Elijah and King Herod | Voice of God with Joseph Z

Today, Joseph Z illustrates how reformers create meaningful, lasting change, invigorate institutions, and highlight the significant role the spirit of Elijah plays in the lives of reformers.

Joseph explains that revival happens when the church awakens and life begins to thrive within it. In contrast, reformation refers to changes that affect society. He references the Biblical story of Elijah, who appeared like a flash of lightning, confronting the dark powers that dominated the land during his time. He notes that the same spirit of Elijah was present in John the Baptist, who preached repentance, called out the nation's sins, and directed the people back to the Living God. John also took a stand against Herod and Herodias, who were involved in immoral relationships during their reign.

Next, Joseph reveals that the spirit of Elijah confronts atrocities and cultural evils; it embodies not just revival, but also promotes reformation. This prophetic anointing encourages generational healing and reconciliation between fathers and children. Interestingly, he points out that both John the Baptist and Jesus opposed the spirit of Jezebel. While John condemned Herod and Herodias for their adultery, Jesus chose to respond with wisdom, as he came to save the lost and could not allow political threats to interfere with his mission.

Joseph further cites Malachi 4:5-6 to underscore the role of the spirit of Elijah as demonstrated in John the Baptist. He clarifies that God raises reformers like John in the spirit of Elijah to effectuate reformation. Although John was born into a favorable situation in the land, his response was not self-exalting; he recognized his role and the grace that allowed him to walk in the spirit of Elijah.
