SPIRIT-EMPOWERED PEOPLE

In our day heaven and earth are on tiptoe waiting for the emerging of a Spirit-led, Spirit-intoxicated, Spirit-empowered people. All of creation watches expectantly for the springing up of a disciplined, freely gathered, martyr people who know in this life the life and power of the kingdom of God. It has happened before. It can happen again….

Such a people will not emerge until there is among us a deeper, more profound experience of an Emmanuel of the Spirit -- God with us, a knowledge that in the power of the Spirit Jesus has come to guide His people Himself, an experience of His leading that is as definite and as immediate as the cloud by day and fire by night.

-- Richard Foster in Celebration of Discipline
