"Position Yourself for the Incoming Revival"

Jennifer A. Miskov, Redding, CA

If we knew ahead of time that the Azusa Street Revival (1906) was coming, how would we prepare for it? What about the Welsh Revival, the Jesus People Movement, the Protestant Reformation, or the Great Awakening?

There's been prophecy after prophecy about another great awakening—a billion soul harvest and a third great wave of revival approaching. From my years of studying revival history, there are a few insights I wanted to share that I believe will help us all to position ourselves to catch the next wave and prepare for this incoming move of God.

1. Remain Open

"Steward, embrace and accept the gift God has entrusted you with. I urge you not to sacrifice the gift God has given you or sabotage the calling on your life because you're afraid to shine or you feel inadequate."

It is important to remain open and to realize that revival in our day might look different from what we expect. In the 1970s, many were not prepared for revival to come through the hippies in the Jesus People Movement. In the Azusa Street Revival in 1906, people began to speak in tongues, which was a newer manifestation in their day. Many who led the previous revivals were the first to criticize this new move of God because they didn't understand what was going on. 

However, those who remained open and hungry for all God had for them, even if it looked different from what they expected, were able to embrace the new move of God in their day.

We need to be careful not to miss what God is doing because it comes in a different package than what we imagined. I want to encourage you not to throw out the baby with the bath water. Beautiful babies are born with a mess all around them. Don't be afraid of a mess. Keep your eyes on what God is doing, not on the counterfeits or on what He's not doing. If you don't understand what's happening, seek understanding and then yield to the leading of the Holy Spirit even if it feels uncomfortable.

In Matthew 14, Jesus came out to the disciples walking on the lake in the midst of a storm. 

Their friend was standing right there in front of them but they mistook Him for a ghost because He came out of context and not how they expected Him to come. Don't let the storms distract you from seeing Jesus.

2. Keep Focused

When you do find Jesus in the midst of the whirlwinds surrounding new moves of God, keep your eyes fixed on Him no matter what's going on around Him. As we stay focused on the one thing, our heart will burn with greater passion and fire for Jesus than ever before (Psalm 27). The origin of the word focus is influenced by the Latin word used for fire. What we focus on shapes our lives and determines who we will become. (Photo via Pixabay)

When we focus on Jesus and on those things He has entrusted us within each season, this will help make us ready. It's also important to make sure we're not holding anything that's not ours to carry this season or else we won't have open arms to receive what God is bringing next. A great and regular prayer you can pray to stay in the fire of His love is, "God, send Your fire in every area of my life and burn away anything that is not of You for this season. Refine and bring to the surface the gold." It's important to steward holiness and a consecrated life because the pure in heart will see God (Matthew 5:8).

3. Stay Full of the Oil

God wants us to stay full of the oil. It's so important that we steward the Secret Place in our hearts and spend time deepening our relationship with Jesus so that when the time comes to enter into greater depths with Him, we are ready (Matthew 25).

We are living wells and it is important to steward, guard, protect, deepen and open that well. Wherever we go, out of our bellies will flow rivers of living water (John 7:37-38).

4. Invest in Family

Family houses the revival fire. Relationships are so important, which is why Jesus always referred to God as His Father. There was connection there.

Ministry and fruitfulness flow from intimacy with God and also from a place of being knit together with the family of God. When not just one person seeks first the Kingdom of God, but a community does this together, it expands our capacity to carry what God wants to release. Seeking Him first in and with family will take you places you could never go on your own, beyond your wildest dreams.

5. Choose Love

"We need to be careful not to miss what God is doing because it comes in a different package than what we imagined."

Carrie Judd Montgomery (1858-1946), a healing revivalist who founded some of the earliest healing homes in the nation including the Home of Peace in Oakland, CA (still there to this day), chose to embrace the new experience of speaking in tongues many associated with Baptism of the Holy Spirit during the Azusa Street Revival. She, in fact, encouraged her friends to have this same experience. When her friend, founder of Christian and Missionary Alliance, A.B. Simpson, did not speak in tongues like all of her new Pentecostal friends, she didn't cut him off or think of him as lesser. She maintained and continued to grow in friendship with him because she valued relationships more than debates about non-essentials. We can learn from her example to choose relationships over and above denominational ties and differences in manifestations. Love is the key (1 Corinthians 13).

Don't Be Afraid to Shine

I don't believe in a nameless faceless revival. While we want Jesus to be the name above all other names and for everyone to participate, God will appoint and anoint leaders to help lead this generation into the more. There was a Moses, a Joshua, a David, an Evan Roberts, a William J. Seymour and other leaders who played a significant part in partnering with God to lead their generation into all that He had for them.

I am saying this to encourage myself just as much as I am exhorting you. Don't be afraid to shine, to lead and to be a voice. If God has anointed you as a leader, then LEAD! If people are following you then you know you're a leader whether you want to admit it or not. Don't hesitate to step into the fullness of leadership God has called you to walk in out of fear that you will become prideful or steal God's glory. Trust in Him and trust yourself.

If God has appointed and anointed you, He will walk with you through the favor. True leaders are servants and walk in great humility. The more you are honored, the more crowns you will have to throw at the feet of Jesus. If your influence grows, what an incredible opportunity to use that influence to impact even more people for JESUS! (Photo via Pixabay)

Steward, embrace and accept the gift God has entrusted you with. I urge you not to sacrifice the gift God has given you or sabotage the calling on your life because you're afraid to shine or you feel inadequate. Don't lay down the gift that He gave you to use and steward for His glory. He has given you your unique gifts to serve your generation in humility and love. Embrace the gifts He's given you so that you can become all He's destined you to become and to lift His name higher.

I bless you to step into your rightful position in this generation and to lead with great love and humility, fixing your eyes upon Jesus always, and step out in great faith as the Spirit leads you. And finally, I exhort you by the power and the Blood of Jesus to rise up. This generation needs you to be all who you are called to be. Today may you:

"Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you. See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord rises upon you and His glory appears over you..." (Isaiah 60:1-2) (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

"New Move of God Starts in Southern California" by Doug Addison

"New Move of God Starts in Southern California"by Doug Addison, Los Angeles, CA

From the Desk of Steve Shultz:

The prophets are saying a "new move of God" has begun and it's started in California. If you've noticed we've posted words from major prophets over the last couple of weeks of revival, and some movements that have started in California that will keep spreading. We are in exciting times!

If you're like me, you've seen these prophecies coming for several years and you've waited for things to finally begin to happen. Well, they are happening now!

Let me warn, caution or even encourage you to jump on board with this revival. If, during this revival, as prophesied, the least deserving and most unlikely people get saved, don't reject this move as some have done! Many of you were not around to observe that during the Jesus movement of the 1970's and many rejected the move because of the "hippie" element to those getting saved who wouldn't change their hair style or dress.

Let's not let that happen again, deal?

"New Move of God Starts in Southern California"

by Doug Addison, Los Angeles, CA

Book of Revivals

Since last Christmas I have been having encounters that are happening almost daily. In one, an angel gave me a Book of Revivals from Heaven. This is deeper revelation that is being opened up now regarding previous revivals of God.

This new revelation is about the moves of God over people and regions. I have been continuing to see the shift of "Keys of Authority" that were in the hands of those not using them or who became judgmental and used their authority to hold people down instead of building them up.

Judgments from those with authority to release and bless has been one of the major reasons why we have not seen a sustainable movement of God in North America in 22 years.

2016 Will Be a New Move of God

I released my 2016 prophetic word last month. In it I talk about "Why 2016 could be the start of something new."

There has been a move of God every 11 years in North America dating back to the Azusa Street Revival in 1906. The 11-year intervals fall on the 1950 Healing Movement, the 1961 Charismatic Renewal, the 1972 Jesus People Movement and the 1983 Third Wave Charismatic Movement. 1994 had the Toronto Blessing and 11 years later there would have been a movement that actually did start around 2005—but it was cut short because it was judged and bound by those who carried Keys of Authority.

The 2005 move started with unusual signs of God's glory such as gold fillings appearing in people's mouths and gold dust and gemstones appearing supernaturally in meetings. But the move never went global as God intended and was very limited.

Now 11 years later it is 2016, the year that we will indeed see something new start. Joshua Mills was one of the ministers who operated heavily in the 2005 "gold and glory" movement. I had a prophetic word for him and we talked on the phone the first of January this year. I told him that God is going to honor him because he honored God. Joshua told me that once again gold dust and oil began appearing on his hands that very week.

Dream: New Move of God

I had a dream that I was in a resort-like place in California. The new movement from God had come and the pool at the resort was all updated. People were swimming in God's presence. The water represented the Holy Spirit and many people were swimming. As we swam in the pool you could look down on the bottom of the pool and there were remains from previous moves of God.

The dream is showing that as God pours out a new move of the Holy Spirit it will be refreshing to many. Also it will be "new" and we will not need to operate in older ways of doing things. This new movement coming will be completely updated to fit and reach people in today's culture.

February 2013 in San Diego

God told me to look up prophetic promises from 2013 that have not come to pass. I looked in my journal and found some major things. One entry that stood out was called "The Sign of the Dolphins." On Valentine's weekend in February 2013, I was speaking at the Power and Love Prophetic Conference at Bethel Church in Redding, California. God spoke to me that there was going to be a major prophetic sign on the news on Valentine's weekend (2013) to show that His love is coming to people in need.

Sure enough, on the news the next day, there was a story about a massive seven-mile stretch of over 100,000 dolphins gathered off the coast of Southern California. Previously there had been thousands, but on that weekend it was estimated to be over 100,000 dolphins. It was a sight that could not be explained scientifically. You can read one of the many news stories about this phenomenon here.

This was a prophetic sign of a move of God that would come to San Diego in February and bring refreshment. And it would be seen by the entire world.

Symbolically water represents the Spirit and dolphins are encouragers. Many people said that the dolphins had gathered for the food in the area. In the same way, God is preparing a great banquet or party that is coming to Southern California that will impact the entire world.

I wrote this on my blog in February 2013.

San Diego Outpouring Starting Now

Joshua Mills and Jerame and Miranda Nelson held their annual Decree Conference last month in San Diego and indeed something new started. They began seeing a higher level of God's presence, glory and miracles. They extended their meetings and are now doing nightly "The Fire and Glory Outpouring" meetings in San Diego. You can join them live or watch the live stream online.

Linda and I visited these meetings and witnessed that, yes, this is the start of something new. It is in the early stages, but God spoke to me that by February 14, 2016 this will begin to spread and affect the world globally. This is the fulfillment of the 2013 Sign of the Dolphins!

Two Moves of God Coming

God showed me that there are two major movements coming. The first is a long overdue movement to revive and refresh the Church. This is what is beginning to happen in San Diego.

The second one is much more radical and it is what I have been prophesying for a number of years.

God's new agenda will be the spiritual outcasts, those who have been wounded and rejected by Christians.

Sadly, many leaders will be tempted to reject this new movement at first because it will be so outside the box of our current understanding of what is possible. This is why God is saying to prepare to be stretched.

Get ready to cross over into a new season of God's glory and presence. A new wave of God's love and power is about to sweep the world!

Blessings,
