God has given us lots of time to prepare for His return. While many think that they are waiting on God to return —He is actually waiting on us to prepare the way for Him.
You may be thinking hey wait a minute, God is in control and He can do whatever He wants to do, He doesn't need us to make the way for Him, He can and will come when He wants to come.
Yes He is in control and yes He can do whatever He wants to do. That is why He gets the say so, He is God. Therefore what He said goes. And what He said was He wanted us to go for Him because He was going to the Father..
What He said is Him —being in control. He is God and He is in charge of us, and when He left — He said the next step was for us to do His work for Him.
So right —He calls the shots and He is in control. Thus, we better get going and do what He said instead of asking Him to do it! Instead of asking Him to do revival without us, we better get ready to be that vessel for Him to do revival through (2 Timothy 2:21).
John 14:12 I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, if anyone steadfastly believes in Me, he will himself be able to do the things that I do; and he will do even greater things than these, because I go to the Father. 13 And I will do [I Myself will grant] whatever you ask in My Name [as presenting all that I Am], so that the Father may be glorified and extolled in (through) the Son. 14 [Yes] I will grant [I Myself will do for you] whatever you shall ask in My Name [as presenting all that I Am].15 If you [really] love Me, you will keep (obey) My commands.
