since ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who wait for him.
