Five Things We Will Learn
- Why the coming revival will begin quietly, humbly, and far from the spotlight.
- How deep, desperate hunger for God—not gifting or strategy—becomes the true catalyst for revival.
- What it looks like when the manifest presence of the Lord, not miracles or personalities, becomes the main attraction.
- Why this revival will decentralize rapidly and multiply across the nations rather than center on one leader or location.
- How the Church can prepare its heart now for a last-days harvest that precedes the return of Jesus.
A Dream That Carries the Weight of Certainty
Rick Joyner recently shared what he described as the most vivid, detailed, and powerful dream of his entire life—a revelation of a coming, last-days revival. He does not present it as speculation, hype, or hopeful imagination. He speaks of it with sobriety and conviction.
His conclusion is simple and unshakable: he knows this is coming.
This was not a dream about new ministry models, celebrity platforms, or human ingenuity. It was a revelation of God moving—clearly, sovereignly, and unmistakably.
How the Revival Begins: Small, Hidden, and Humble
The revival does not begin in a stadium.
It does not begin with a famous preacher.
It does not begin with promotion, branding, or production.
It begins extremely small and ordinary—with a single group about the size of a Sunday-school class in an unremarkable denominational church.
The trigger is not excellence or preparation, but raw, desperate hunger for God.
In the dream, that hunger is so intense it actually shames the speaker for not having prepared better. When that depth of longing fills the room, something changes:
The manifest presence of the Lord falls—overwhelming, unmistakable, and holy.
How the Revival Explodes: From One Room to the World
Once the presence of God comes, it cannot be contained.
Word spreads immediately.
The very next meeting draws the entire city.
By the third or fourth gathering, it becomes global news.
Wars, politics, and economic crises fade into background noise. Media outlets across the world can speak of almost nothing else. People begin flying in from every nation, drawn not by an event, but by the undeniable reality of God’s presence.
The Defining Characteristics of This Revival
The Manifest Presence Is the Main Event
This is not the final Second Coming, but what Scripture describes as the parousia presence—the overwhelming, tangible nearness of the Lord.
Miracles happen constantly, yet they barely register. People are so overtaken by God Himself that signs and wonders become secondary to knowing Jesus.
The Main Thing Remains the Main Thing
The revival survives on one unmovable focus:
- Loving God
- Knowing God
- Staying centered on Jesus
The moment attention shifts to the revival itself, the miracles, or the people involved, the move begins to fade. God remains the attraction—or He withdraws.
Leaders from Every Sphere Lay Everything Down
CEOs, politicians, generals, celebrities, athletes, and entertainers come, encounter God, and walk away from their careers on the spot. They relocate their families and remain—not to lead for recognition, but to serve.
Ironically, they become the strongest administrators and organizers imaginable, yet none seek prominence. The presence of God has stripped ambition from the room.
It Is Not Built Around One Man or One Ministry
In the dream, Rick Joyner himself speaks very little. He may say a few sentences, and then the presence of God takes over. At that point, he simply stops talking.
This is not a man-driven revival.
This is God moving, unmistakably and undeniably.
It Decentralizes and Multiplies Worldwide
While one massive outpouring is occurring in a single location, many others break out simultaneously across the globe. This is not a centralized movement—it is a worldwide ignition.
The Harvest at the End of the Age
This revival is described as the great harvest before Jesus returns.
God comes to His temple—His people—before He comes for His temple in the clouds, where every eye will see Him. The supernatural reality of what God does through surrendered believers will eclipse anything Hollywood has ever imagined.
The world is about to witness something it has never seen before.
Rick Joyner’s Personal Takeaway
One of the most striking elements of the dream is how lightly Rick Joyner holds his own role in it.
He does not know—or care—if he personally participates in the way he saw. He is content even if he only watches it from heaven.
What matters to him is the certainty:
“I know this is coming.”
A Call to Preparation, Not Spectatorship
In his own words, the essence of the dream can be summarized this way:
“This was the greatest move of God—God moving, not men. His presence will be the biggest, most important thing. There is a coming of the manifest presence of the Lord that will precede His coming. He is coming to His temple before He comes for His temple. The world is about to see something it has never seen before.”
This is not a call to chase revival.
It is a call to prepare our hearts.
To cultivate hunger.
To surrender ambition.
To remain faithful in small, hidden places.
To love Jesus more than His works.
Because when the hunger is real—
God Himself will come.
