The Church is not only sleeping, she's gotten lazy waiting for her Groom's return. Where are the all night prayer meetings? Where is the seeking for God's face? Where is the hunger? and thirst?
Yes, there is a famine for the hearing of the Word of God! Because there is a lack of preaching the Word of God.
Luke 3:16 & 17
John answered all of them: "I baptize you with water, but One more powerful than I will come, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.
His winnowing fork (sifter, sieve) is in His hand to clear His threshing floor and to gather the wheat into His barn. But He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."
When God sifts the world and the chaff blows away, the Church will get sifted first because it is her responsibility to call out to the lost in sin the Way to the Cross and the Garden. She is required to shine her Light, the Light of Christ, into the darkness of a despairing, dying world.
Revelation 22:17
"Both the Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" Anyone who hears should say, "Come!" And the one who is thirsty should come. Whoever desires should take the living water as a gift."
