"This is your life: Are you who you want to be?"

Recently, a prophetic word came through Kim Clement in which the LORD says:
"Ask of Me, and I shall give it to you. Do you want the nations? I will give it as an inheritance. What do you want from Me?" says the Spirit of God. "I have torn away the veil; I have torn it away. I have torn it down so that you may enter into a new life and a new dimension" (www.elijahlist.com, 2/5/07).
As I read this, I was so taken aback by the Lord's question, "What do you want from Me?" It seems such an open, plaintive question like a Dad just opening his arms to say, "What can I do for you, tell me, and it's yours." You mean I can just tell you Lord, the God of the Universe, what I want?! And His answer back is: "Yes, that's what I've been waiting for. And believe Me, I am able to do exceedingly, abundandtly above all that you ask or dream" (Eph. 3:20).
So what would you ask of Him? What are your dreams, your desires? What do you want to do? Who do you want to become? What do you want to know, what kind of deep revelation would you want Him to reveal to you? It's such a simple question, but not always a simple answer to give, as you're thinking about the deepest desires of your heart and soul.

And as you think of your personal dreams and desires, what can and should we ask of Him corporately? Together, we are an intercessory group, established of God in Rochester, NY for such a time as this. The Lord has given us a mission to seek, to "encounter Him, and intercede for our generation."
"Ask of Me," He says, "and I will give you the Nations as an inheritance and the ends of the earth for your possession" (Ps. 2:8).
If you can come this Friday night or a Friday in the future, please come with big dreams and pure desires to intercede and ask of Him for our generation in Rochester, America, and the Nations!
