God gave me a vision for Miracle Valley. And that vision is to raise up classical Pentecostal preachers. You may ask, "What do you mean by classical?" Well, I certainly do not mean "classical" as simply something "old." I mean "classical" as something that is "original and real."
Are you know tired of the phoney and fake? I know I am. When it gets down to it, anybody can tell the genuine from the counterfeit. Many people in today's church world do not have the faintest idea of the real move of the Spirit of God.
Some years now, someone was visiting with me. This particular person believed in lots of people waving flags during the worship services. I asked him, "Why do you wave flags? Why is that so important to you? What is it's purpose?" The person responded by saying, "When we wave the flags or banners, that moves the air and get the Spirit of God moving in the services."
I could not believe my ears. There is absolutely no where in the New Testament where it is even remotely stated that moving the air brings the Spirit of God. There is only one way to have the Spirit of God in our services and in our lives, and that is, to live a holy, godly life and spend time with God in prayer. There is no other way.
One person spoke with me a year or so ago and stated, "I am rethinking my theology." I asked, "What do you mean?" The person said that they were taught to believe that God heals every sickness and disease and that we have that power to declare it to me. However, the person had two very precious loved ones to recently pass away, even though all involved did not confess their sickness or cancer, but declared life instead.
The above examples are directly from the Charismatic Movement and their own theology.
What the entire Church world and our nation needs is a genuine revival and move of the Holy Ghost. It will never happen through worldly and carnal preachers and their churches. It will only come from bended knees in prayer. Fasting and prayer is what will move the hand of God. Nothing else will. Don't waste your time or money going all over the county to these so-called "religious siminars." They are nothing more than a waste. All they want is your money. Like one so-called preacher stated, "All you need to be successful in the ministry is have enough money to buy full page ads in Charisma Magazine."
Whatever happened to the "all-night prayer meetings?" This new bunch declares that we do not have to tarry before the Lord any longer. All we need to do is to praise, worship and then the glory will fall. But I say to you friends, you can do it all, but until you are right with God, it will all be in vain.
There are numerous preachers today whose only desire is to live a "lavish lifestyle." But I ask, "Where is the burden for lost souls? Where are the hots tears that weep in the night? Where are the sleepless nights?" For most, there are none.
A few years ago, a minister stepped into my office. He got down on his knees, and with tears running down his face, he begged me to sell him Miracle Valley. I remember his exact words. "If I only had Miracle Valley, I would be the next T D Jakes."
May God have mercy on men such as this.
