God spoke to me this morning for those in ‘lockdown’ or feeling restricted! He said: “Although you feel ‘locked up’ and incapacitated right now, keep moving, keep proclaiming Jesus, keep praying, keep reaching out. Be like Joseph.

God is cleansing the church right now. We are being sifted and shaken to reveal hidden heart motives. Have we become dependant on others to worship? How do we react when the doors to where we once gathered are closed? “Why doesn’t one of you just shut the Temple doors and lock them?
