Mill Wheel of Revival

I wish to share with all of you a prophecy given by our Pastor, Glenn Foster, of Sweetwater Church of the Valley (Glendale, AZ) on May 5, 1998:

-----------------

IN THE FINAL DAYS OF THIS CENTURY, and in the final days of the church age, revival shall become the main theme of all parts of the kingdom. The apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers will all concede and give one voice with one effort to bring forth the divine choice of revival in the earth.

It is springtime they will say, It is springtime throughout the whole Earth. There'll be no place without the rain of the Spirit. The word of the Spirit that came from Joel's lips continues to go before the church,... I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh.

The amazing consequence of this prophecy is that it has carried the infant church from the day of the baptism of the Holy Spirit, (in Acts 2), unto this very hour, in the spread of the revelation of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, that God will, in the last days, restore all the gifts, authority, and power to the followers of Jesus Christ, ...

THEREFORE, let the churches prepare....

I am changing gears, but I'm not slowing down, I am moving into a more comprehensive declaration of revival, but I'm not in any wise taking away from what I've already started. I'm not stopping something I've started, to start something never known of before. I'm blending more and more of the Gospel into the revival message. By the time I'm done, the entire book of Genesis to the book of Revelation, will be the instruments that contain the coals of fire for revival in all the Earth.

So stand beside the river and watch the Spirit move. Watch the surges, ...

There's a lot of shifting going on..... There will be some weeping and howling as some, thinking they were about to be promoted, discovered they're being given a fresh commission to go back to work at the same position, for which many will weep and sorrow. But I will turn their mourning into dancing, and I will turn their weeping into rejoicing when they come to the knowledge that the seed they sowed in tears, they are now going to reap in joy.

So get ready, O church, for tomorrow is here, and today is a day like never before. Just hold steady. ...

I chose this day to reveal my glory, because all men are disappointed in their morning. They thought a new day would mean they would have a new place, and they would have special privileges; but instead, they have more responsibility.

What are we going to say to these things? ... River of God, keep surging on....

As soon as the prophets of Baal laid dead, the God of Elijah opened His mouth and said, Away with Baal! Away with pleasure living!.... Return, return to the altar, and pray seven times a day, watching for the cloud, because that is where the revival comes in this way.

A little cloud appears while in prayer, but as one runs to the celebration, way off down there, Mt. Carmel seems so high, so broad, who could get down in time to be part of the throngs?

But Elijah out-ran the chariots. I tell you, in this day those who want to run from God will not be able to run fast enough. Those who want to run for God will out-run anybody that has ever run before. ..

Revival is in the air...

... Who is ready to put his hand to the oar, and row with the boat, headed toward shore? Who is ready to carry a bag, or two, or ten, filled with ground wheat to distribute throughout the land to hungry men? You see, the revival that's coming is going to feed the hungry. It's going to bring salvation and the message of deliverance....

The revival is here, so go ahead and clear out the dead wood. Wake up the sleeping ones. Tell them there's only two ways to run...either run to God, or run from His presence. You know what happened when Jonah ran from His presence...he fell into the midst of a great storm and was left in the belly of the whale, ...

Did I hear his prayer? Did I revive his soul? Did I have him spit out of the deep to go and let the message be told? Forty days... Repent or destruction will come.

You see, when it's revival time, it's responsibility day, also. When it's revival time, men are held accountable for their deeds. ...

O Pilgrim, on your journey, get up and be glad... Revival fires are falling at last. Never be negative from this hour on. Never say any church cannot get on with the business of revival. never say they're going down hill, they'll soon be gone,...

... Revival comes by the revelation of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord to those who seek God with all their heart.

There's another move coming,...

The message is clear, Get back to your post, because the hour for which we've prayed is now there. Don't go running after a renegade...just know that I will meet him at the other side of the hill. And will he ever be surprised when I bend his will, and say, GO, get over there. With his will bent toward my plan, he'll end up in his spot just at the right moment.... So Don't Be Worried About Your Brother...his times are in my hands. Just make sure you are yielded, no matter what the weather. Because this is the time which you have all sought for. I will melt down the mountains at my presence, and the valleys shall flow with milk and with honey, says the Lord."

God Bless you all.
