Runways in the Desert
I’ve met a few of the men from the Argentine Revival over the years.
One of them had an unusual ministry that was referred to by the name “Fire on the Phone”.
He would call people up, or more often, they would call him up and he would pray for them over the phone.
Nothing extraordinary in that, except that every time he prayed for someone over the phone — Holy Spirit Fire fell in that persons home, Church, business, or wherever they were.
At the height of the Argentine Revival, in the mid-80’s, he would get two or three calls a night from pastors who could not get up to Rey de Reyes Church in Buenos Aires, where the revival began.
I met him in the 90’s, and subsequently in 2017. I was prayed for by him, and received some from his praying — but not The Fire.
The Anointing for that was ‘reserved’ for phone calls apparently!
Why do I tell this story? Because it is a great example of the unusual Ministry Mantles and Anointings that The LORD is going to bring into being in these next few months.
There are more varied ministry mantles coming our way in the next few months than we could ever have imagined.
The LORD is preparing hearts to receive Holy Spirit led Ministries that have anything from a pin-point Ministry to one that is as wide as a football field.
I gave a Word to our own Pastor a while back that I believe reflects The LORD’s Heart for is time.
He is preparing hearts for Unity.
Isaiah speaks of making paths straight and making a way in the desert where there is no way.
He speaks to me of The Holy Spirit needing somewhere to land.
The LORD is not only going to make straight the path to Unity, He is about to use that path as a Runway for The Holy Spirit to land in each and every town that will receive Him.
My heart burns in joyful anticipation of The Holy Spirit “landing” in our town and beginning a new work of healing and unity there.
He will also bring with Him the various different Ministry Mantles as will suit the variety of Churches in Unity.
Such will be the impact that those yet to be saved will see the unity and be attracted to a Church near them.
They will go there out of curiosity and they will come away on fire for Jesus.
If we haven’t prepared a runway for The Holy Spirit to land then it’s about time to build it — before it’s too late.
Oh hallelujah!! \o/

He has also operated Healing Rooms, and worked with deliverance teams, all with his wife, Linda. Happily now doing whatever The LORD asks of them!

Hi, Chris,
I love the way you sense, feel and describe things because it is so similar to me!!…….
You kept this childlike expectance and wonder about all the Lord does and will be doing, sensing the spiritual atmosphere in churches and around you even in your older age (like me..).
This is resonating with GREAT JOY! THANK YOU!
I am feeling like I’m a recipient of the Lord having you “prophesy” this word back in 2017…
“Unusual mantlings and ministries”….
I’m grabbing a hold of the Word in Faith and speaking “multiplication” casting it further and wider…for others! ….like “a net” on the waters”!
BLESSINGS!
Interesting…it was the 90’s when i traveled to Buenos Aires…fond of Florida Ave. Lovely city, very friendly people. Let’s ’till and Water the ground of our heart/s Church – Make way of a ‘Runway’ that we might ‘Soar’ to new heights and deeper depts in Him…as Holy Spirit lands in the hearts of His people.
