Effects & Consequences

In the chapter “Sailing Into Tomorrow” John shares aspects of Church life as Father has revealed to him. It is surely in the hearts of many believers to cry out to our Father for the old ways to die so that the new may be revealed in the earth. It will be for His glory. Please let it be so Father God…

1. A sense of awe and wonder will repeatedly grip many because of the way in which God ‘uncovers’ Himself to and in His people.

2. Hungry hearts will be given open eyes. Response to the call and revelation of God will give new insights until the fitful light of the moon will become like the brightness of noonday, and the sunlight will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven full days.

3. Naturalness and even natural weakness, in befriending sinners and sharing Jesus with them, will have supernatural results. What starts as a trickle will not stay ankle, knee, or thigh deep but will be as water deep enough to swim in.

4. Christians will consider deprivation, rejection, suffering and even martyrdom to be a joy and an honour because of their all consuming love for God and desire for His glory.

5. Reality, righteousness and a God-fearing recognition of His supreme authority will be restored as norms in the Church.

6. Changes in governments and the course of nations will be caused by the honouring of God and an honouring of godly men.

7. There will be glory in the Church and in Christ Jesus, and the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea. We will see His glory, and we will be His glory.

8. The government will be upon the shoulders of the Lord. And there will be no end to the increase of His government, and of peace. He will reign on David’s throne. The zeal of the Lord of Hosts will accomplish this.
