In a dream on December 14, the Holy Spirit took me to the Statue of Liberty within the dream itself.
As I was standing before this incredible work of craftsmanship, I looked up towards the eyes of this symbol of American Freedom and I saw what looked like tears falling from her eyes.
At first, I thought that I was seeing things incorrectly, but as I rubbed my eyes (in the dream) and looked up once more, a large tear landed right next to me, then I said, “Lord why is the Statue of Liberty crying these tears”, it was then that I heard the verse below in my hearing.
“Justice is turned away backward, and righteousness (uprightness and right standing with God) stands far off; for truth has fallen in the street (the city’s forum), and uprightness cannot enter [the courts of justice].” Isaiah 59:14
As soon as I heard this I said, “Lord what should we do?” And again I heard another passage of scripture in my ears.
“Therefore I counsel you to purchase from Me gold refined and tested by fire, that you may be [truly] wealthy, and white clothes to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nudity from being seen, AND SALVE TO PUT ON YOUR EYES, THAT YOU MAY SEE.” Revelation 3:18
As this verse appeared before me, the Holy Spirit highlighted the last sentence in Red for me and He said, “Having eyes they see not, and having ears they hear not, but if they will only come to Me, I will give them Eye Salve for their eyes so that they can really see the Truth and The Truth will completely set them free!”
Real Liberty comes from the Presence of the Holy Spirit in every Christian’s life (2 Corinthians 3:17)! This is why Lady Liberty was crying, not just because of the injustice going on around us, and not just because of evil people who are currently in power, but because of the lack of the Holy Spirit’s Presence in the midst of the Body of Christ in this generation!
Real identity and real Liberty come when we know Who Jesus Christ is, and when we come to a real understanding of Who we are in Him. However, the only way that we can come to the understanding of either one of those things, is by the Revelation of God via the Holy Spirit’s Presence in our life.
I believe this generation has lost the power of understanding (2 Corinthians 3:14) of their own physical identities is a direct result of the identity crisis within the Body of Christ.
It’s time that we, as members of Christ, returned to real relationship with Him and allowed the Holy Spirit, to not only bring Liberty and Freedom to our lives but also to every person that the Lord sends across our paths!
If we want to see change in our governments, change in workplaces, change in our families, change in our societies, and change in our culture, then ALL OF THOSE CHANGES MUST FIRST START WITH US AS BELIEVERS IN JESUS CHRIST!
Holy Spirit, Come and Teach us, Come and Open the Eyes of our understanding, Come and Change us, Come and Draw our hearts as a people back to You! And in transforming us, may You transform our peoples, our cities, our governments, our societies, and our nations and turn their hearts back to you at the same time!
He Who has Eyes to See and Ears to hear, let them hear and see, what the Holy Spirit says to the Church!
