"Deliver The City"
Live Worship Painting
16 x 20 Acrylic on Canvas
This painting depicts angels surrounding Liberty Place, a skyscraper in the heart of Philadelphia. When I painted this, I was intending to release a blessing over the city, but I didn't realize the sybolism of what I painted until months after. God pointed out to me that I had drawn five (5) angels, and the spiritual meaning of the number 5 is grace. I realized that the angels were specifically releasing Grace over Philadelphia, to be a city that is an example of Brotherly Love, not just in name only, but deed, and that God is empowering the Church of Philadelphia with grace to walk out His example of love to the rest of the city and to the nation.
God also pointed out that of all the buildings I had chosen to represent Philly, I chose Liberty Place. The name "liberty" means freedom. I believe God is releasing a spirit of liberty over Philadelphia, to set people free from bondage to sin, depression and oppression, and draw them into a true relationship with Him, marked by freedom in Christ.
"The angel of the Lord encamps around those that fear Him and delivers them.."
Psalm 34:7
"..to proclaim Liberty to the captives..."
Isaiah 61:1
"God will establish (the city) forever. Selah."
Psalm 48:8
