Secrets to Success in Ministry… That CAN Be Reproduced!

When we examine various moves of God, reformations, and the lives of reformers, we can see common trends and similar patterns that can actually be reproduced. 

One of those great secrets can be accessed by anyone who is willing. It is the secret of radical prayer, fasting, and paying the price through trial and pain to see a situation changed. All throughout history, not only today, but in biblical times past, we see that God looks for a man or woman for whom He can show Himself powerful…

2 Chronicles 16:9 and Ezekiel 22:30 says, “I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before me for the land, so that I would not destroy it; but I found no one.” 

When God wants to do something significant in the earth, He always looks for someone who will stand in the gap, someone who will act on behalf of God and execute His desire in the earth. 

As much as God loves corporate unity in the Body, He is not waiting on it in order to reach precious lost souls who are perishing. Throughout the entire Bible, we have a common trend of God using ordinary individuals, who dared to be obedient, courageous, and prayerful. Those who feared God above people, and were willing to go the distance in prayer, persecution, and even the total surrender of their lives.
