I trust that God will give you that privilege of travail that very few people have had. Paul had it. I dont think a day goes by that I dont think of Paul travailing in birth. Look at his theological background. Look at the epistle to the Romans, look at his epistle to the Ephesians and yet with all that he is still craving that he may get near to the heart of God. I could wish myself accursed... my own death. I dont think you have to die a martyrs death to be a martyr. You can be a living sacrifice, you can die to advantages, you can die to temptations, you can die to privileges, you can die to all those things that dont add to spiritual life, that dont add to spiritual vision, that dont add to spiritual understanding. When God works in me, He is so altogether different from the theological concept I once had... Dont live in the immediate. Remember, Moses saw Jesus in the distance. I see Jesus coming to rule on the Earth. Not to die, not to be pushed around, but Hes coming to rule the Earth. The Word of God says at least some will reign with Him. Who? Who reigns with Him? The overcomers, overcoming temptation, overcoming the world, overcoming our own desires, being completely God controlled. I thank God for what He has done in my life. He hasnt stopped and He wont stop. The Word of God say, We shall all appear before the Judgment Seat of Christ. And, Will not the Judge of all the Earth do right? That is going to be awful, but if I didnt believe that I think I would go insane. Who is going to account for all the bloody massacre in Rwanda today? All the wars of the Earth, all the Generals, the Kings of England the Presidents of the United States, are going to stand before God. When He takes all the masks off and uncovers everything. Everybody - every preacher will stand before the God. This is the final reckoning day, I want to live with eternitys values in view. If we judge ourselves in the light of Gods Word we need not fear the judgment. If we walk in the light as He is in the light... thats all He asks of us, to walk in the light. And this is what I desire: That you would get more vision than Ive ever had. More will power than Ive ever had. More understanding than Ive ever had. God help us. This is the most difficult period in human history. Never have there been so many nations upside down. The World is like a ship caught in a storm: it has no anchor, it has no compass, it has no chart. I believe, you will live to see many from all over the world begging the Church of Jesus Christ to bring deliverance. They have ignored it, laughed at it, they have scorned it, but they will come to a place they are so politically helpless, so financially helpless, so morally helpless they will have to call on God. He is the only sure answer. One thought that amazes as I study the life of Noah is that there is no mention of his prayer life. But when I come to Ezekiel 14, the three most righteous men that ever lived, Noah is one of them, Job another and Daniel. What awesome prayers they offered, but there will come a time when God wont listen to you anymore. One fellow said, I just finished three years in Seminary. I asked him, Did anyone ever preach a sermon on eternity?... No. Did you ever hear a sermon on the judgment seat of Christ?... No. Did anyone preach a sermon on The Bride of Christ?... No. The man burst into tears. I said, In Gods name, why do you go to seminary? To learn how to bury the dead? There is an eternity in front of us! There is a world that now is in more rebellion than ever! As in the days of Noah they rebelled against God. For 100 years Noah never preached a new message, he preached repentance, he preached righteousness. Alexander White used to say, You can preach divine healing, you can preach prophecy, you can preach anything, but you cant preach righteousness; people wont have it. I still hope God will pour out His Spirit on all flesh. Let Him pour out His Spirit, not our man-made thing. We laugh and watch TV all night. When the burden of the Holy Ghost takes hold of you, you taste what happens in revival. I think revival preaching is open heart surgery. The other preaching isnt a semblance of the message. Im trying to say that as bad as it is, and we are living in the most critical hour in human history, God hasnt given up. Hes still not willing that any should perish. He still loves men and women. I want to be in that place where I can bear the birth pains. For years I finished every night of prayer meeting the same way. I would say, O Lord, dont say to me on that great day,daughter, I had many things to say to you but you could not bear them. You dont tell your family secrets to your little children. You want to talk to someone who understands. I BELIEVE GOD WANTS TO GIVE US EARS TO HEAR. I BELIEVE HE WANTS TO GIVE US NEW UNDERSTANDING. I BELIEVE HE WANTS TO GIVE US NEW REVELATION. Have your way with me Lord,for the glory of your Holy name! I love you.
