Establishing the Highways of Heaven
Michigan roads are a mess! I'm writing you in May of 2023. Near my house is an entrance to Highway I-275. Like many roads in MI, this one is in poor condition and under construction. If you live here, you know Michigan roads are always under construction. My husband and I headed out on a short trip, and when we entered the freeway, on the right side of the road were road materials I had never seen in my years of living in Michigan. At least five materials were being used to fix the roads. I looked where the road was torn up and realized not just two or three levels of the road were under construction – about five were. Some areas of the road were stripped below dirt level.
God's Call, ‘Rebuild the Highways’. As I watched the side of the road and all the work, the Lord whispered, 'I'm going down to the foundations of MI, and I want My highways repaired. Call the watchmen of Michigan to rise, pray over the roads of this state, restore them, and then watch over and guard them.
Michigan Highways. In Greek, highways have two key references. The first word, with its three root words, means: that a route, or someone's journey, is in a rut. A gnawer came, caused trauma, inflicted a wound, and now the course (the journey or way) is a rut. It's worn down. The meaning of these words describes Michigan's highways and roads.
