Jim Raley Closes Charisma Conference With ‘Double Door Season’ Prophecy

Jim Raley prophesied that a “double door season” was ahead for believers during the final Saturday session of the Charisma Conference 2018.

“How many of you are willing to step into a double door season?” Raley asked at the start.

“The Holy Spirit said, ‘You have experienced double doors or doors in the past, but now get ready for double doors.’ You’ve seen doors, but God said, ‘Now get ready for double doors.'”

Raley preached from Luke and Isaiah. He specifically pointed to Cyrus’ anointing in Isaiah 45:1 as indicating even greater anointing for Christians.

“If God would anoint a Cyrus, if He would provide that anointing for a Persian king with no anointing to Jesus at all, how much more does He want to release the Messiah’s anointing on His blood-bought church?” Raley said. “How many of you want to operate in the anointing of Jesus?”

His speech was full of exhortation and encouragement to the assembled audience.

“Survival is overrated,” Raley said. “I don’t want to just survive. Can I find real people? I don’t want to just barely make it. … I’ve been made to be more than a conqueror. God is on my side.”

He even pointed to the spiritual benefits of trials and tribulation: “Sometimes the opposition is there to press you and push on you and make you think, ‘I’m going to show the enemy God is on my side and everything the devil has said I won’t have I’m going to have in the name of Jesus.'”

Raley later said the church was entering a season of fruitfulness.

“I hear the Lord say, ‘Tell my people they’re getting ready to birth some things,'” Raley said. “‘Churches are going to be birthed. Revivals are going to be birthed.’ … How many of you are ready to step into supernatural fruitfulness?”

Later, Raley said God wanted to “expose secret breakthroughs” in people’s lives. At one point, attendees began sprinting around the room with excitement.

“God had a plan for you before you even got here,” Raley said. “You didn’t just stumble up even into this room today. You’ve been set up. It’s because God has a word he wants to deposit into your life. He has something to say to you.”

Before Raley closed the conference, Marcos Perez, executive vice president of Charisma Media’s Book Group, went onstage to address conference attendees and share the story behind the Charisma Conference’s origins. He said God had placed the desire to do the conference on his heart, and he had taken a leap of faith two weeks before the conference by making the conference free to attend.

Raley praised the faith of Perez and Steve and Joy Strang (Charisma’s CEO/founder and CFO, respectively).

“I believe so often we want god to do the uncommon while we barely do the common,” Raley said. This Charisma Conference is uncommon. This step of faith was uncommon. That you guys would do it was uncommon. The Strangs and Marcos stepped out in faith, because we believe in revival and the move of God.”

William McDowell, who was originally scheduled to speak at the conference, made a video cameo. He had an injury, in addition to a newborn at home, but he gave a short teaching and said revival was not only happening but “spreading” in the community.
