The Christian community is abuzz with talk of a “Great Awakening” or an “Outpouring of the Glory” that is coming. God sent me a trio of open-eyed visions explaining that both are to be unleashed. First, there will be an increase of God’s glory. People will feel drawn to the things of God. Wisdom about Him, His voice, and visits to Heaven will become common place so that we can be properly trained by Him and learn about His ways. Then the full extent of His glory will come. Prayers in the name of Jesus will bring instant healing. Christians will finally fulfill what the Bible speaks of; we will do even greater things than He did when He was walking here on Earth.
The Awakening began in 2017. This is a glorious time. In my limited exposure to the entire body of Christ, I hear story after story of visions and miracles that have been occurring over the last two years which reveal the destinies of Christian brothers and sisters. These revelations have brought a hunger for knowledge of God. This hunger is increasing: it is the Awakening of the sleeping body of Christ.
“Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required, and from him to whom they entrusted much, they will demand the more.” (Luke 12:48)
Christians need to learn about God, His ways and what He expects before the glory comes because as God begins to increase His operations in the world, the enemy will also increase his activity. A well-known pastor had a vision in which he saw a profane fire on the altar. In the midst of the fire he saw the face of Satan, gloating triumphantly over the Lord’s people. He was given this verse to go with this vision:
“Then Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer and put fire in it, put incense on it, and offered profane fire before the Lord, which He had not commanded them. So fire went out from the Lord and devoured them, and they died before the Lord." (Leviticus 10:1-3)
The pastor explained more about the profane fire, “The Lord’s correction in verse 8 (of the above chapter) explains the central problem. Nadab and Abihu got high and in their state of intoxication and violated the detailed instructions the Lord had given them for fire on the altar. They tried to substitute the way of the world for the way of the Lord… Many try to use the ways of the world as a substitute for the commands of God. He will not accept this kind of fire.
He also states, “I felt the hot displeasure of the Lord for those who claim to be believers but are releasing “profane fire” on His altar…”
God had brought this “profane fire” to my attention this time last year. The full revelation with all the details is in the very short FREE book (10,000 words) “Why Doesn’t God Speak to Me?” On the day this man received this dream, more than 1000 people downloaded a copy of this eBook from Amazon. Up to this point, I was giving away 500 copies a month! This confirmed that this vision was about the revelation in "Why Doesn't God Speak to Me?"
Here is the shortened revelation without all the miracles and things associated with it:

God made a particularly strong impression on me in 2016. He told me to add two elements to my upcoming books:
First Word
Freely you have received; freely give. (Matthew 10:8 NIV)
Most people only apply this verse to what is mentioned directly before it. Heal the sick, raise the dead, and cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. (Matthew 10:7)
This is the inspired word of God. There is purpose in every nuance of what is said. In this case, we must also examine what is not being said: it doesn’t say, “Freely heal, freely raise the dead, freely cleanse, freely cast out.” This would have clearly defined what we should do freely.
Instead we have Jesus giving instruction and direction. First He reveals what He has called them to do and empowers those whom He has set on a task. Then, He adds the parameters, “you did nothing to earn this power or knowledge; I give it freely to you. You do the same. What I have given to you, give it away for free.” (Matthew 10:1-15)
This reminded me of a woman, let’s call her Joan, who was preaching on television. Joan gave a word about this back in 2015, “God is rising up the unknown to give away for free what His anointed are charging for.”
Directly after Joan’s words God kept me awake until 4 A.M. giving me the amazing revelation that led me to write “Why Doesn’t God Speak to Me?”
He said, “How much are you willing to hear from Me? To receive from Me?” Instantly, I replied, “You have given me glimpses of the price I may have to pay, and I am now ready and willing. I give it all to you...should the price be my very life.”
The quiet voice of the Holy Spirit continued, “Then implement the revelation I gave to you when I revealed why John was taken back in time to old Jerusalem.” (Contained in the first Believer's Boot Camp book)
“I am, God, aren’t I?” I asked. “Ever since You spoke to me about going to Heaven, I am putting your revelations on my website for free. And I will never charge for a prayer or an appearance.”
His voice was quiet and firm, “You are charging for your books.”
The words caused a mild panic. I couldn’t stop my thoughts, “They are my biographies... Everyone charges for a composed biography. And, I paid thousands of dollars for a top-of-the-line edit on those, not to mention the cost of having the covers professionally designed. Surely I am able to charge for the final polished project I invested money and years of time creating.”
He asked, “What makes these books worth buying? Why do you have a product to sell?”
I knew better than to say, “Because I am able to write in a way that seems to appeal to some people.” The word tells us that He knew us before we were formed in the womb; He designed me with the gift to write. Instead I thought, “Because I have had an interesting journey that may help others.”
Gently He prodded, “And what did you do to deserve those ‘interesting’ experiences?”
A part of me wanted to say “I fell in love with Jesus with my whole heart.” But I know many people who love Him as I do, and yet they haven’t been blessed with some of the wonderful experiences I have been given. My soul sighed as I was forced to admit, “Nothing. I am no one. I abandoned You. And You chose to reveal who You are to me. I messed up time and time again and You sent miracle after miracle to encourage me... These books wouldn’t exist without You.”
Peace, so strong it was undeniable, welled up deep inside me confirming I was on the right track. Despite the hours of deep revelation God had just brought to me, petulant, whiny thoughts burst forth, “But all the big evangelists and even smaller pastors have made millions, if not billions, with their books! Why did you have to reveal this to me? Why do I have to be the one to do it for free?”
“To whom much is given, much is required. You now know the fullness of your calling. You cannot give the enemy a place from which to attack you.”
Vividly, the words I uttered less than an hour ago came to my mind: I had said I would do anything He asked. Another soul-sigh, “I put my faith in You to provide. As soon as I can write this up and upload the revised book, they are all yours.”
This is why all books associated with “God stuff” are now free in all distribution channels. The printed copy is free (including shipping) on my website. I want unlimited access to God, therefore everything I have is free.
The Future of God’s Ministers
John, who was used mightily as a messenger by God, was taken to Heaven twice. On the second visit, he was placed in a room with four rows of seats, stacked one above the next. Religious leaders who were household names filed in and sat in the third row. The row below it was filled with a couple of people whom John recognized from the religious arena. The bottom row was filled with completely unknown individuals, while the top row remained empty.
The person escorting John to this room said, “During the outpouring, many in the third row will be removed from the ministry and some even from the Earth, and some will barely survive. The top row is the place that has been unfilled since the time of the disciples in the Book of Acts. People in the bottom row will vault over the other rows to fill many of these seats. Some will be filled by people not yet seated.”
How will our Generals be removed? We have received the answer.

The Effect of the Outpouring
A famous television evangelist, who specializes in prophecy and predicted that George W. Bush would be president two years before he announced his run for office, had a series of dreams. He was unable to interpret these dreams. As with John, when hearing him describe them, the meaning was so clear it was hard to believe he didn’t know what they meant. Each of the dreams featured an actual tsunami hitting America.
The dream: The evangelist was in the home of a well-known preacher in Baltimore. Water began flooding into the house. He grabbed supplies and headed up to the second story, but the water kept rising. He searched for an attic or crawl space, but was so startled by the content of his dream that he awakened.
Interpretation: From 1776–1777 Baltimore was the temporary capital and residence of the United States government. A few things to note: the evangelist was in the Baltimore home of a well-known religious leader who didn’t see the flood coming and scrambled to survive. This likely indicates that many long-standing, once dominant religious leaders may run the risk of being wiped out as they scramble to survive during the outpouring of glory.
These interpretations are gifts from God, which the Holy Spirit brought as I heard the information. When coupled with the television evangelist’s prophecy and John’s death, the meaning is unmistakable:
It is time to remove the world from the Church, the world-wide body of believers. When making appearances or publishing books, if this is a revelation from God for His people and you expect His anointing to be on it, then it must be FREE! We do not charge for things that are anointed by God! If it is your biography and experiences, that is between you and God, but when it is His message for His people and is expected to carry His anointing, it must be free.
If you do not have the faith necessary to give all the messages God has given you away for free, including the manufactured books, and trust Him to take care of the worldly cost of being on TV, then step back until you do. The disciples didn’t charge for a single word they said, written or otherwise. They trusted in God and so should you.

Additionally, people do not need to give you a seed of ____ amount to receive their breakthrough. That is selling the blessings and anointing of God. (Acts 8:16-22) Give people the revelation God has sent you to give, and trust Him to tell the people what to send. Stand back and be amazed when they send exactly what God told you they would. This is the way it should be done.
Second Word
The next thing God did was bring me the rest of the Bible verses I needed, to help correct the situation with His people. Yes, preachers are doing it wrong; they have conformed to the world's way by taking their money up front. But God’s people who are receiving instructions and help have an instrumental part to play as well.
If you continue reading in Matthew, Jesus tells His disciples not to take anything with them, no gold, not even extra clothes:
“…for the workman deserves his support (his living, his food). (Matthew 10:10)
This is backed up in many verses in the New Testament. Here are two:
If we have sown [the seed of] spiritual good among you, [is it too] much if we reap from your material benefits?... [On the same principle] the Lord directed that those who publish the good news (the Gospel) should live (get their maintenance) by the Gospel. (1 Corinthians 9:11&14 AMPC)
Let him who receives instruction in the Word [of God] share all good things with his teacher [contributing to his support]. Do not be deceived and deluded and misled; God will not allow Himself to be sneered at (scorned, disdained, or mocked by mere pretensions or professions, or by His precepts being set aside.) [He inevitably deludes himself who attempts to delude God.] For whatever a man sows, that and that only is what he will reap. (Galatians 6:6 AMPC)
This is the correct order that God shows us in His word. First, we the teachers give freely then we wait for God to speak to those who have received it. What people decide to give is a matter between God and them who have received it and it is completely in their hands. What is going on now is backwards: we give for a price, collecting before we even know if what we have given has helped others.
Notice the warning at the end of the second verse. If you receive from God and don’t respond according to His way of doing things, you won’t benefit from what you are learning. This was so ingrained in God’s people that a group of Christians asked Paul not to come and speak to them because they didn’t want to have to give him an offering for his teaching. (2 Corinthians Chapters 11 & 12)
Those who are anointed by God to do His work, who provide spiritually for His people should get their substance from that work.
This revelation from God came with two miracles to confirm that this is His way:
- The day I made all my books free including the printed copies on my website, a woman I never met put $1000 into my paypal account because the revelation within the pages helped to answer so many questions she was struggling with.
- The day before the pastor had this vision, 1000 free eBooks were downloaded from Amazon; the eBook is where I give this revelation in greater detail. ("Why Doesn't God Speak to Me?") This is without any marketing. Until this point, 500 people were downloading this book each month.
Satan’s plans have been revealed. He is trying to take out God’s generals during the outpouring. I received a dream about this very topic: it had instructions and information about these ministers and what they need to do to survive this attack of the enemy:

Believers' Boot Camp series
Many people think of boot camp as a place you train for combat. Any veteran will tell you that basic training is about three things:
- Knowing what weapons are available
- Learning how to use those weapons
- Receiving orders and following them
Believer’s Boot Camp series is a collection of books which teach us how to hear more clearly from God with the goal to ready ourselves for a face-to-face meeting with our Lord, Jesus. The series reveals the “weapons and tools” God has given us and how to use them, so we can bring God’s kingdom to Earth. Each book in the series focuses on a single topic to clearly define one tool or weapon from our Heavenly Father.
The series uses the Word of God to reveal all that He has given us through Jesus. The Bible is our instruction manual and the Holy Spirit is our guide to understanding it.
Volume 1: Why Doesn't God Speak to Me?
Eager hearts cry out, hoping for a single word to confirm that He hears us. Yet, many times the only sound is silence. Over the years I have heard several reasons why God speaks to some and not to others. One night, as I tossed and turned, I brought each of these reasons before the Lord, stating why each of them did not line up with who I thought He was.
Words rose from my soul, pleading for Him to reveal why He has remained silent when a single word from Him would mean so much to so many. For the next few hours, God used things I learned about years ago and things I had just discovered to show why He talks to some and why He doesn’t, and in demonstrative ways.
In His grace, He also showed me how people could hear more from Him. Basic instructions on how to hear more from God and how to be led by Him are included in this book. Thank you for taking time to consider the answers I received and share with you now.
