word. He was led by the Spirit of God to pull out a map of America,
and his finger was led to the port city of Pensacola, Florida. The Holy
Spirit spoke to him that a revival would come to that city and would
spread like fire across America. That is exactly what happened.
Now, back to the prophets who came to the revival. They prophesied
the three stages of revival would be: first repentance, second righteousness
(right living), and the third stage would be signs and wonders.
The five years of father’s day of 1995 to father’s day of 2000 the
phase of repentance was completed powerfully under the preaching of
evangelist Steve Hill. Millions were affected in this nation.
A Warm season of Grace Moving into a season of Judgment
The last five years from 2000 to 2005 have been a warm season of
grace from the Lord. The Lord has been gently calling for his people to
turn from their sin and live holy before him. The Lord has been patiently
standing at the door of the body of Christ and knocking (Rev
3:20), but he is about to bust through the door and clean house. Just
as we saw in Jesus’ ministry on the earth. He had zeal for his house
and with a whip ran those out that were money changers. He is about
to do the same again. His house has become a place of rebellion,
pride, competition, division, idolatry, and greed. He will again cleanse
as he casts down the idols and drives out the money changers from his
house. The last five years have been a season of grace for those that
have discerned it and allowed it in their lives. Those who have not discerned
this will find cleansing through judgment. We see in 1Peter 4:17
judgment begins with the household of God. I believe the Lord is fed up
with blatant rebellion against his word. We see in Hebrews chapters 12
through 13 how the Lord disciplines his children to bring about holy
lives. The Bible goes as far as to say that without holiness no man will
see the Lord. Jesus states this when he says only the pure in heart will
see God. The Lord is motivated with such love when bringing judgment
on his people. It is a sign that those who are being disciplined are the
children of God, for the Bible says he disciplines those he loves and
considers children (Hebrews 12:1­11).
At the end of Hebrews chapter 12 we see that what can be shaken
(that which is not of God) will be shaken, only leaving that which is of
the Lord, because our God is truly a consuming fire. Those that have
held on to things that are not of God, such as unrepentant sin, unforgiveness,
pride, rebellion against God’s word, criticism, and unrighteous
judgment (to name some things) will find themselves in a place of
discipline (judgment) from the Lord in the days to come. It will be painful
for a time, but it will ultimately bring about the good that is needed.
