In the days before the Industrial Revolution there existed
two basic classes of peoples in the civilized worlds. The two classes that
existed were: the very rich and the very poor. The rich had their physical
needs met, and the poor struggled. The poor would look from afar off at
the luxury of the rich,-- and desire. When their desire got
extraordinarily strong, they would sneak closer to peer into the windows
of the rich to dream. It motivated them to become the new rich!! |

In the days after the industrial revolution with the help
of aggressive business, aggressive government and aggressive poor, a new
breed emerged. They were not filthy rich, and neither were they filthy
poor. They were ‘middle class’; a breed of ‘better’ but not ‘best’
attempting to overtake the best (who were getting lethargic). This class
has been growing right up to the current computer age. They ARE very
motivated -- to never be poor again. |

In all of this time, on the spiritual plane, the same
basic thing was happening! The religious poor discovered that there was
such a thing as being spiritually rich! God took some of them who grasped
it and birthed new movements filled with His truth. We called it ‘the
reformation’. Then the next generation of spiritually poor looked at the
‘rich’ and desired more too. So God blessed them also -- with gifts of
the Spirit, signs and wonders. And a new kind of spiritually rich were
born. We now say they were born of ‘revival’. They are motivated to be
rich in God, and never spiritually poor again! |

But there is yet another ‘step up’ that is coming. In
the natural worlds it will be by the power of new technologies. It WILL
make some poor rich! However, in the ‘spiritual’ it will be by the
power God opening spiritual dimensions. This time, I believe, we shall
call it: ‘restoration’; for we shall be ‘like Elohim’ (God). A new
breed of HUMBLE rich; blessed by God! |

We all want to believe in Angels, but not in Demons -- Who do you think Angels resist; themselves?
