A lot of people aren’t aware of this history. In 1948, three things happened, and they all have to do with the coming together of the body of Christ. “I pray that they all may be one that the world may believe that You have sent Me.” God moved. Satan counterfeited. There was a natural fulfillment. Following many previous moves of God, a new move of the Spirit of God began in 1948, and that move is still ongoing. The Charismatic Movement came out of this move and disrupted many of the walls of division in the Church. Some people called it “The Latter Rain, although God never called it that. Because this is a move of the Spirit of God for the Church coming into unity, it is often called Global Missions. However, this move has nothing to do with names or organizations. Satan counterfeited this move with the World Council of Churches. The natural fulfillment of this move came with natural Israel becoming a state in that year, and that work is also still ongoing to the fulfillment of what God has for Israel. So, God did something, but there was also a movement of men afoot that was trying to cause confusion. As with every move of God, there were many who fought against God directly or tried to create diversions. Egos became involved as always happens because of the weakness of human flesh. Emotions, disorders, theologies, and baggage from various denominations disrupted but were not able to stop God from moving. God began to establish authority through prophecy and the laying on of hands of the presbytery. Authority comes with faith, and faith comes by the rhema of God as He speaks through His saints. Power comes with grace, and grace is always through faith. You are saved from sin (and to righteousness) by grace, which is through faith. It is the gift of God, not of yourself, lest anyone should boast.
