I’ve been reflecting on such a thing that there are replacements in the world. Man under fear of suffering, which is the younger sister of death, is afraid of change, shift. We all keep talking about changes that are coming, how we need them, but deep inside we don’t want them, because they provoke both work, and suffering, and doubt, and pain.
Desolation has come to the House of God. Samuel grew bigger and bigger. Look, the right law of discipleship was violated here. What happened? - A lazy pastor who didn’t notice that a young prophet was ascending.
But the true ark is the human body. The Lord chose this ark for Himself - He said: "I will dwell in them and I will walk in them." Today the ark is the temple of man. Somewhat different from the box!
David had to become a warrior. He overcame severe trials. This was not a simple man. Then he became a sweet singer - he had to play, he cast out demons out of Saul, then he took instruments of praise from the enemies, he established praise in Israel. And, not being an architect, he even made a drawing of the temple.
Man is the most complex and beautiful creation. Apocalypse is about the inside of man. The perfect shape of the ark is not a wooden box, but a human body. The wooden box was like an image of the heavenly, like a shadow.
There are several understandings of the gift. Many people, including even shepherds, do not know their gift. It's amazing when we supposedly release gifts in people's lives, but we don't know our own gift.
Lifting the gates is power in the Spirit, when you can carry the city gates on your shoulders in church, in your prayer services. You can carry, have fun in flight - this is the power of prayer, the power of prophecy, the power of prophetic proclamation, the power of the Spirit, the pressure in the church when you can lift the gates.
Now we're hearing news of a revival, There's a revival going on in America, in one of the universities. They say that simple youth gathered there and there are no "stars", and they come there from everywhere desiring to get into the meeting.
