Resurgence

by Andrew Towe

Iheard the voice of the Lord speak to me and say, “Get ready! The Church (the remnant) will see a sudden RESURGENCE!”

“Resurgence,” according to dictionary.com, is “the act or fact of rising again or returning; revival.”

After I read that definition, I got it! God was proclaiming to us, His remnant, to get ready for a rising again or returning of His Church. There is coming the greatest revival that we have ever experienced. When something is revived, it means it comes to life again. In spite of the fact that in 2020, you had the breath knocked out of you physically, emotionally, financially, and even spiritually, God’s work in and through you is not finished! The Holy Spirit desires to breathe fresh wind into your lifeless promises.

The Lord recently showed me a vision of a group of people who appeared to be in a zombie-like state. They were moving, talking, and going through the motions, yet inside, they were vacant. There was no life, no joy, and no expectation within them. I knew that God was showing me the state of many in the Kingdom: how the wind had been knocked out of them. They once were full of life and vigor, but now, they were going through the motions and were lifeless. God wants you to live again. This is your year to rise again.

After I had this vision, the Lord quickly reminded me that I was the ultimate example of the lifeless warrior who had been revived by the breath of God. I went through three years of hellish depression. I left my house very few times during that period. I placed aluminum foil over all the windows to block light from getting in. I unplugged all of my phones and refused to answer the door for anyone. I stopped eating and wasted away to 130 pounds, and for my height and frame, it was a deathly low weight. I was physically alive, but there was no breath of the Spirit in me. I was buried in the tomb of hopelessness. After three years of constant battle, I was tired. I found myself at the end of my rope. I was unaware that this was the day on which God had orchestrated my deliverance.

As I lay in my bed with tears streaming down my face, I began to think about what I could take in my medicine cabinet to bring an end to this battle. Then something suddenly unexpected happened. One line of a song hit my spirit. I can only describe it as a quickening. It felt as if a bolt of electricity had hit my spirit. I released a cry of

desperation. I said, “The God Whom I have served my entire life, if You are really real, then I need for You to come and deliver me today. Help me.” I want to tell you that right then and there, the presence of God filled my little living room, and God breathed the breath of life back into me, setting me free.
