The Power of Children in the Last Times

I have become [a minister], according to the gift from the grace of GOD, which is given to me according to His mighty power; to me, the very least of all the saints, this grace is given: to proclaim among the Gentiles original: Heyden; refers to non-Christian peoples or nations. the unsearchable riches of Christ, and to enlighten everyone as to what the fellowship of the mystery is, which from the beginning of the world has been hidden in GOD, who created all things through Jesus Christ; so that now the manifold wisdom of GOD might be made known to the principalities and powers in heaven through the congregation, according to the purpose from the ages which He has demonstrated in Christ Jesus our LORD.

§ 7. If, then, God has at all times revealed something which was not previously revealed—back when time was still like a child, so to speak, and could not yet digest strong food nor grasp the mysteries—who are we to forbid Him from revealing even more? Especially since He has explicitly promised it through the prophet Daniel in the 12th chapter: that at the fulfillment of "a time, times, and half a time"—which shall emerge in the midst of the seals and the trumpets (Daniel 7:25; 12:7; compared with Revelation 12:6, 14; 13:5; 11:2, 3)—He would awaken many who would come upon such mysteries and find great understanding within them?

To John, and to all Johannites Followers of the spiritual and mystical traditions associated with the Apostle John. and Philadelphians who love the brothers, an opened little book original Greek: biblaridion ēneōgmenon is given, which he swallows up and brings into his lifeblood original Latin: Succum & Sanguinem (juice and blood); meaning to fully internalize the Word until it becomes part of one's physical and spiritual being. and ponders well before he prophesies, and before he proclaims it to the nations, and Gentiles, and languages, and many kings; who may prevent it? (Revelation 10:9-10). The Spirit of grace and prayer is given, not only to other grown youths, and virgins, and men, and holy women, but even now to the Silesian children This likely refers to the "Children’s Prayer Revival" of 1707–1708 in Silesia, where groups of children gathered spontaneously in fields to pray, sing, and call for repentance.; who will disturb it? And who does not notice, precisely in such powerful awakenings, that a special time is at hand and that the Lord is approaching? He who wishes to seal His 144,000 and sanctify His worshippers for Himself, and thereby fulfill His true word from the holy Revelation in chapter 8, where John—during the preparation of the seven angels who are to sound their trumpets—saw a vision where much incense was given to every prayer of all the saints. "I saw," he says, "seven angels who stood before God, and to them were given seven trumpets; and another angel came and..."
