Joel 2:12: key verse
Break down before the breakthrough.
Something is not right?
Isreal has sinned yet again.
God allows enemies to attack
God allows locust to come into the land and devastate it.
We need to break down before the breakthrough.
What was the symbol of tearing clothing in Jewish custom?
Kriah is a Hebrew word meaning "tearing."
It refers to the act of tearing one's clothes or cutting a black ribbon worn on one's clothes.
This rending is a striking expression of grief and anger at the loss of a loved one.
Kriah is an ancient tradition.
When our patriarch Jacob believed his son Joseph was dead, he tore his garments (Genesis 37:34).
Likewise, in II Samuel 1:11 we are told that King David and all the men with him took hold of their clothes and tore them upon hearing of the death of Saul and Jonathan.
Job, too, in grieving for his children, stood up and tore his clothes (Job 1:20).
So tearing ones clothes was an outward expression of what was happening inside.
God is saying stop the outward show.
I see you.
Tear your hearts instead.
Breakdown and get right with me.
Then you will see your breakthrough.
Return to the Lord.
Tear your hearts instead.
Breakdown and get right with me.
Why?
For He is - merciful
For He is - compassionate
For He is- slow to anger
For He is - filled with unfailing love.
He is eager to relent and not punish.
Isreal don’t forget who your God is.
Christian don’t forget who your God is. - Return to God.
Possible tangent: Is one of the reason God allowed covid to hit the world to get “His Churches attention”?
What blessing did God send His church?
Got us focused back on Him.
Focused back on the gospel.
Focused back on reaching those far from God.
Then you will see your breakthrough.
Call the church to fast.
Oldest to the youngest.
Senior saints and children.
Oh and those that are planning on getting married.
Stop.
It will have to wait.
Returning to God, Honoring God, Seeking God, God moves.
Does God want to answer our prayers.
Yes!
But we must breakdown before the Lord before the breakthrough.
When God breaks through it will be evident it was His doing.
He will and should get all the praise.
It will be evident “Church on The Hill” that God is moving yet again in Riverside and using us again.
