The power of God must come upon humanity, stealing from humanity, for a short period of time, the power to direct history. What is hidden and behind the scenes, the constant guidance by the Father of human history will come onto the world stage, will be evident for all to see–an entirely new in-breaking of God’s Spirit, who wants to save humanity from all its sins.
This will be a time for tearing down and building up, a time of death and new life, a time of setting aside the powerful and lifting up the little ones.
Even with this direct intervention, humanity will remain free. Some will open their hearts to welcome this new presence of the Lord in history. Others will close their hearts and stubbornly resist the Father’s call.
The Church must be prepared and ready. The Father seeks her renewed birth.
