The Come Promise
The Come Promise
“Spirit and the Bride say, 'Come.' and let the one who hears say, 'Come.'” Revelation 22:17
When God says, Come, it is not only an invitation, it is an activation.
When God says Come, it activates within you not only the ability to come into his manifest presence, but the desire to come.
In the final chapter of the Book of the Revelation, God not only invites you to come, but he puts within you the desire to come.
Notice that Revelation 22:17 combines the call of God and the call of the church to come. This is the heart of revival-- God calls out to the church to come into his manifest presence, and the church calls out to God to come in his manifest presence.
The final exhortation seals the deal-- And let the one who hears say, Come.
If you hear God calling you into his manifest presence, he wants you to return the favor.
Loving Father, I hear the Holy Spirit calling me to come, and on behalf of the church, I cry out to you, even so come Lord Jesus.
