John 5. Revival's essence is a manifestation of the person of Jesus. Are you convinced that you have already been made whole? Are you ready to abandon how you see yourself and become who you already are?

Honoring what the Lord is doing in another will actually expedite your own entrance into favor. If you will gaze at His goodness, you will begin to see yourself as loved. Breakthrough is supposed to come by way of fire not formula. 

John 15. Abba is giving us a new standard of beloved identity. In order to re-engage the realm of Zion we must be convinced of our beloved identity. 

Proverbs 13:12. When He becomes your focal point, He changes your desires. Allowing Him to deal with your disappointment makes you whole and causes you to begin to desire the way He designed you to desire. 

Revival is granting us re-entrance into an authentic and orthodox Christianity. Divorce yourself from inferior things you have focused on and receive the grace to live distraction free. 

Your thirst doesn't lead you to a stream, it causes you to become one. Be thirsty enough that you actually become a river in the desert. 

We never see the power of faith because of beloved identity issues. If you come into beloved identity you can move a mountain with a mustard seed of faith. Faith is a witness you have been established in beloved identity. 

The purpose of revival and also the purpose of the apostolic is to send you to the feet of Jesus. In the middle of questioning and confusion open up and surrender like you never have before. 

Reconciling Revival and Rest. Being forgiven means you cease to be identified as one who had previously failed. 

Disappointment initiated the cage most people are trapped in. In revival God will make you stare at the place inside of you that hurts the most and then will deliver you by way of His kindness. The first phase of an oak of righteousness is that there is no longer a broken heart. Finishing the exchange means that there is no longer even a hairline fracture present in you heart. 

Finishing the exchange looks like surrendering the last part of me that fails to see Him as good and that fails to see myself as beloved. 

Finish the exchange. What hand have I kept hidden behind my back just in case He isn't kind? What has the Father hidden for you that you cannot access because of what you have hidden from Him? 

In His sovereignty, God has decided to reveal Himself to us as kind. The Father in His kindness wants to cause the most callous places in your heart to become the most tender. 

Can you experience renewal without first being emptied? Is it possible to renovate a house without making a mess? If He is emptying you it is because He is making room for new wine. 

Romans 2:4. Kindness could be the most important evangelistic tool the church has ever been given. His forgiveness is kind and tender hearted. Pleasing a kind God trumps trying to appease a bitter God. 

Will you ever fully give yourself to seeking someone you do not fully trust? Living in authentic trust generates diligent seeking. Trust has a significant impact on the way we seek Him.

Matthew 8. His desire is much stronger than my feelings that I am undesirable. He is giving you His perspective instead of a leper consciousness. 

Matthew 8. He finds us desirable and He chooses to love us even when we feel like everything in us is falling apart. Come out of agreement with every lie that says, "I know He can but will He?" 

What is the purpose of the wilderness? Abba ensures that what you used to be a slave to will never chase you again. There are aspects of His countenance reserved for the man that would dare to be still. Vulnerability may be more valuable to leading others into beloved identity than every other leadership quality and gifting combined. 

God wants to overwhelm you by the kindness and goodness of His love. There is an intimacy we are being invited into in the year 2020 that is going to test everything we think we know about beloved identity. He is going to put us in the oil of beloved identity and we are going to experience a renewal that never ends.
