LESSONS FROM 70 YEARS OF MINISTRY: ‘WHAT I HAVE RECEIVED I PASSED ON TO YOU AS OF FIRST IMPORTANCE.’ (PART 14) AVAILABLE ON ITUNES, SPOTIFY, GOOGLE PODCASTS, YOUTUBE.
The day of visions is almost at an end. This is the day of fulfilment. Yes, I have a vision; this is why the Holy Spirit burns in my soul. But God is challenging you and me. God is putting a new power in the Church. In Numbers 27, Moses says this to God, ‘Let God choose a man, let God set a man over the whole people!’ The Lord answered Moses and said, ‘Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man on whom My Spirit rests.’ Joshua was already a man full of the Spirit!
I have a message for you: God has already chosen men; God has already put His power within them! There is no waiting. God says, ‘There are men now, men from your nation, and I have already put My power in them!’ We pray for revival, we wait for revival, and say, ‘If I had the power I would preach, if I had the anointing I would heal the sick, I would raise the dead.’ But God says, ‘The men I have chosen have the power already, at this moment, within them!’ Today! Now! The Holy Ghost is here! So often we are waiting for the Holy Spirit, for God’s power to move. But I ask this question, is there any power greater than that which raised Jesus from the dead, that fell on the day of Pentecost, and that has fallen on you? There is no power other than the Holy Spirit! If only we would get the vision of the power that has already been given to us who have received the Holy Spirit! Take the anointing by faith and go out and do it now!
Don’t talk to me only about a vision for the future. The vision is for now, today! I have the power – Pentecost fell on me – I have the glory of God – and so do you! The glory of God is here – just open your eyes and see! Get the vision. Mix your vision with faith. Act! Nothing is impossible!
Read Ezekiel 12:22 where God says, “What is this proverb you have: ‘The days go by and every vision comes to nothing’?” But, God says, “I will put an end to this proverb, and they will no longer quote it… The days are near when every vision will be fulfilled.” God is saying, in your church, in your nation, you are saying the prophet is prophesying about something that cannot happen for a long time, that Europe is not yet ready, it’s impossible. But He answers in verse 28, “None of My words shall be delayed any longer, the word I have promised will be fulfilled.”
God says, ‘None of My promises will delay any more. Everything I have promised – everything I have written, everything in the Book – all that you have believed for – is going to happen! The word which I have spoken shall be done. The day of visions is ended, now is the day of fulfilment!’
I speak on the authority of the Word of God. We must declare the power of God – because God has spoken! Today Europe is in spiritual bondage. But God wants to demonstrate His power in Europe. For over fifty years I have a vision of revival that burns in my soul. God will work greater miracles now than Europe has ever seen in its entire history!
