    A true God chaser is not happy with just past truth; he must have present truth. God chasers don't want to just study from the moldy pages of what God has done; they're anxious to see what God is doing.

    Ironically, it was the father's blessing that actually "financed" the prodigal son's trip away from the Father's face! and it was the son's new revelation of his poverty of heart that propelled him back into his Father's arms. Sometimes we use the very blessings that God gives us to finance our journey away from the centrality of Christ. It's very important that we return back to ground zero, to the ultimate eternal goal of abiding with the Father's in intimate communion. (pg. 243)

    The difference between the truth of God and revelation is very simple. Truth is where God's been. Revelation is where God is. Truth is God's tracks. It's His trail, His path, but it leads to what? It leads to Him. Perhaps the masses of people are happy to know where God's been, but true God chasers are not content just to study God's trail, His truths; they want to know Him. They want to know where He is and what He's doing right now.

    There have always been dreamers. Men and women who catch a glimpse of something beyond themselves who dare to reach for goals and visions. .. Yet no earthly dreamer can match the greatest of them all, the Dreamer who died on the cross to make His dream a reality. John 1:1 says, "In the beginning was the Word." The literal meaning of logos, the original Greek term translated as "Word," is idea, thought or blueprint. It is an ancient Greek theatrical term describing the work of a playwright as he conceives, or dreams up, the plot of a play. So we could say, "In the beginning was the dream".

    We think revival means a silver-tongued preacher, some good music, and a few folks who decide they're going to join the church. No! Real revival is when people are eating at a restaurant or walking through the mall when they suddenly begin to weep and turn to their friends and say, I don't know what's wrong with me, but I know I've got to get right with God.

    O plano satânico consiste em nos manter tão cheios de lixo, que não tenhamos fome de Deus, e isto tem funcionado muito bem por séculos. O inimigo tem nos feito acostumar a sobreviver em uma prosperidade terrena, porém, em uma mendicância espiritual.

    Satanás tem obtido "bons resultados" ao fazer os crentes cruzarem falsas linhas de chegada. Ele trabalha incansavelmente para isto. Corremos poucos quilômetros e dizemos: "Conseguimos!" Ele se delicia ao nos ver sentados no acostamento. E, então, percebemos, no último momento, que a linha de chegada está mais adiante.

    Se Deus puder contar com pessoas entre Seu povo, em uma determinada região, que rejeitem o domínio satânico com humildade, quebrantamento, arrependimento e intercessão, então Ele vai entregar uma "ordem de despejo" ao poder demoníaco vigente naquela área. E quando assim Deus o fizer, veremos a manifestação de Sua glória.
