From Oxford to Stanford -- My
Glory will be Revealed
By Chad Taylor
"Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars hill, and said, 'You
men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are too superstitious. For
as I passed by and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this
inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. To whom you ignorantly worship, HIM I NOW
DECLARE TO YOU." (Acts 17:22-23).
FROM ATHEISM TO APOSTOLIC
In this hour My name will be declared in the halls of
intellectualism and atheism. I will show Myself to them as I did to Saul and
they will be smitten with revelation. I will blind them to their own
knowledge and open their eyes to My glory. They will see Me high and lifted
up and they will be saved. I will replace their atheism with an apostolic
anointing that will shake the nations. From these places of higher learning I
will reveal a greater glory. Books will be written and history created as I
brood on the face of the deep. Riot will turn to revival as My face is seen
in their text books and manuals. The writing on the wall in these
institutions will be, "A chosen generation."
WAVES OF DIVINE CREATIVITY
Poets, prophetic minstrels, actors, actresses, dancers and
entrepreneurs will emerge from the wind of My Spirit to change the landscape
of the world. They will shape and change the hearts of a generation with
their inspired creativity and art. Movies and music will resound with sound
of My voice as My children echo Heaven. The waves of divine creativity and
thinking will crash down on the shores of the nations rescuing millions from
the shadows of despair. Those ensnared in poverty will leap with prosperity
as My Spirit redeems the time. Resurrecting the dry bones of creation and
creativity as My children lay their hands to the plow. The slain dreams of
millions will rise to impact the nations of the world.
MTV WILL BE INVADED
I will breath the breath of life on the children of the
baby-boomers and they will see a great light. They will follow the star of My
dreams to impact Hollywood and Broadway. And their children's children will
rewrite the screenplays and the songs of the secular to reveal My glory. MTV
will be invaded with a new sound of Spiritual creativity and creation.
Producers and directors will grasp eternity in film and script. On stages and
stadiums the sound of this revival will be heard. In the sports arenas and
bowl games my chosen generation will shine. They will hold the flame of
Olympic torches and international medals as My grace is seen. Now will the
baskets and bushels of religion be burned, and from its smoke a mighty army
will emerge.
SLAYING INTELLECTUAL DRAGONS
From Oxford to Stanford My light will shine. In the midst
of their unbelief I will open the eyes of the blind. They will come in the
middle of the night saying, "How can I be born again?" In the midst of
conflict and controversy I will forgive their sin. As the world looks on from
CNN I will be glorified from their lecture halls and dorms. I will accelerate
their education and doctors and lawyers will go into foreign fields
distant lands to defend the poor and powerless. From universities and
community colleges a cry of harvest will be heard. I trumpet with a certain
sound will summon My army. They will slay intellectual dragons and trample on
the serpents of the wise.
FROM CATHOLIC TO PRESBYTERIAN
Now is the time. Now is the time says the Lord. Now is
the time for harvest and revival. My glory will be reflected and revealed in
those that step out. They will walk on My Word and pass over on dry land.
Having done all, they will stand. Defying the spirit of the age they will
invade. They will violently take the Kingdom and possess the land, occupying
until I come. They will accomplish the things that I have done. They will
reach for a greater as that perfect day appears. Entire campuses will be
swept up in a storm of My glory, from Catholic to Presbyterian, they will
dance with all their might. From these places a model will be created for end
time harvest and revival.
