All Idolatry, all the preaching of “gain is godliness”, all the pride of success, all the secret sin will melt like wax before the presence of God!
“As wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God…” (Ps. 68:2).
“For he is a refiner’s fire… He shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold.., that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness…” (Malachi 3:2-3).
Micah the prophet also prophesied a glorious revelation of God’s holy presence that would melt everything in its way:
“For behold, the Lord cometh forth out of his place, and will come down, and tread upon the high places of the earth. And the mountains shall be molten under him, and the valleys shall be cleft, as wax before the fire…” (Micah 1:4).
Jeremiah cried, “Will you not fear the Lord? Will you not tremble in His presence?” (5:22).
God told Ezekiel, “…and all the men that are upon the face of the earth shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down… and every wall shall fall to the ground…” (38:20).
If the ungodly are going to shake and tremble before His holy presence, how will anyone be able to stand before that presence in the house of God?
Down are coming all the boastings! Down all idols of self! Down with self-promotion! Down with the merchandising of the gospel! Down with all the thieves in God’s temple!

“Christianity was birthed in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and will only continue as we have this empowering from above. God is always looking for the willing vessels that will trust Him afresh for the impossible.” from: Principles for the gathering of Believers under the Headship of Jesus Christ.Since 2012, a growing group of believers in North America started to warn of coming persecution to western countries. This message was shared in a variety of ways. One of the responses to this was to compile a book taking principles from underground Churches around the world of how they thrived under pressure and persecution. The volume, Principles for the Gathering of Believers, had in a short time over 50,000 downloads in ebook format and much interest was shown. Some new house churches started through this and other existing groups were encouraged.
