Two Revivals Rising

As I've been seeking the Lord about this next season, He has been impressing something on my heart: His revival rain is coming, but the enemy will also release a counterfeit alongside it. The call is clear—be watchful, be discerning, and remain rooted in His truth."
A season of Revival Rain is at hand. God will restore all things back to Himself; Nations and people following after Christ. Revival rain will pour out from the throne room.
Pay close attention.
False revival will make its appearance just as God's Revival rain pours out (Mt 24:23-24). It will mimic true revival but bear no real fruit. “Walk as children of light...have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them (Ephesians 5:8-11)."
Do not be deceived. It will appear as light but will merely reflect God's true revival…the Son light. It will only be shadows of the divine.
Stay vigilant and focused.
Many will get caught up in the false; the facade.
DO NOT be one of them. (2 Thessalonians 5:4)
Constantly abide with the Lord so you do not miss it or get caught up in being tossed to and fro. Use discernment. This will not look as expected. Be one who knows the truth and remains free. (John 8:31-32).
In the beginning, crowds will be misled and lured by the spiritual, the mystical, the out-of-this-world phenomena. Many will be captivated and fall victim to this surreal illusion of the divine. Do not fall for it!
False revival will entice but leave you empty. It will promise transformation yet deliver only temporary experience. There will be signs without surrender, excitement without fruit, crowds without changed hearts. It will feel close to the real—close enough to deceive the sincere. But look: where is the repentance? Where is the fruit? Where is the abiding? Is Christ exalted or the experience? False revival gathers around an experience. True revival gathers around the King.
True revival is more than an experience. It is an encounter with the one true God. An interaction with your Creator. It carries divine purpose. Releases true transformation. Bears pure fruit. Births divine destiny.
True revival will draw a remnant in the beginning. Only a few will understand that God's revival involves more than emotions. It is a sustainable transformation. Freedom. Love. Something others can partake of.
It is about relationship and intimacy. Beyond human understanding. Supernatural. Divine. Pure. Transforming, reforming, renewing. True revival rain is the agape love that pours out from Heaven in response to a yearning so deep and a cry so loud that Heaven responds.
It begins as a hunger in the heart of God's children; a desire for more of Him, for only Him. From this hunger comes repentance and a hope for reset and reconciliation back to Him and His will. Revival is God's response.
There is an abundant overflow from true revival. Bountiful fruit. Not just fruit, but a harvest of souls and lives—a bringing in and gathering of new believers, an adoption into the eternal family (Ephesians 1:5).
True revival is an ignition that lights a fire that should never go out. It is a force that stirs up, sifts, transforms, and resets places, persons, positions…restoring and fortifying the current foundation of Heaven on earth.
Revival is God's response to a repentant heart that hungers for His presence alone. ”Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you...he will surely be gracious when you cry out...whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, "'This is the way; walk in it.'" (Isaiah 30:18-19, 21)
This overflow produces fruit—one fruit that carries a seed. A seed that bears promise and destiny. When the fruit is consumed, the seed is planted in the hearts of those transformed. They carry it forth and plant it in new ground. The same revival rain waters each new planting. The seed breaks open, producing new life. New life that births the becoming of the wholly devoted church, rightly aligned with Heaven, multiplying and advancing Heaven on earth. This is the fire that never goes out... burning across generations, spreading beyond borders, to the end of the age, sustained by Heaven itself." (Matthew 28:19-20)

This divine outpouring will be a true awakening, not a spectacle. “Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”(Ephesians 5:14) Those who perceive the hour and discern Heaven's movement will recognize it. Multitudes will be saved and restored. From this revival will emerge leaders; authentic shepherds cloaked in humility. Lives will be transformed. God will be glorified.
We will witness repentance that revives, resets, restores, and redeems what the enemy thought he stole and destroyed; a union of Heaven and earth, the divine merging with the natural, the Father reuniting with His children. A reconnection of hearts, souls, and spirits. An abiding born from awakening. A church arising, ablaze with the Spirit, moving in power and love as one. This is the divine design that began in Eden, a return to the beginning.
This is true revival. Accept no counterfeit. Be watchful. Be ready. Be faithful. Do not miss it.
The pouring out is a moment. The effect is eternal.
