Only in the ‘Gethsemane’ of pressure and squeezing, will the anointing oil flow. The Body of Christ must go through this, and the western church is at the beginning stages.

I saw the fire of God falling on His Church all over the world; and I heard the cries of the saints going up: We were being purged, cleansed, purified, liberated from things of this world - it was the liberation of crucifixion and we were crying out for it - in the midst of it - desiring deeply to be crucified with Christ (Gal 2:20). The fire was bitter-sweet; glorious because it was painful only to the flesh... We must choose: either crucify it, or perish with it.

Then after the fire of crucifixion came the rain of resurrection: - A trickle at first.  As the fire continued to burn in the saints, the  heavens were opened - and so were the tombs! And a Church that had been led by the Lord, all the way through the fiery furnace, began to emerge, as if rising up from the ashes: A resurrection - an awakening. 

Then as I watched, what had started out as a trickle of rain, suddenly became a torrent - all over the world - and a Church that had found the “ forth man in the fire” (Daniel 3) was now lifting up Holy hands (completely given over to Jesus) and radiating His power and glory - all over the world. 

They came up as an army (Ex12:51), fully equipped with the armor of God, but something in particular, struck me as significant: The church that came up from the tomb was, if you will, nameless and faceless. Each saint was robed completely in humility and their faces were covered by the helmet of Salvation. (These garments alone seemed to protect them from everything of this world). Everywhere they moved, they brought shafts of Light into the midst of deep darkness; everywhere they were, the blood of Jesus was right there with them...And I believe I was watching the beginning of one final push for the Gospel - one last and full-blown revival.


“And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Matt 16:18
