This a word I received that was published on Elijah List in October of 1997. It’s delivered in an old fashion style. Nevertheless, I believe this is still relevant for now even after 22 years.
“I am coming with a whirlwind mightier than any you’ve ever experienced. And so mighty is this wind that few there will be that can stand before the blast of My nostrils. And I will wipe away pain and sorrow and mourning and weeping. For I am coming again, mightier and stronger than before and there will be joy and laughter and vision. And the few that cannot stand My work will move away.
In this time of fallowness, prepare with prayer. Plow with supplications. Water with tears of intercession. Plant your requests before My throne for I am listening and ready to grant the desires of your hearts. Vestiges of the past turmoils are mere shadows before you and will fade into distant memories before the light of My presence and the glare of My abundant graces and mercies. Look beyond the shadows with faith and hope for truly I say to you that the dawn is near.
Churches will erupt with new song. Structures and ways of doing church will fall by the way. You thought that I brought disruption before, overturning tables before your sight, but I tell you this, that was nothing compared to the glory that is coming to My church. What you saw before, expect more of it in every way. Be brought to silence over your ways and see the way of the Lord. Did you think it escaped My notice on how you tried in vain to contain My Spirit? And did you think it escaped My notice that you tried in vain to facilitate My presence with your own understanding? Stand back and see Me work.
Be surprised and be awed by something more real and more tangible than before. I am coming with a rod of fury against unbelief and fear. Yes, I am coming to unravel lies and you will stand with mouths opened wide in shock and in wonder. I will roar and I will thunder from My Holy mountain and angels will fly down from My heavenly gates. Ministers of grace and mercy and healing and worship will come down upon you carrying My mighty word to you oh sons and daughters. Look forward, for I am coming in a mighty and new way with more power and authority than you’ve ever seen with your own eyes.”
