Have you been watching the Revival in Lakeland? I can be honest with you...I have never liked the show man like style of any evangelist. I love Reinhard Bonnke, I love his spiritual passion, but I don't like his style. How could God use a crazy looking tattooed old hippy like Todd Bentley? Obviously God can do a pretty good job using Todd Bentley. Maybe that is the point. If God can use Todd Bentley, God can use anyone!
It is so amazing to see the people coming from all over the world for one reason...they are so hungry for the Holy Spirit. The Bible promises us that He will pour out His Holy Spirit in the last days. I love the hunger I see in the lives of the people that are going to Lakeland. I was up until 2am watching the broadcast on God TV. I'm really tired today, but I find the whole thing very exciting. So many testimonies of people getting healed. This isn't Africa...this is in the USA! How could God move in signs and wonders in America? And will we see these amazing miracles in Germany? I bet the church in Germany is very divided. There are so many people here so hungry to see God move here in power. There are probably even more people who would like very much to see everything calm, pretty, and in total control (self control). I’m listening to the audio book by Bill Johnson called “When Heaven Invades Earth”. In this book, Bill Johnson talks about the stigmas attached to the revivals of the past. It seems if you want more of God, you need to be willing to look a little “foolish” to the world, and even to some people in the church. I guess the real question is, just how hungry are you for more of God. For me it’s very easy. I grew up in a Pentecostal church. I’ve experienced the fire of God. I am not satisfied with a polite church. I want so much more! I also have a very dear child, my first born child Jessica who has a need only God can meet. Medical science can not heal Jessica. If there is going to be a transformation in Jessica’s life it is going to be supernatural. But I’ve always believed in Gods power to heal. If God happens to be blessing man kind with a healing revival…I say AMEN!!! I want this, I’m not too proud. Bring it on! You see, there were many people who needed healing when Jesus walked this earth. One poor man could not walk. He had some friends that were so desperate for healing; they were willing to tear the roof off the house Jesus was in just to see their friend healed. I’m not proud, I say, “show me the roof” I am there! Does that mean I’m going to Florida? No. I would go if I felt God telling me to. But that same fire will be coming to Germany. I just know it! I’m praying for it. Believe me, I want to see revival in the church more then I want to see Jessica healed. I want the whole world to see the clean, pure power of God. It’s in this place where Heaven Invades Earth, God shows up and wonderful things like healing and salvation happen. Healing is not the goal, more of God is.
People continue to arrive hungry for the touch of God in their lives, to know Jesus better. Many are experiencing heart-transformations as they come to know the Miracle Maker and His ways! It’s incredible to see God revive, restore, renew, and radically transform hearts for Jesus! Bam! The Gospel power of God is at work here! God is making disciples! The magnitude of the blessings of God pouring into the hearts of people is off the Richter scale-over the top! I invite you to come and discover what it’s like to be in His presence, what it’s like to build a personal relationship with God, what it’s like to hear God, to experience God, to move in His power, and to see His purpose wrought in your own life.

Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them"
