Gold Coast, Australia - A Word of Encouragement

My beautiful hometown was on my heart this week. Here’s a brief word of encouragement for the gorgeous Gold Coast, Australia. If you live on the Goldy, feel free to take this personally and claim it as a promise for the city. I’ve loved praying for your this week!

“My plans for you haven’t changed. It is my desire to continue to lavish my love on you as the waters cover the sea. And even as you’re known for your ocean and waterways, you will be known for the glory of the Lord that will cover the people. No longer will they call you desolate but Isaiah 58:11-12 will be said of you. “And the LORD will guide you continually and satisfy your desire in scorched places and make your bones strong; and you shall be like a watered garden, like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail. And your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; you shall be called the repairer of the breach, the restorer of streets to dwell in.””

“And even as you welcome many guests into your city, as you continue to welcome my presence, I will abide with you,” says the Lord. “I will come and inhabit your territory and terrain. I will come, I will stay and I will make my home with you.”

“You are my beloved and I am yours. Never doubt my explosive love for you. I’m on your side - who can be against you?!”
