There were items we cleaned out that could not be shipped in boxes, such as perishable food and flammable cleaning supplies. As the day approached for moving back to Texas, we prepared. We cleaned out those things that could not go and made room for only the few things that mattered most. We knew God was saying it was time to move, so we made sure we were ready.
God is calling his men and women to rise up in this time to be who God has designed you to be - one body purified, dressed, and ready in His glorious garments of righteousness, ready to receive her Bridegroom. How do we prepare? How do we get dressed? We prepare our hearts in the same way we prepare our homes for a move. We clean out those things that do not go with us. We release those things that are not fitting to who we are in Christ. We release those items, places, and people who are not pursuing Christ with purity of heart or helping us do the same.
We release unforgiveness and bitterness that is toxic and flammable to our souls and relationships. We clean out the old fruit and perishable things we have held onto from the past that are not bringing a sweet aroma of Christ in our lives now. We clothe ourselves in the righteousness of God, leaving behind the shame of our past sin and clothing of our shame or fear-based false identity.

In order to move, you have to make room. You have to prepare. Not everything goes with you. Be intentional in prayer. Ask the Lord, "What are those things that go forward with me, and what are You asking me to let go of and to leave behind"?
Make room in your heart for the new things He has for you. Prepare your heart to be ready to move when He says it's time. Be ready for a move of God in your home, work, church, or city. Point your heart towards His. Ask Him how you can partner with Him in this hour in your community or sphere of influence. Prepare your heart for a move of God, and you will be ready to bring His heart to those around you.
