God is looking for people to speak, to live, and to demonstrate the wake-up call of the word “Amen!” (What does that word mean?)

The word “amen” doesn’t mean that a prayer has come to an end. It’s an affirmation that declares “So be it/May it be fulfilled.” It also means “Get going with God and keep on obeying Him no matter what.”

“Amen” is a wake-up call to “pray without ceasing,” (1 Thessalonians 5:17) — a call to consistently “live by the Spirit,” (Galatians 5:25) by staying in conscious contact with God and demonstrating His presence and power in and through your daily life. It’s a wake-up call to “hear what the Spirit is saying,” (Revelation 2:7) and to affirm it by being continually “led by the Spirit,” (Romans 8:14) of “Christ in you, the hope of glory.” (Colossians 1:27)

“Amen” is a call to live a life ever overflowing with worship “in Spirit and in truth (John 4:24).” “The four living creatures said, ‘Amen,’ and the elders fell down and worshipped.” (Revelation 5:14) “All the people lifted their hands and responded, ‘Amen! Amen!’ Then they bowed down and worshiped the LORD with their faces to the ground.” (Nehemiah 8:6)

To Jesus ”be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen. He has made us a Kingdom of priests for God his Father.” (Revelation 1:6.) “May the whole earth be filled with His glory. Amen and Amen. Praise His glorious name forever!” (Psalm 72:19)

“Amen. Hallelujah!” (Revelation 19:4) “Amen. Come Lord Jesus.” (Revelation 22:20) Let the risen Jesus unceasingly speak these words to your heart: “I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen.” (Revelation 1:18)

Amen! God is continually calling me to keep waking up to the objectivity of Christ in me as He continually challenges and dismantles my subjective desires, feelings, and opinions. God is speaking in the heart of whoever will listen. Will you listen?
