Why the watches?

When deciding on the pictures for the website and the blog for Intercessor's House we felt that the most important issue of the time is exactly that: time. I was reminded of a dream I had back in 1997 when I was still in Argentina in which the Lord literally spoke the words: "you have but one hour". The eleventh hour, when time is of the escence and the escence is time.

Never before have we been so constrained about time, so much to pray for and so little time, we could say. The Lord is just about to come and we know that before He comes there will be a major move of God in the world -not just here or there, but worldwide- like this world has never seen. We can already smell the rain, and we see the Holy Spirit manifesting in ways that can only be an announcement of things to come.

Why then the watches? Why the emphasis on time? Because a move of God is just at the bend, we can already see the approaching glow round the corner, praise God! He is coming! The watches are a reminder to us of the short time we have, and the very word "watch" point to the fact that we are watchers on the wall!

So many promises are about to come true all at once! We have to admit that we do not have the silghtest idea of what it means to have the Holy Spirit poured upon "all flesh". We have never seen it! Like the disciples waiting in the upper room, they were waiting in obedience but until the Holy Spirit came and they truly experience Him they were not quite sure exactly what they were expecting, for all they know it was the "promise" Jesus made before leaving.

Like those disciples, we are waiting for the promise; the promise of revival; the promise of a great move of God, which we believe will be the last one before the return of our Lord. Can we see the reason why so much emphasis on time? We have not much time left, for this is truly the last minutes of the eleventh hour.
