God is a God of action!

Psalm 68:7"....O God, when you went out before your people,
when you marched through the wilderness,...."

God is a God of action. He is not dependent on his people to start things, he is the first to act and to initiate salvation. He initiated to rescue his people from Egypt, he raised up judges, prophets, kings, and he sent his son, his word, himself, made flesh and came down among us. Not because we were worthy, or especially good at praying for salvation, but because he loves us, His creation, and he wanted us to be able to come back once again to a right relationship of Love towards Him and all of his creation.

He is initiating for salvation today in this earth! In this very city! God has called us and others to this city, and many other cities like it in this country. Not because we so desperately long for peoples salvation, but because God so desperately longs for people to be pulled out of darkness. He so loves the people of Los Angeles that he is the one in pursuit, he wants his glory to be renown, that all may hear and all may know who is their creator and be able to come back to a right standing relationship of Love with Him. God is beckoning this city to come before Him and recognize him for who he is.
