Verses:
2 Cor 3:17
And the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
Ministry Excerpts:
Once a blind man came to the Lord and cried, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” The Lord said, “What do you want Me to do for you?” The answer was simple: “Lord, that I may receive my sight!” (Luke 18:35-43). That is enough. If the Lord asks you today, “What do you want?” and you say, “Lord, I am thirsty today; I want the Spirit,” that is very good. All you need to pray in the prayer meeting is “Lord, I want the Spirit! I am so thirsty. I want a drink.” Do not say, “Lord, You know that I am very thirsty, and because I am thirsty, I need a drink. The drink today is the Spirit, and without the Spirit there is no drink. Only when I have the Spirit can I have the drink.” This is preaching prayer. You are praying as if God needs you to preach to Him. When God asks, “What do you need?” you should say, “Lord, we need a revival! We are all nearly dead. We want to be alive. We are neither hot nor cold. We want to be hot. Lord, burn us!” Do not say, “Lord, You know that unless You do the burning, nobody can burn. Even if we try to be burning, we cannot burn. Only You can burn. If You do not burn us, what can we do? For this we come to beseech You.” Simply say, “Lord, burn us at once!” Do not preach so much doctrine. The Lord will do the burning.
