Revival all through Bible history and our contemporary times is a season of divine opportunities for dramatic change of story both for the Church of Christ and for the people of God who are genuinely dedicated to the move of the Spirit. A season of divine opportunities.
You go to the sea shore and you see the waves come in; wave after wave but every wave coming from the sea comes along with some treasures. They don’t come empty, they come with treasures and those who desire those treasures, just step in and pick them: they are for free.
So is the move of the Spirit, it comes in waves: when it comes, it comes along with diverse opportunities.
We are here in this season of revival, may no one miss the opportunities reserved for him or her in this season.
Among the opportunities is the raw manifestation of the power of God in dealing with issues of our lives and in bringing multitudes into the Kingdom (Habakkuk 3:2).
Everlasting mountains are leveled, perpetual hills are cleared off and then many find their way to their high places as they engage (Habakkuk 3:19).
Those are the testimonies we are having: dramatic change of level, dramatic change of story.
Every revival comes along with the raw manifestation of the power of God and massive salvation of souls (Zephaniah 3:17).
We saw the messenger of the covenant in Malachi 3:1 came suddenly into His temple.
His name? The Holy Ghost
In Acts 2:2, He came suddenly
…He shall sit as a refining fire, so you don’t mess up around Him (Malachi 3:3). So, He brought down Ananias and Sapphira (Acts 5:5) for trying to corrupt the move of the Spirit.
We saw when He came:
First, He demonstrated that He is the Lord of the Harvest – got 3,000 people saved; first day (Acts 2:41).
The next report in Acts 4:4, 5,000 got saved.
In Acts 5:14 – multitudes of men and women got saved.
We saw Him reap the harvest of two towns at a time (Acts 9:35).
One capital proof of every revival is massive salvation of souls;
– NOT great teachings
– NOT reading from Hebrew and Greek and Aramaic
Massive salvation of souls!
Every divine visitation results in massive salvation of souls.
As mentioned earlier, every revival is accompanied with the raw manifestation of the power of God.
We saw the crippled man at the beautiful gate, got healed with perfect soundness as God begins to demonstrate His power through Apostle Peter (Acts 3:16). From that healing came 5,000 people that received the Word (Acts 4:4).
We saw the raw power of God made manifest through Peter in Acts 5:15-16; through Philip (Acts 8:6).
Raw manifestation of the power of God which is behind the dramatic change of story of God’s people.
That my son said, “he kept engaging: ‘Operation Come and See’, ‘Operation PUSH’.” He kept engaging, brought 3 souls into the Kingdom and followed them up in the first operation; brought 5 souls in the second (Operation).
God said, “this boy won’t let me go.” He opened the heaven over his life
Habakkuk 3:17
Although the fig tree may not blossom the first time, second time: keep engaging with joy and rejoicing; suddenly the heaven opened.
Habakkuk 3:18-19
Every revival is a season of divine opportunities both for the Church and the individual engaging believer. Everybody has a change of story package ready for him/her in a revival.
The end product is supernatural church growth (Acts 6:7, Acts 2:47, Acts 13:44). Every true revival will always culminate in the supernatural growth of the church.
That’s why we are praying for the Church of Christ across the globe to experience a wave of the Spirit, the kind we have never experienced before, so that life can return to every Assembly, multitudes can be saved and established in the faith.
Among other things, engaging with the move of the Spirit engenders healing, health and wholeness. They were healed everyone (Acts 5:16). That man had perfect soundness, so no engaging believer is allowed to remain with any sickness or disease in his life because the Word says every branch in Me that bears fruit, He keeps fit so that He can keep bearing more fruit (John 15:2. 2 Corinthians 5:20, Proverbs 13:17).
If you are involved in praying for souls to be saved, involved in reaching out to souls for salvation, ensuring that souls are preserved in the Kingdom: you are entitled to healthy living. You are a fruit bearing branch, He becomes your Personal Physician and you’re entitled to healthy living.
Please understand that every faithful ambassador is entitled to healthy living.
Who is an ambassador? Anyone with a ministry of reconciliation, that means everyone that is born again (2 Corinthians 5:17-20, Proverbs 13:17).
One of our young persons here went to God in the course of this ongoing revival which began 2015. He said, “Lord, for these 4 reasons, sickness has no right to abide in my system.”
God cleared that disease off.
One of our daughters in the Outreach office: her 2 legs were swollen, had chest problem but she came out, got the blessing, went out. Legs back to shape – this is last week, not last year.
You still remember the testimony of the individual with Elephantiasis with a boil on her nose, Jesus cleared the two, same day. Two legs crashed, the ugly thing on the nose gave way. Same day!
Every faithful ambassador is entitled to healing, health and wholeness.
Too many treasures in a revival!
Too many treasures to catch in a revival!
The truth is, you will never be stagnated anymore in your life!
Your family will never be stagnated anymore!
Your business assumes a new status right now because seeking God first and His Kingdom entitles us to all other things being added for free.
…You know what it means for souls from across the 6 continents to be saved in a service? Only God can do that.
What are you preaching? Only God can do that.
Do you know what it means to get people saved on Twitter? Only God.
You know what it means for souls to be won every day, every week across 7 continents of the world? Only God.
The hardest nations on the earth are tuning in! Praise God. Only God.
I want you to see God in the centre of these things: Don’t see a man in there (Zephaniah 3:17)
What we have now is God in the midst of us. If you think I’m the one, you are missing it!
If you think it’s an opportunity and a chance that just came, you are missing it: IT’S A DIVINE AGENDA.
GLORY TO GOD!
One very respected leader said to me, “we follow the Pillars in our Ministry”: outside of this country, a major voice in the Body of Christ.
Did we write it for anybody to follow? No, we were just following it and since they saw God in it, they began following.
You know how many Pastors around the world today, who listen to what we say first before they go to deliver what God has for their people.
God is in the midst of us. Whatever God can do, cannot remain an obstacle in your life.
Therefore, expect that before this ‘Midst of the Year’ revival season is over, your everlasting mountains are over, your perpetual hills are leveled out in the name of Jesus Christ. That’s what happens.
SPEAK TO THE WEEK:
You are right in the centre of a divine agenda.
It’s your week of bumper harvest, your week of breakthrough in business, your week of testimonies.
