Jesus wasn't as concerned about the endorsements this minister had, as he was the actual works that were being done. I will always support gatherings where people come together in the name of Christ to seek a divine encounter with God. I believe God loves to show up, show off, and take all of the credit. I am thankful for the miracles that happen in people's lives when God touches them as a result of these corporate gatherings. I will never speak a word against anyone who is doing the works of Christ or at least giving people a place to come together to seek God in prayer and worship, however, my endorsement of any particular revival or ministry is also not necessary. The fruit or the continuing results of any true move of God will always speaks for itself. The "Upper Room" was the place where the disciples had a supernatural experience with the Spirit of God and were empowered for ministry, but they didn't stay inside that little room they were in! From that place, they carried the demonstration of the Spirit outside the four walls into the marketplace and turned the world upside down! That should be what follows any true "deposit" or "impartation" that comes from the Kingdom of God.

If we are to see something birthed or released from Heaven that will change our world, we must start with the basics that Christ taught about the Kingdom. We must pray for the Kingdom of God to come to the Earth, into our own world! The world will be shaken and even restructured in many areas when we begin to practice Christ's teaching regarding the Kingdom of God. Jesus said, "Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness." When Jesus taught the disciples to pray, He did not tell them to pray for the King Himself to come. He told them to pray for the Kingdom to come. When He sent the seventy out, He told them to heal the sick, cast out devils, and then to announce, "the Kingdom of God is near you." When He was approached by the Pharisees and asked when the Kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied and said, "The Kingdom of God does not come with observation; nor will they say, 'See here!' or 'See there!' For indeed, the Kingdom of God is within you." (Luke 17:20-21(verse 20) And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:

(verse 21) Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.Luke 17 verses 20-21) These are the words of Jesus Christ. When the Kingdom of God comes and His will is done on the Earth, it's not just spiritual changes that will occur, but it will impact every part of our world including the land, the economy, the governments, and the people. It's not about just building bigger churches. We have to stop focusing on the cheap thrills that make us ineffective to the world around us, and look for the manifestation of His purpose for each and every Kingdom in the world. God wants you and I to make a significant contribution in every part of our world, including business, politics, science, agriculture, medicine, sports, music, entertainment, and of course, the family! We must learn to "ask" Him to do more than just bless our church or meetings. Christ's teaching on the principles of "Asking and Receiving" implies a great importance, on our part, to ask for much more than just enough to help us and our small group. If we only pray for miracles and interventions that will benefit our own families, ministries, or churches, and never seek God's intervention for our regions, nations, those of other cultures, or anyone outside our own walls, then we are still selfishly motivated. The only "move of the Spirit" we would be welcoming, will be that which will fall grossly short of God's intention of manifesting the Kingdom of God in all of the Earth. You will never recognize Him when He comes; if He comes outside of what you have been programmed to believe He will look like, and it's possible you won't be open to Him, if you allow yourself to believe you've already found "the revival". No one will ever be able to copyright or exclusively claim the expression of God in any generation, because He simply refuses to settle into becoming the boring, mundane figure that religion has made Him out to be. Together, we must continue this journey to know and reveal Christ and His works to a generation that is sick and tired of religion.

As you probably know by now, the world is not going to come to the church to get saved. We, as the Church, must go into the world, just as the light must penetrate the darkness. Jesus Christ never invited anyone to the temple to come and hear Him. In fact, He was usually thrown out of the temple. He stepped outside the realm of religious influence to touch those who were busy in the marketplace. Instead of standing on our pulpits with moral measuring rods, screaming curses at this sinful world, we should be building altars in the presence of unholy people, and offering Him praise. We should be offering Life and Living Water to an adulterous woman, instead of gazing at her with lustful eyes and then stoning her later. We should be filling fishermen's nets with fish and then presenting the truth to them, instead of shouting about the potential evils of their "great catch." We should be met by demoniacs and lunatics at the entrance of a city, instead of being hailed by the politicians with red carpets. We should be commissioning new converts as the missionaries to the same regions where they were delivered, instead of indoctrinating them with irrelevant patterns and forms of religion, and then sending them to the "mission field." We should be expelled from the religious centers and temples for identifying the true enemies, (Luke 4:16-29), instead of being exalted as celebrities because of our "cliché preaching".
