There
is no one that can stand in the incoming revival except through grace. But this
grace is only sufficient for all who call upon Him. This revival fire will
judge those that presume on false grace (presumptions that His grace will
always overlook our wrong doings and sins). This fire will wash away those who have
heard God's words but refuse to keep them. Presumption is the foundation of
false doctrine of grace.
God's judgment that comes in the form of
crisis works continually in the church and the life of believers. Every
difficulty a believer encounters is made to raise him towards the true grace
and power of God but this revival fire is a much greater crisis than ever
experienced by man- Matt. 24:21.
At
every time when darkness is covering the earth and deep darkness the people,
the Lord is rising upon them and His glory is appearing on them. This is the
ultimate clash between light and darkness and light will always prevail. The
judgment or crisis that is coming upon the church is first to prepare her for
the greatest glory she will ever know- the glory that will transform the church
into a pure and spotless lamb before the Lord.
Before
the Lord sends this crisis, He will send a clear warning to His people so that
we can judge ourselves. It is better to fall on the rock and be broken than to
allow the rock fall on us and crush us to powder. If we devote ourselves to the
discipline of holy living; repent and remove sin that has entangled us in many
ways, we will not have to endure the crisis that has been prepared- 1Pet. 1:6-7.
The Lord disciplines those He loves and this
revival is coming because He loves us. The storm will come upon every house,
but those who hears and acts upon His words will be vindicated- Ps. 32:6.
