The filling of the earth with the Glory of God also is a revival, but in this case the Spirit of God will come from the Throne of God in the sons of God instead of as rain from Heaven. The wells of living water will be filled at the coming of the Lord. The Glory of God issuing from the sons of God will break all the chains of evil, remove sin and persistent sinners from the earth, and lift the curse from the earth.

The rule of Satan and of the self-will and lusts of mankind rapidly is approaching its finish. The influence of wickedness will be supplanted by the Spirit of God.

Because of the Glory of God being developed in God's conquering saints, the weaker members of the Church and the nations of saved peoples of the earth shall be healed.

And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither: for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither the river cometh. (Ezekiel 47:9)

But unto you that fear my name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. (Malachi 4:2)

The peoples of the earth, and the earth itself, will be delivered from the futile corruption that has been placed on them because of the disobedience of Adam and Eve. The death and darkness that fill and control mankind will be replaced by eternal life. The sons of God will go to every part of the earth, bringing life to all who will receive.

This is taking place today as missionaries travel to the remote villages of the earth. The saints bring life today but under conditions of hardship and persecution. When the Lord returns we shall go to the nations as revealed sons of God, filled to overflowing with the Glory of God.

"And there shall be a very great multitude of fish."

Because of the River of Life flowing from the believers the nations of the earth will be converted. The "fish" will be healed—the Spirit of God in us will heal them. They are our inheritance.

The whole earth will awaken from its sleep of death as the sons of God go forth under the Headship of the Lord Jesus Christ. This is the earthwide ministry of Christ, Head and Body, of which the Hebrew prophets spoke.

The earth died at the hands of Adam and Eve. The earth will return to life at the hands of Spirit-filled people as Christ lives in them and directs them.

The River of Life proceeds from the Throne of God and of the Lamb, this is to say, from the heart of the saint. The river is "clear as crystal."

Today the "water" from the saints often is muddy. People come to drink of the water of life but it is muddy with sin and self-seeking; and sometimes a charge is made for it as the self-seeking minister attempts to use the gifts of God in order to become wealthy. It is the Lord's will that the water of life be given without cost. (from Revelation: Chapters Twenty-one and Twenty-two)
