The Narrow Way

Moses carried the weight of leading Israel until he could barely stand beneath it. God’s solution wasn’t to make Moses stronger, it was to raise up seventy elders and let the Spirit that rested on Moses rest on them too. Revival multiplies when the fire is shared.

Jesus Himself modeled this. He could have carried the Gospel alone, but He chose twelve. He poured into them, walked with them, prayed over them, and when His earthly mission was finished, He sent them out with the same fire that burned in Him. Acts doesn’t happen without disciples who carried the flame forward.

2 Timothy 2:2 says, “And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others.” That’s not just advice, it’s a Kingdom strategy. Revival dies if it’s hoarded. It multiplies when it’s handed off.

Raising others to carry the flame doesn’t mean perfection. It means proximity. It means letting people close enough to see how you pray, how you repent, how you endure, how you burn. It means teaching by example, not just by words. The oil flows when people see your secret life with God, not just your public one.

The enemy wants revival to depend on a few voices. But God wants revival to roar through generations. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your young men will see visions. Your old men will dream dreams. The flame is not yours to keep, it’s yours to release.

So don’t guard it selfishly. Don’t fear that if you share it, it will lessen. Fire doesn’t diminish when it’s passed, it spreads. And a city doesn’t need one torch. It needs an army of them.

Raise them up. Hand it off. Let them carry it into places you’ll never step. Because revival isn’t real until it outlives you.
