“NOBODIES TO START HEALING REVIVAL”

(A Prophetic Perspective by Al Thomas)

DURING MY REGULAR PRAYER TIME I FELT LED TO ASK THE LORD A question: ”Gracious Master, who are you going to use to start (this often prophesied) healing revival?” I had heard this prophetic word (in various forms) many times in many places. I gave a similar word in the past. After praying, I opened my eyes. On my desk was the latest Christian magazine. It was opened to a page showing pictures of many well known Christian ministers. These were solid men and women of God. They were people to whom we give honor (1 Tim. 5:17) and should. I admired them and prayed for their ministries. You would know each of them by their names or photos. Without thinking I heard myself say out loud: “God, I suppose you’ll use these well known men and women in the coming healing revival…” The Lord spoke: “No, I WILL USE PEOPLE WHO ARE nobodies.”

1. “GOD TO USE NOBODIES TO HEAL BODIES…” God said, “The church will be expecting Me to use the well known and popular. Don’t misunderstand My son, I’m not saying I am displeased with anyone… I am saying in this move of My Spirit I will use the ‘insignificant people.’ ” I was hungry for more. He continued: “Don’t be fooled into thinking it takes a somebody to get a great thing done for Me…I prefer to use nobodies.” An hour before I had been reading about an unknown, insignificant servant. A captive Jewish girl (read 2 Kings 5: 1-3) who was instrumental in Naaman’s healing. She wasn’t famous. Her name wasn’t on bill boards, radio or TV. She was unknown, a nobody…but fertile ground for God, ground already broken up, soft and pliable (Jer. 4:3; Hos. 10:12). A nobody birthing a miracle…

2. “Have you ever felt like a nobody? GOOD…” The Lord says you are the perfect candidate to be greatly used. Naaman would have never received healing unless this ordinary girl opened her mouth. I can see her washing dishes, humming away and innocently blurting out “Oh, if only my master would go see Elisha…he would cure him of his leprosy…” (2 Kings 5:3). Boy, did she start something! This young girl being held captive by the Syrians, remembered her God, His prophets and His power and wasn’t ashamed to speak about it. God is about to use nobodies who simply “…declare among the people his doings” (Ps. 91:11).

Ps. 40:5 says: “Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done… if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.” God wants nobodies (by faith) to start confessing His healing power!

3. I SEE IN THE SPIRIT (supposed) NOBODIES STARTING A MASSIVE HEALING MOVEMENT This unknown girl was trapped. Do you feel trapped? Are you wondering why you’re in the predicament you are in? He has strategically placed you in a pit so His power can come forth. This girl was a forced servant of her enemies yet she’s not throwing a pity party. She speaks highly of her God (Mark 2:12b; 9:8) and starts a miracle. Many so called ‘little people’ are about to start miracles. You don’t need to be preaching before thousands or in charge of a big ministry. Remember…a certain jailer and his family (Acts 16:22-24) wouldn’t be saved if Paul and Silas were not trapped in prison and a nation wouldn’t be delivered if a young boy named Joseph wasn’t thrown into a pit (Gen. 37:24). I see trapped people raising their hands to heaven and God handing them healing power. Nobodies healing bodies!

4. ANGELS GOING TO CHURCHES WITH A CLASSIFIED AD THEN I SAW A VISION. ANGELS WERE SENT TO EVERY CHURCH HOLDING A SIGN:

WANTED: “PEOPLE TO BE USED TO BRING FORTH GOD’S HEALING POWER”

‘Prefer people who feel ordinary, trapped, and insignificant. Not looking for people in the know or those seeking power, recognition or honor (1 Cor. 12:23-24). Imitators not wanted. Must be able to work with angels (John 1:51). No experience needed. Will train. Apply in person. Need is very great. Sorry, only interviewing nobodies at this time. Sincerely, GOD.’

“…for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance,but the LORD looketh on the heart. (1 Samuel 16:7b)
