I ask myself, "why is that"?
What this "move" is upon the human soul seems more in line with unlearned and inexperienced power and authority handled by the will of man and not by the active Power of God or the Holy Ghost.
I have been around the world more times than I care too think about traveling now. I have been at the highest and the lowest in several of these countries. I came in the Name of the Lord. I had daily encounters with God in His Holy Presence. And I found His emphasis was nothing in the number of what is brought to the reader's attention hereon.
I am not certain that all this is a move of God.
Let me use Scripture and ask a question. A couple of well know verses, one attributed to the Holy Ghost and the other attributed to Jesus Christ. Both verses are written in the "now" context quite literally similar to the video of this woman being prayed for that resurrection fire and life would awaken the dead baby in her womb.
Just for the record, I was asked to lay hands on a dead eighteen month old boy in the presents of his mother, father, both sides, grandparents and about 20 or so villagers on an island in the South China Sea and after laying hands on him, he came back to life! You could hear a pin drop after that event! That night the entire village came to hear me preach as well villagers from all the surrounding regions. I had gathered there two groups, those who believed and came to receive and honestly, another group who were so full of rage and hatred for me being present that group were throwing stones at me. I had to be surrounded and extricated from the mass of people so as not to be harmed!
Here are the verses:::>
Act 13:2 While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them."
Act 13:3 Then after fasting and praying they laid their hands on them and sent them off.
Act 13:4 So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia, and from there they sailed to Cyprus.
In this verse we either agree His audible voice or that "sense" of His Presence and still small voice was loud enough that everyone was of one heart, mind and soul when He commissioned those two and sent them forth completely in one accord with the Holy Ghost in that "now" moment.
Act 14:3 So they remained for a long time, speaking boldly for the Lord, who bore witness to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
Act 14:4 But the people of the city were divided; some sided with the Jews and some with the apostles.
Here is a more telling "record" of "how" Jesus Himself is actively envolved in His servants "now" life going about building His Church.
For me, those two verses capture what really is our "now" in this present evil age. Doesn't it you dear reader?
I wonder if we might be caught up in a "now" need and are not "letting" the Holy Ghost or Jesus have control of our lives?
I don't know about you, but from what I am sensing, this is a flaky kind of revival or it's the real deal.
If it the one or the other, as always, time will tell.
In the meantime, let's all adhere to this admonition from the Apostle:::>
1Ti 6:12 Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called and about which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
1Ti 6:13 I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession,
1Ti 6:14 to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
1Ti 6:15 which he will display at the proper time--he who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords,
1Ti 6:16 who alone has immortality, who dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.
