The key reason I wrote this book: Surprisingly Supernatural came from the time I went to Benny Hinn’s healing crusade in Billings, Montana in 2006 and the Lord spoke to me saying,
You are going to be part of a new movement that will be different from Hinn’s style of ministry. This movement was not going to involve orchestras, teams of singers, staging and lighting. It was going to involve individual believers who will release the gifts of the Spirit right where they live, work, and play.
I began to see that God was leading me to lay my hands on people and I witnessed healings and miracles performed right before my eyes. I was in shock that God was working through me! I started to understand that this new movement was for the ordinary saints like me. It was for all believers who wanted to believe for more of God in their lives.
In my previous book: Wake Up! I showed how the little horn had influenced the Western culture and demonstrated how the saints were being defeated over the past three centuries and cited that the vast majority of believers failed to demonstrate the gifts of the Spirit, because there were few believing believers around.
A believing believer is someone who has woken up in the end of the end-times and wants to respond to Jesus’ question about the end of the end-times when He asked, will there be faith on the earth when He comes back? (see Luke 18:8). Consequently, the believing believer will exhibit great faith as he walks out his spiritual journey of faith during the end of the end-times. Therefore, the believing believer believes the Scriptures and obeys them, and is continually filled by the Holy Spirit; as a result, the believing believer can release the gifts of the Spirit around him in his relational networks. Daniel 7:22 revealed that the Ancient of Days was going to release the kingdom to the saints with successive outpourings of His Spirit. And that is still happening, so the saints are called to wake up and receive these outpourings and become believing believers.
The Ancient of Days has been releasing the kingdom of God over the past three centuries for the saints to wake up and receive it, and then to learn to counteract against the evil ungodly powers that are aligned with the little horn. The saints need to wake up and counteract against the little horn, as this ungodly power’s influence is accelerating in the world today through the plans of the elite bankers that are linked with the Illuminati who control a majority of the world’s resources, military powers, judicial powers, and political powers. And they want to form the New World Order, and the One World Religion and they want to eliminate Christianity completely. That’s why the saints must awaken today.
The eventual goal of these Christian believers is to work with God to bring about the prophetic word in Revelation 11 that says,
The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ. . . (Rev. 11:15).
I call these Christian believers, who live at the end of the end-times, “believing believers.” They act just like the first disciples acted, which shows they are just ordinary Christian believers who can release the kingdom of God and see miracles, deliverance, and prophetic words regularly happen as they go about their daily business.
These influences on my life and my previous writing have led me to write this book: Surprisingly Supernatural: A Practical Guide to Releasing the Gifts of the Spirit. There is an urgent call for believing believers to continually receive the Holy Spirit, receive the gifts of the Spirit, and then to learn how to practice the gifts until they can release the gifts of the Spirit everywhere they go. This is so the body of Christ can battle against the evil powers and bring more people to Jesus Christ and simultaneously defeating these evil powers. That’s what Surprisingly Supernatural will teach the readers to do.
At first believing believers may appear to be surprisingly supernatural, but that is due to the little horn that successfully inhibited Christians from releasing the spiritual gifts (see Dan. 7:21). But all Christians are supposed to operate in the supernatural gifts of the Spirit; however, they have been impeded by the little horn’s influence over the past few centuries. Consequently, many Christians have never realized that they were actually called to heal the sick and cast out demons (see Mark 16:17-18; Matt. 10:7-8). But in order for the kingdom of the world to become the kingdom of our Lord and His Christ, believing believers need to arise at this time.
This book: Surprisingly Supernatural: A Practical Guide to Releasing the Gifts of the Spirit is a training manual for believers so they can learn to become surprisingly supernatural, which means they will eventually become believing believers.
