I have given you a mandate to raise up a generation of men who fear me and obey my commands. These men will be the men that I choose to represent me in the days ahead. They shall be bold men who speak my words as if I, the Lord, am speaking. They shall cause men to tremble at my words, and men shall fall down because of the power I have put inside them. They shall not shrink back or shy away from the pressures of the day or the times that are coming. Rather, they shall push forward and deeper into my presence than they have ever known, says the Lord. These are the men whom I will use: the men of my presence. Those who wait up on me, says the LORD.

For the days are surely coming when I, the LORD, will act. Nations will be amazed at the sound of my voice. Yes, the mountains will tremble, and the hills melt, but truly, the men who do not know me shall fall and be no more. Men shall rise and walk with power as in the days of old. Those who wait on me and rise early shall stand before me and be at my side, says the LORD. I will raise them up and wake them before the dawn. Their hunger for righteousness will drive them, and they shall hide away with me to learn of me and my kingdom, says the LORD. These men shall be like the young lions who search out prey. Yet, their prey shall not be of flesh and blood but of the very words that come from the mouth of the LORD.

They shall feast upon my words and seek me out in the dry places. They will leave behind all who do not follow me. They shall be a special company, a prize of my own making. They shall move even as my Spirit moves, like the four living creatures around my throne. Where my Spirit is, there you shall find them. Go and raise them up. Speak what I speak, and they shall come.
