How a Prophetic Word From Cindy Jacobs Helped Chuck Pierce Rekindle the Altar Fire
The prophetic word Cindy Jacobs gave him made no sense.
But when Chuck Pierce went home after receiving it, his wife, Pam, affirmed it.
And what God did next would change his life and his ministry forever.
“I don’t see you traveling like you’ve been traveling,” Pierce says Jacobs told him in January 2020. “I see something God is going to do to regroup you, so you develop a new prototype for revival.”
“My life, you remember, was traveling to the nations,” Pierce tells Dr. Steve Greene on a recent episode of the Greenelines podcast on the Charisma Podcast Network. “The year before, I’d gone 578,000 travel miles. That’s a lot of going.
“And then by March, I’d already gone over 100,000 miles, he says. “But COVID happened; everything shut down. So I had to say, ‘Lord, what do I do?’ and the Lord said, ‘Start off in your backyard.”
Pierce says that before long, he was spending four hours a day before the Lord on his deck in the backyard. “I started working out my whole life for the future, which I’m still doing from my backyard. And then I had to watch the Lord reform my boundaries.
“We had a fire pit there; I would build that fire, and the Lord would say, ‘Watch the fire,'” he says. “And I would watch how that fire would come up. And the Lord said, ‘This is what I am going to do in you.’
“And then from my backyard, I started seeing how to redo this whole place, how to reach the nations,” Pierce says. “We had started doing web church 15 years prior; this was the only way we could do church now. So in the midst of it … everything started reforming that had never formed before.”
Pierce says that although his ministry has now reformed, “The important thing is that the fire in me reformed.” And that’s the lesson he believes we all must learn: to start with ourselves, to look within to see the fire that God wants to rekindle and reform on His altar.
