The tidal wave of God
By Marc Dupont , Toronto May 1996
Behold I am doing a new thing , I am sending a tidal wave of my Spirit. There is a wave of my spirit that the world has never yet seen before. At this moment it is only the winds and the waters pushing, there is an outpouring of the river of life flowing. The winds are blowing and the winds are blowing and the winds are blowing.
I say to you that I am baptizing my church in my holiness. Much of my church has been standing in an arrogance. They have been standing in an arrogance of their own strength. They have been standing in an arrogance of their own understanding. They have been standing before my people and saying “God does this and God does this but he doesn’t do that”. But I have not been speaking to them; my heart has been closed to them because their ears have been stopped towards me because their hearts have been closed towards me. They are my people they bear my name I have given them a heritage, but they have not drawn near to me they have not sought me and they have not called out to me
I say to you the winds of my Spirit are blowing against the church. I will destroy the apathy, I will destroy the complacency towards me. The church has an apathy towards me, they have an apathy towards my presence, they have an apathy towards my heart. There is a complacency towards my being. They have not cried out for me, they have not sought me. Instead they have loved the programs , they have loved the ways of man. They have learned to worship me by tradition, by doing it over and over again. They have not called out to me, they have given me lip service, but their hearts have been far from me
I say to you I am doing a new thing. My river is flowing, it is increasing even now a wave is coming. A wave is coming and the power of this wave is sending forth the winds. The winds are battering against the church. I say to you just as a loving father chastises his children, I am dealing with my church now. I am not dealing with my church in bitterness. I am not dealing with my church in anger to destroy. I am dealing with my church in my loving kindness even so to bring judgment. Because I am raising up my children, I am raising them up to stand in my Spirit. First I am dealing with them out of my heart, out of my compassion.
Much of the church is afraid of the winds of my Spirit. But I say to you I am causing them to stand. I am causing them to stand in my love and my grace. I am going to break the complacency and apathy towards me. There is a false spirit that has been working among much of the church. It is the spirit of the antichrist it is the spirit of religion., it has been robbing me of my glory.
I say to you I am going forth as a strong warrior. I am going forth with a shout. Even now I am raising up the heralds, I am raising up the proclamation. I am raising up a shout within my people. I am breaking the apathy I am breaking the complacency. The waters are coming, the waters are coming. You shall walk on the waters, you shall swim in the waters, you shall laugh in the waters, you shall rejoice in the waters .I say to you even though you feel like you are stuck on dry ground. I say to you I am putting you in a boat and it is going to go upon the waters and just when you think you can’t take anymore, I am going to pull you out of the boat and you are going to walk on the waters with me.
Because my Spirit is my presence my Spirit often causes fear among my people. Just as Jesus my Son walked towards his disciples across the water, they were afraid of his presence, they thought he was a ghost they did not understand. But Peter responded out of his heart and he said “I want to be with you Lord” I say to you respond out of your heart, say “we want to be with you Lord , we want to walk with you we want to run with you”
Behold I say to you I am pouring out an imitation . The harvest is at hand, the river of life is flowing. Every dry creek , every empty ravine, all the canyons, all the low places, all the sunken rivers and all the gorges. I am going to fill them up. There is a devastation upon the land, the cities are empty channels of death. There is death and lies filling the cities. I am going to fill the cities up with my living waters. My river is going to flow and flow and flow.
I say to you that there is a fear that is coming upon the church. It is not a fear that will cause it to decline. It is not a fear that will cause it to decline It is not a fear that will cause a decay. It is a fear that will break the back of the spirit of religion and cause my people to call out to me.
