[revival-fire] Have We Lost it?

******* REVIVAL FIRE!!! *******    

I will confess – some of the Revival Fire posts have me boggled and scratching my head.  I do not want to argue nor do I feel Revival Fire is the place for that, yet let me make some clear understandings.

 

First Off – It does not matter how well liked a person is, who they know, what they have done previously.  It does not matter who supports or endorses them.  We are not selling a book or CD here, we are talking about Cities.  If it does not line up with the WORD OF GOD, then it is of no affect.  Stop talking about who knows who and who they are – we do not fear man but we fear GOD!  This word should not have carelessly been sent out, and even then, it should be stirring us to pray, not defend.  Those of you who feel it is of a solid nature, get on your knees and off of your computer.

 

Second – We cannot stand firmly on one section of scripture and negate the rest.  God understands His word and brings revelation with the whole Bible in mind, not just the part that fits into our agenda.  He also understands Kingdom order and the function of the Bride.

 

THIRD – I have not said that I feel this word is not from God, I may disagree however on where we go from here.  I do not feel that it is the FINAL WORD FROM GOD in any way shape or form.  I do believe that we can move and change the heart of God.  Yet all I see from this word is that the CHURCH NEEDS TO WAKE UP!

            Why was Sodom and Gomorrah doomed?  Was it there sin?  Does God not see all sin the same. It is all equal in the eyes of God. So why then would one cities be greater than another's?

            No – Sodom did not burn because of their unrighteousness, but it was due to the fact that the CRIES of the Unrighteous outweighed the CRIES of the Righteous.  This word has more to do with the church than it does with the UNSAVED!

 

Jesus said that we are the SALT of the earth.  WHO?  You and I, the CHURCH, the Disciples.  And if salt loses its saltiness then it is thrown out and trampled under the foot of men.

Where has the church been in the last decade?  The most ineffective religious structure. We have been thrown out and trampled under foot and God is trying to AWAKEN His bride to be what we were always supposed to be – SALT – LIGHT!

This is not a word for the unsaved of doom and judgment but a word to the BRIDE

Where is the cry of the righteous?

To much that has been given much is required!

God may be trying to get our attention.

Do I feel San Fransico will be judged?  Yeah – one day, the whole earth will be judged one day – BUT TODAY IS NOT THAT DAY!

So wake up Bride

Stop running scared and start being the warriors God created you to be.

Let's stop the nonsense and start impacting the world
