Promises

Another interesting thought from Bill Johnson:

Jesus does not lead us into praying for things that He is not ready to fulfill.
So when he directs us in prayer for the nations, it's because he actually intends on nations being converted. He doesn't ask the question "can a nation be saved in a day?" merely to entertain our fantasies or to put off into the millennium things that are too hard to believe for today. It's irresponsible to take the great promises of scripture and put them off into a time for which we have no responsibility.

It's way to easy to look through scripture and say that's for the millennium. But it doesn't say that. What it says is the the glory of the Lord will fill the earth, it says he will pour out His spirit on all flesh. There isn't a time slot mentioned it's just a promise revealing the heart of God and the potential of his effect on the earth and he's just looking for someone to adopt a promise and hover over it in prayer and find out if maybe, just maybe it might unfold in my lifetime.
