Introduction & Review

Speaker 1

In our previous episode, we shared about a coming great visitation, a rebirth of the church that would change everything. In this episode, we share the two powerful realities that will be released when this great visitation comes. We'll also give you a prophetic glimpse of what these next level church services will look like when it comes to visit. Then stay with us to hear what King Jesus is saying to you and his glorious end-time army. You don't want to miss this. Welcome back to the Shekinah Today Podcast with your host, Darrel and Cindy deVille.

Speaker 2

Well, hello, everyone. This is Cindy, and we are just so blessed to be able to connect with you through these podcasts. And today we're continuing to walk through our new book, Rise of the Glorious Church. And we are now today going to be talking about part two of chapter three, the rebirth of the church, which I love that title. The last episode we shared about the coming great visitation, which was such a powerful word that will bring a rebirth of the church.

Reveal Two Transformative Realities & Why

Speaker 2

And now, with the great visitation, comes two powerful realities that will be released and unleashed.

Speaker 1

That's right. And they are one, a great cleansing, two, a great glory.

Speaker 2

Amen.

Speaker 1

First there's a great cleansing, then comes a great glory.

Speaker 2

It's like one precedes the other.

Speaker 1

That's right.

Speaker 2

We believe that right now there is a call going out from the Spirit of God and has been for some time to cleanse, purify, make ready the bride. Because before great glory comes, there must come a great cleansing and a great setting of things, putting things in order. As Malachi 3, one through three speaks of a sudden visitation to his temple, coming like a refiner's fire to cleanse and to purify and to make things right.

Speaker 1

That's right. And this is what Malachi 3 actually says. And the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple. But who can endure the day of his coming? Who can stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner's fire and like a launderer's soap. He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver. He will purify the sons of Levi, no, that's the priests, and purge them as gold and silver. That's Malachi 3, 1 to 3. You see, scripturally, we're going to show two examples here that before great glory must first come great cleansing.

Speaker 2

And you know, that is actually what we've been seeing, and we've been saying this for some time, that people are wondering what is going on with the church. Why are we seeing this happen and this being exposed and all these things? It's like, oh my goodness, the church is such a mess. But we need to understand that God is working, and that's why we're seeing a lot of these things come to the surface. That's right. There is a cleansing, there is a purifying, and God is preparing us, the church, for the glory of the Lord to be revealed at a level we've never seen, because that's what we are going to have to operate and have in these last days.

Speaker 1

That's so right, honey. And this also again reminds us and points back to the seven in time doors, door number three.

Speaker 2

That's right.

Speaker 1

Which was all about fire and great cleansing, right? Yes. That was the part of the preparation process for them what came after that. And if you haven't seen that episode yet, I encourage you to go look at that, go watch that, go listen to that. It's very powerful.

Speaker 2

Well, it's interesting because on the graphic, the fire itself, you'll see some blue in there. Yes. And that blue is that's where the intense heat is. But that blue, just think of that as also the color of water. It represents that cleansing as well.

Speaker 1

That's good, yeah.

First Biblical Example of Great Cleansing Followed by Glory

Speaker 1

So two biblical examples that show that cleansing is followed by great glory. The first example is when Jesus first cleansed the temple, then came great healing and great miracles.

Speaker 2

Yes. And we realize when we look at that scripture, Jesus was consumed with the great love and a zeal for his father's house. That's right. He cleansed the temple because he was consumed with that. He overturned the tables of the money changers, those misusing his house, and he reminded them. Just listen to this. All of this he did because he wanted to establish and make it clear, my house shall be a called a house of prayer for all nations. And that's Matthew 21, 12 through 14. That is, he was establishing it right there. That's right. This is what I want my house to be. Not a house of just entertainment or just fellowship or just, but at the core, it has to be a house of prayer because that's where the power is. That's right. That's where his presence is.

Speaker 1

And then after he cleansed the temple, he proceeded to do great wonders and great miracles in the temple.

Speaker 2

Yes.

Speaker 1

And see, Jesus is coming to cleanse his temple once again to remove the hindrances and then bring great healing and wonders. And again, we see the sequence of this first great cleansing, then great healing in doors three and four from chapter two, from our previous episodes of the seven end-time doors. Amen. If you haven't seen that, be sure and go watch that. And

Prophetic Word Revisit – Everything Will Change

Speaker 1

again, this points also back to our previous episode in the prophetic word called Everything Is About to Change. Yes. We'll just do a quick review of what this word said.

Speaker 2

And this is from our last episode, but we just want to share this with you once again. He said, For this is why I came, and this is why I come to destroy the works of the evil one. For I will come with great demonstration, and I will come with great power. I will change, I will deliver, and I will heal my people this hour. I will cleanse them. And if ever the church needed that healing, that cleansing, that all of these things is now.

Speaker 1

That's right. That's right. And see, a key truth is this this great visitation, God's glory, is not coming to entertain us, it's coming to change and transform us.

Speaker 2

Amen. Amen.

Speaker 1

This will involve a process that begins by cleansing and sanctifying his house. He will cleanse, he will purify, and open up the blinded eyes. And when he comes and the healing begins, he'll make all things new. Yes. Just like in door four of chapter two.

Speaker 2

Yes. Amen.

Speaker 1

This

Confirming Word by Jeremiah Johnson

Speaker 1

also reminds us of a confirming word by Jeremiah Johnson. When he was shown this, there's a boom coming to the upper room. But before the boom comes the broom.

Speaker 2

And you know, it's amazing because when when you start listening, you know, as a listener and one that maybe follows the prophetic, if you're listening to some of these very pure prophetic voices, you're going to start hearing a consistency. Oh, so-and-so said this, and so did this person. God is confirming his word. Holy Spirit is not double-minded. He's not going to speak all these different things.

Speaker 1

That's right. And this reminds us of the word we shared a couple episodes ago about judgment coming to the pulpits of America. And you can read that on our website, but also you can hear the full word on our episode five, the first part of the seven end-time doors.

Speaker 2

Yes.

Why Each Episode & Sequence Matters

Speaker 2

And we want to encourage you, you may be listening to this episode and have not heard the others. This might be brand new to you, but we highly recommend you go back and listen to every episode so that you can see, or you can even go on our website, and I believe the seven door vision is on there. And but mostly it's it's laid out clearly in our book as well. That's right. But we want to encourage you to actually sit down and read it, listen to the podcast because you will see this is very prophetic, the plan and what God said he's gonna do in his church and the process of it.

Speaker 1

That's right. Each episode builds on the next. Yes, it does. Just like in our book. In fact, if you haven't got a book yet, we really encourage you to get it, Rise of the Glorious Church. Yes. It's powerful, it goes into a lot more details of everything we're gonna be covering, but it shows the sequence and how things build and progress into the fullness of what God wants to do in his church and through his people, through you.

Speaker 2

He will have, as he said, I will have a glorious church. That's right. And she will rise up and do great wonders in the earth. And he knows people, he knows church how to get us there. And as we keep saying, we just have to surrender to that process.

Speaker 1

That's right, that's right.

God’s Motivation & Process

Speaker 1

Keep in mind God's motivation, all of this is love for his bride. Yes. The refining fire is not coming to harm us, but to help us and prepare us for next level glory.

Speaker 2

Amen.

Speaker 1

Part of that cleansing is a time for us all to examine ourselves, right? Yes. Like it says in Hebrews 12, says, lay aside every weight of sin which would so easily ensnare us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.

Speaker 2

And that's the key. It's fixing our eyes, our heart upon him, because only by the power of his spirit, this work he wants to do in you and through you will only be done by the power of his Holy Spirit. And that as again we surrender.

Speaker 1

So the first example of cleansing followed by great glory was the example of Jesus first cleansing the temple, then came great healing and great miracles.

Second Biblical Example of Great Cleansing Followed by Glory

Speaker 1

Yes. The second example is Isaiah 4. The Lord is speaking through the prophet Isaiah that Zion, a symbol of the church, would go through great purging and cleansing. Then the Lord declares he will make it a glorious dwelling place for his people. And I'll read this in Isaiah 4, verse 5 says, Then the Lord will create above every dwelling place of Mount Zion, again, a symbol of the church, and above her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and a shining flaming fire by night. That's the glory of God.

Speaker 2

Yes, his manifest presence.

Speaker 1

That's right. So here we see that sequence again. First great cleansing, then great glory. Great cleansing removes any hindrances for greater glory to come. Then as we shared in our last episode, God doesn't want to just come visit us, he wants to come and establish a habitation among us.

Speaker 2

Amen.

The Process & Result Reviewed

Speaker 2

And we know that we are cleansed by the blood of the Lamb. We know that. But there is that daily sanctification, that washing of the word to sanctify and to prepare us to for greater depths and greater works. That's right. And all of you listening, you may be at a different level of that journey. You may have just recently been saved, or maybe you've been walking with the Lord a long time, but there is a process he will walk us through, which we share in future chapters.

Speaker 1

Yes, especially chapter five. That is a golden chapter that covers that in some good detail. It's really great. You don't want to miss that. All right. So we've talked about two examples of great cleansing first, and then great glory comes after that. With Jesus cleansing the temple, then great healing and miracles. Yes. Then Isaiah 4 talks about a great cleansing. Then after a great cleansing, God establishes a glorious dwelling place for him to inhabit and dwell.

Speaker 2

And you know, those are just two scriptures we share, but we really see that model, that process in several areas throughout scripture.

Speaker 1

For

Sneak peak + Break & Invitation

Speaker 1

sure. Next, we're going to share a prophetic glimpse and exhortation of a greater end time glory coming.

Speaker 2

Yes.

Speaker 1

And also what next level services will look like. A glimpse of that as well. It's very powerful. Then stay with us for what Jesus is doing and saying to you and his glorious end-time army.

Speaker 2

Oh, I look forward to this.

Announcer

Yes, we'll be right back. Decades ago, God began shaping within Darrel and Cindy a grand vision, revealing his end time plans and blueprints for what he's about to do in his church and in the nations. And now the time has come to share these from their new book, Rise of the Glorious Church. To learn more about all this, we invite you to watch our engaging and prophetic trailers and inspiring shorts on our new Shekinah Today YouTube channel. Then subscribe, share, and see more details on our website at shekinatoday.org.

Prophetic Glimpse/Word of Great End-Time Glory Coming

Speaker 1

All right, welcome back. And we're excited to share next with you a prophetic exhortation and glimpse of greater end-time glory coming.

Speaker 2

Amen.

Speaker 1

So we'll get right to it. This happened one night in prayer. The Lord spoke this to us and said, There's a manifest glory and presence coming at a level we have not seen before. It will be seen, the glory. Many will come clean and will be driven to their knees.

Speaker 2

Wow. And then he spoke this, saying, From glory to glory, you will arise. From the earth to the skies, my church will arise. Now we realize, you know, he's going to return for us and we will be caught up with him. But he's just talking about rising up in the earth here. That's right. From the earth to the skies, my church will arise. I will mend the broken pieces. I will repair and restore the breaches. For I says the Lord, I will come. I will come and do what no man can do among you. I will come and you will be changed. And my church will bring glory to my name. For there is nothing the enemy has done that I cannot come and undo. I will come and I will visit you. And I will cause my glory to shine through you, in you, around you, and over you. And it will be your guard. That's just so powerful. I just sit here and meditate on what God. This is what he's saying. This is what he's speaking over his church. And he's saying, This is what I'm going to do. That's right. This is what I'm going to do. But look what he says. When he says, I will come and do what no man can do among you. That is the secret church. It's him. That's right. Him coming, him moving among us, walking among us. And we have to create that environment for him to do that.

Speaker 1

That's right.

Speaker 2

For him to

An Important Truth & Warning

Speaker 2

come.

Speaker 1

As amazing and wonderful as all of that is, there's one really important truth of warning we must keep in mind.

Speaker 2

Yes.

Speaker 1

That when the glory of God comes, it's like a double-edged sword. On the one side of the sword, it's great healings and miracles and amazing and all of that. But it also brings tremendous conviction of the Holy Spirit and even judgment.

Speaker 2

Yes.

Speaker 1

The reality is God's glory must not be taken or treated lightly.

Speaker 2

Amen.

Speaker 1

For the greater the degree of glory and anointing upon the church, the greater degree and swiftness of God's judgment. Just like in the New Testament church, Ananias and Sapphira, they lied to the Holy Spirit. And what happened? They were struck dead. He was setting a precedent of how this is very serious.

Speaker 2

And when that happened to them, what happened? It caused the fear of God to sweep across the church. That's right. Knowing that, oh, oh, God's in the room. This is kind of serious.

Speaker 1

See, that's why the cleansing must come before the glory shows up. Because if the cleansing has already taken place, there's going to be a lot of Ananias and Sapphira is happening. Yes when the glory of

Embracing the Fullness of God

Speaker 1

God shows up. So the cleansing must come first as part of God's mercy and goodness. It is. And it's really Romans 11, 22, which says what? It says, Behold both the goodness and the severity of God.

Speaker 2

And that's where, you know, we see over the past decade or so where the church has just wanted to embrace the one side of God, the goodness of God, and not understanding the fear of the Lord and the severity of God and the power of God. And because of that, they've just embraced one side of who he is. We have to embrace him for all that he is in all his glory. And what has happened because of that, the church has become very compromised, sin-filled, and just and it's sad. And so that's why God is coming now and has come and is working. He's cleansing, purifying, exposing, and removing those things that will hinder him.

Speaker 1

That's right. Because listen, when the glory of God shows up in a powerful way, just like in the New Testament church, the fear of the Lord comes with it. Yes. And that's

The Fear of the Lord Will Return

Speaker 1

what we want to share next about a glimpse of next level services. We are the fear of the Lord where we turn.

Speaker 2

Amen.

Speaker 1

It's a powerful glimpse of what God wants to do. See, God's committed to cleanse and purify his church. He wants to raise her up to be glorious, to do great wonders in the earth as a sign to all the nations of his coming kingdom.

Speaker 2

Yes.

Speaker 1

So when his presence comes in a next level way, it won't be for goosebumps or entertainment purposes. See, these glorious church services are not going to be just let's worship and feel the presence of God, right? God is coming in awe and wonder to clean house, set the captives free, transform lives, then the fear of God will return.

Speaker 2

Yes. Amen. Yet when the reel of glory God comes, it will be the most glorious and terrifying experience you'll ever have, and you'll never want it to end. That's right. Because it's just something about his presence. When his raw presence comes into the room, it's like, who can stand when he walks into the room like a sweet perfume? But he's going to come first with a bar of soap and a broom. That's right. Like Jeremiah Johnson said.

Speaker 1

Yes,

Prophetic Glimpse of Next Level Services

Speaker 1

I love that when he comes into the room like a sweet perfume. Yeah. He's also coming with a bar of soap and a broom. Wow. This is a glimpse of next level services that many will come clean and be driven to their knees in genuine repentance before the King of Glory. By his Spirit, bondages will be broken, bodies healed, lies restored and transformed. We're going to see the power of God manifest greater than ever before.

Speaker 2

And if ever there was a time we needed this, is now. That's right. It is now. That's right. The awe and the fear of the Lord will return to his church. As a result, the glorious church will then enter into higher dimensions in the Lord. God has saved the best for last. That's right. And you know, this reminds me when we talk about the fear of the Lord at John Bevere's book on the fear of the Lord that he recently released, which is very powerful.

Speaker 1

Great book. If you haven't seen that or gotten that book yet, go ahead and get it. Yes, Awe of God by John Bevere. So first we see a great cleansing comes, then a great glory, and the fear of the Lord will return. And then God will take us to a whole new dimension and level. Amen. In raising up his glorious church. And

The Coming Great Separation & End-Time Army

Speaker 1

with this cleansing, we also see a great separation that comes. With this cleansing also comes a great shifting, a great sifting, you could say. Yes. And a great separation comes that will separate those that will become part of his great end-time army. Yes. That will be unlike anything we've ever seen before.

Speaker 2

Amen. I remember him saying, I think it was in the Great Visitation word where he said that I will separate the precious from the vile. That's right. The real from that which reeks in my nostrils. And it's like, oh, wow, okay.

Speaker 1

That's right. See, Scripture says in Matthew 22, 14, says, Many are called, but few are chosen. Think about this like a special forces unit in the military. There have been and will be times of great personal sacrifice and vigorous testing to be sure we are equipped and ready for high level service. And you've probably heard about this that typically only a small portion of people that enter special forces training, just like in the Navy SEALs, what they call Hell Week, only a small portion remain and prove that they are actually ready. And likewise, God is preparing an end time army to rise up that would be unlike anything we've seen before.

Speaker 2

And that's so true. So as God spoke in the great visitation word, there is coming a separation. The shaking of the end time storm, along with persecution, will bring separation of the wheat from the tares, a separation of the sheep from the goats, the real from the false, a separation between the true praying church and those just playing church, a separating of the real men of God from the boys who just want to play with their toys. And it that's pretty amazing there because God is. I'm trying on every side because he wants to see, are you ready? Are you ready for this? And that's just part of the process. That's right. It's like a Gideon's army. God will separate those who are fully devoted from the rest. Those truly obedient to God's voice will come in great unity with one heart, one mind, and one purpose. And we see the scriptures here, Ephesians 4 13, Galatians 2 20, Matthew 6, 10. But I think of this scripture to whom much is given, much is required. That's right. And if God is going to have his people filled, walking in the glory, the power, the anointing of God, we need to be tested and tried because with great power comes great responsibility.

Speaker 1

That's right.

Speaker 2

And we have to be ready to carry that, otherwise it will destroy us. That's right. And so we got to be ready to contain and carry. God wants us to be bearers and carriers of the glory of God. And we know that that is Christ in us, the hope of glory. And so it has to be less of us, and that's what he's kind of burning out, is the flesh. That's right. Less of us and more of him.

Speaker 1

That's right. And see, part of God's great end time plan is to have a great end-time glorious army that will arise and shine in the power of Christ and be unlike anything seen before. And they will shake nations and they will arise and shine on a great end time rescue mission for multitudes of souls as never seen before.

Speaker 2

You know, I just think of this as we're talking, is I think of like the nuclear bomb, for example. If you are your responsibility is to guard and care for that nuclear bomb. There's so much power there. There, you have got to be high level to be able to carry that. Just think of that. Because it can be, if not used correctly, it can be dangerous. That's right. And Can hurt more than actually help.

Speaker 1

And what's interesting is that years

Jesus Inspecting the Troops

Speaker 1

ago, honey, you had a vision of Jesus walking through the rows of troops that represented the church. And what was he saying?

Speaker 2

Yeah, I'll I'll never forget this vision. It was pretty amazing. And he was walking through the troops. So it was like walking through the church and then representing troops. And I'm seeing him walking through rows of troops. He was investigating, he was looking at them. He's pointing and he's saying, I'll take you and you and you. I know you'll follow through. I know you'll do what I'm asking of you. So that's kind of the test there. And see, that's where he's testing and trying us. And sometimes it's it's not always easy. You know, when you're taking a test, it's not always easy.

Speaker 1

That's right. And to be clear, this is not about salvation or his love for us. This is about an evaluation and completing the mission. It's an evaluation of troops to see who's ready to lead, to stand on the front lines and be used as part of God's special forces.

Speaker 2

Amen. Well, you know, because if we're not ready, think of in an army, you put troops out there on the front line. If they're not ready, they're going to be taken out quickly by the enemy.

Speaker 1

And you cost other people's lives.

Speaker 2

Exactly. And so we, and that's why you see we continue to pray regularly for those in the pulpits of America, for the leaders. And that's why we're seeing a lot of shifting taking place right now, a lot of exposing, a lot of things coming down, and because God's going to raise up a whole new breed, we believe, that are ready to take the church into the enemy's territory, reveal the glory of God, and transform lives, families, cities, and nations and souls.

Speaker 1

That's right. Go into the enemy's camp. Jesus, as our commander in chief, has been testing and trying his people to see if he will be part of his great in time army.

Prophetic Word: When the Lines Are Drawn in the Sand

Speaker 1

So this is separation coming.

Speaker 2

Yeah.

Speaker 1

And lines are being drawn in the sand. So as we close out this chapter, we want to share this prophetic poem the Lord gave Cindy during prayer. We believe this speaks to us today, not only as God's people, but also on behalf of the nation when you look at it. God is looking for strong, reliable leaders in this hour.

Speaker 2

Amen. So I'm just, I'm going to read this, and it's it's just powerful. And we've shared this many times online. It says, when the lines are drawn in the sand, on whose side will you stand? Will you say, as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord? Or will you compromise and lay down your sword? God is looking for strong leaders in this hour, those who will not bow down are power, not to money or to man, but marching to the drumbeat of God's commands. So what will you do when the pressure's on? Will you stand tall or will you go AWOL? Will you stand and fight or will you take flight? It's time to decide who you will serve. Will you follow the crowd or will you live your faith out loud? Will you hide it under a bushel or set it on a hill? Surely you must know God's will. And that word is so powerful. And when this came, there was so much being released in our nation. And a lot of people, when we saw this in the churches and this, this even this divide, we saw the churches that were aligning with the with uh very ungodly things. They chose to compromise, they chose to lay down the sword, which is the word of the Lord, which is truth. And so, and there's and we've seen this, this separation taking place, and so much uh since his word was given.

Speaker 1

That's right.

Speaker 2

It's exactly what God's been doing. And that's where we have to choose each day. Whose side are we gonna stand on? You know, and it may not be easy when you take God's and stand on God's side, you it may cause some persecution, it may cause betrayal, it may cause people to lie about you, but you have to you have to make that decision. Are you gonna bow down or cower? Are you gonna allow money or man to rule you? And so this is really a big deal, and very important. And this is what God was asking his people.

Speaker 1

And so we see as Joshua, God is saying right now to his people, be strong, have courage. Amen. This Joshua 1, 6, 7, 9, 18. Our strength and our courage is found in the Lord, and we must fully submit to his leadership and obey him.

Speaker 2

Amen. Amen.

Special Overview of Chapters 1, 2, and 3 Process

Speaker 1

So we see God is preparing a great and glorious church to rise up, first through a great cleansing, then coming a great glory. And as you see the seven time doors we spoke about, it shows a process of that. A full this is just showing a little more details. Yes. So we see in all of this first part of the book, chapters one, two, and three, it's all pointing to the process that God is taking his church through to rise up glorious, greater than we've ever seen before. Amen. In unprecedented unity, power, and glory. Amen. Now, this won't happen overnight. As we said, it's gonna be a process. It will be a process of awakening, cleansing, purging, healing, unity, and then rising up glorious, ready to run, ready to roar and soar.

Speaker 2

Amen. Amen. As we prepare to close out,

Personal Level Focus Next…

Speaker 2

we need to remember that the rising of the glorious church begins with each of us on a personal level and culminates in a supernatural corporate unity to carry out God's end-time plan and purpose. This all begins by having a clear understanding of God's original plan and purpose for us, along with the five glorious church fundamentals, which we'll be covering in future episodes.

Speaker 1

So, yes, our next episode, we start covering part two of the book, which is the glorious church on a personal level. In fact, we call it the living glorious church. I love that. Because there's the personal level, there's the corporate level, the buildings and the assemblies and the people as a mass, a whole, but this is the living glorious church. And so it's really powerful because chapter four starts going into God's original glorious plan and purpose for you, his people, and how you fit into his grand plan and scheme of things.

Speaker 2

It's so important to understand that beginning, that's right, and his heart and his plan to, and we build upon that.

Speaker 1

That's right. And then after that, we cover the what we call the five glorious church fundamentals that every Christian must know in order to walk in the fullness of all God has really called you to be.

Speaker 2

That's right.

Speaker 1

And so this first episode, this first part of the book, has been kind of setting this all up. Now we're gonna be shifting gears on the next episode on a very personal level, and you do not want to miss these. Amen. They're gonna be great. Amen. They're very inspiring, and really bless you, we believe.

Speaker 2

And again, we encourage you to get the book. That's right. So you can follow along with us because you may not be able to have the time to listen to the podcast, but you can take time each day to read from the book. That's right. And that's what we encourage, that's why we're doing these podcasts. We want to point everyone to the book and the message of the book because we believe it is not only life-changing, but it is church-changing, it is nation-changing. And so we will continue to encourage you to go back and to read and go through the book.

Speaker 1

That's right. And also it gives you a chance to underline and just really meditate on things and look up the script. We have our books underlined and highlighted. Yes, yes.

Speaker 2

Well, we have a dear friend, and she's like, and she was telling me, she's like, I have the book. And she says, I'm looking up every scripture and digging into scripture, and I love that. And that's why we wanted to be sure God's word is just weaved throughout so that you can study for yourself and look those scriptures up yourself and let the Holy Spirit speak to you in the moment.

Speaker 1

That's right.

Personal Application & Questions

Speaker 1

All right, and then from a personal application, some questions to ponder here. Will you be ready for the King of Glory's visitation? Yes. He's coming to visit. Will you be ready for that? And then the other question, will you be part of God's special end-time army?

Speaker 2

Those are really good questions. And you know, the main thing in this is just surrendering. Say, yes, Lord, I want to be a part, I want to be in the middle, and this is my prayer. I want to be right in the middle of everything you're doing. I want, I want all of you. And a quote I often use and we've shared before is that if you want to win, you got to be all in. That's right. And that that so applies here. God wants all of you, He wants all of us, because it's when we lay it all out before Him and give Him every little piece that He can come in and turn it into a masterpiece.

Speaker 1

That's right, absolutely. And a key action on a personal level is Hebrews 12, 1 to 2 says, Cast aside any weight and sin that will hold you back and pin you in so you can rise up. Glorious.

Episode/Chapter 3 Review

Speaker 1

In the previous episode, in this episode, we've been walking through chapter three and just a quick review of this. There's a new and greater act to coming that we need to prepare for. Remember, he said, prepare your fields for rain. That's right, for I am coming.

Speaker 2

He said, Prepare, prepare, O man of God, prepare everywhere in the great visitation.

Speaker 1

That's right. And Jesus is coming with a sudden great visitation to bring a rebirth of his church. And part of that word he spoke about that was really powerful. He says, Everything will change in his church, and no longer will she be called a reproach or disgrace, but she will be called by a new name. Glorious. Yes. Amen. We also shared in the previous episode about the church's need for a paradigm shift from a revival focus to a habitation focus, from Pentecost focus to a feast of tabernacles focus. Again, going from the Pentecost was like an appetizer. The feast of tabernacles is like the whole feast. It's coming on a whole new level that God wants to do. He doesn't want to just visit us, he wants to abide and habitate with us. So there's coming a great cleansing, then a great glory. And as God's glory comes, so would the fear of the Lord. And in all this, God's preparing and assembling a great end-time army.

Speaker 2

Amen.

Speaker 1

That will rise up in the greatest rescue mission ever seen.

Speaker 2

Yes. Amen.

Speaker 1

And

Speaker 1

Speaker 2

Yes. You know, the first part of the book, the first part that we have shared so far, really is like casting a big vision. That's right. A big vision of okay, here's where God wants to take us, here's what he's doing, here's what he wants to do. And now we start moving forward and break it down.

Speaker 1

Yes. Now we start focusing on the personal level, what he wants to do in you personally. Exactly. So he's kind of shown the corporate level what he wants to do. Now we're going to show what he wants to do in you and why to do that. Amen.

Speaker 2

Amen.
