Summary: Throughout history, great men have confidently prophesied a coming spiritual awakening. God's miraculous works will be so evident that even skeptics will be amazed, leading to a widespread turning towards God and exposing hypocrisy for what it is: worked-up flesh.

PREFACE SUMMARY

I clearly remember the overwhelming response I received from my radio programs when I talked about the forthcoming end-time revival. Despite many ministers advising me to read more of the Bible and find the scriptures that say, "Before the coming of the Lord, there will be a great falling away," I remain steadfast in my belief that there will be an end-time revival before the coming of our Lord.

As I was growing up, I belonged to an organization that believed that the miracles and gifts in the church had ceased with the Apostles. However, at that time, I was not aware of the various ministries of great men that God had used for miraculous healing. I was also oblivious to the 1906 revival at Azusa Street in Los Angeles, California, which sparked a worldwide Pentecostal movement. In retrospect,

I realize that my understanding of the supernatural aspects of Christianity was quite limited. But with time, God taught me the scriptures and led me to the baptism of the Holy Spirit, which resulted in my Evangelical Methodist organization withdrawing my license and expelling me from their church organization.

My conviction is rooted in (Revelation 19:7), which clearly states that the Lord is coming after a church that has made itself ready. This implies that something significant, such as severe persecution, may have occurred, which prompted the church to awaken to the signs of the times and to prepare sincerely to meet her Lord.

My conviction is also rooted in (Joel 2:28-29) where the profits speaks about a time soon on God's calendar where he will pour out his spirit upon all flesh. He goes on to speak about how this outpouring will be a spiritual awakening that will cause our sons and daughters to prophesy with our young men seeing visions and our old men being visited with dreams.

Beloved, some years back I found listed in the chronology of Adam the names as follows: (1) Adam (2) Cainan (3) Mahalaleel (4) Enoch (5) Methuselah (6) Lamech (7) Noah

Biblical Meaning: (Adam) = Mortal Man (Cainan) = Bearing Sorrows (Mahalaleel) = The Blessed God (Enoch) = The teacher - Came Down from Heaven Teaching (Methuselah) = His Death Brings (Lamech) = Despairing (Noah) = Rest

Notice how Methuselah the 5th from Adam was given a name which foretells the coming flood and the destruction of everything living upon the earth. The name means after his death, the judgement or deluge which means the flood will come, He lived to be 969 years of age and died during the days of the flood.

Just like the death of Methuselah was a warning to the generations back then, I believe that the end-time revival will be a time of great spiritual awakening and renewal, where people worldwide will turn to God and seek His face.

This revival will be preceded by great darkness, where the world will experience unprecedented chaos, wars, and disasters. However, I am convinced that God will use these events to draw people closer to Himself and prepare them for His Son's coming.
