The Coming Revival

My Definition



As the word of God asked the Prophet Ezekiel can these dry bones live (Ezekiel chapter 37) God gave life to the dead and so in true revival born again Christians get back on fire for God by returning to their love Jesus.

The word revives simply means bring back to life or recovers as demonstrated in the preceding paragraph hence the word revival.

For more than 20 years I’ve been reading about revivals and listened to, what people have called a revival. In 2006-7 The Holy spirit started to minister to me about revival while I was attending a series of meetings. The Spirit of The Lord came in, as Duncan Campbell would say “God stepped down” it was so glorious to see, heaven invade earth. I thought this is the start of another revival in Wales.

The following year I visited America and spent some time visiting what I would call a dead church, maybe it would be better to say the people seemed complacent!
While the pastor was one of the most helpful and joyful people I know, a true Shepard of his flock, something was missing!

After a while a stirring started, every individual that was a member of the church got on fire with the love of God, the hunger moved them to ask what they could do to help in the church.

Two particular examples of attendance, a lady was driving past and said God told her to “go into the church” and another who use to attend the church but not in the last six  months claimed God woke her up one Sunday morning and said “go back to church today”.

Although this was on a small scale it gave me insight into what the difference between revival and a visitation! What happened in USA in 1859, Wales 1904, Scotland 1949 etc, wasn’t just a visitation but it was a ‘habitation’ God allowed The Holy Spirit to be tangibly felt, which draws people to know God. We acknowledge we are sinful and thus we repent which in turn gives us a clean heart before God.  This is why with no human instrument God will draw people unto him in certain areas or towns etc.

One more point I would like to add the bible states in 1 Peter 4:17 judgement must begin in the house of God. Spirit filled Christians are the instruments God uses do what your called to do, God chooses the vessel to start revival it’s not everyone its Gods man or woman, Charles Finney, Duncan Campbell, John Wesley had their praying teams. Its recorded that Evan Roberts prayed for 13 years before revival started, each had a burden to see a nation changed like George Verwer, my advice would be not to be jealous of people who God has his anointing on for revival but pray God uses them to bless and change all nations of the world.

I believe we are on the edge of the greatest revival the world has ever known. In 1904 approximately 100,000 people over a short period, joined the churches of Wales, I heard it said it would be equivalent to 30 million people in the USA joining the church wow!

My prayer today is Lord Jesus “allow your chosen vessels to awake” we need to feel a fresh move from the throne room.

Pentecost

Start of The Church Pour out a double measure Lord is my prayer for today! I noticed there was an extended length of ‘Thunder and Lighting’ yesterday in Wales, early Saturday morning about 5 am. Could this be a sign that God is ready to release the promised, former and latter rain! Time will tell. I have heard a lot of good news from Christian ministers, that people are starting to be drawn into churches this year; something has started to stir people. Pentecost the day the New Testament church started, I’m not talking about the denomination ‘Pentecost’ with the evidence of tongue talking! No I am talking about Pentecost with the Power to witness of Jesus as the Messiah!             Acts 1:8 A lot can be said about what Jesus intended His church (body) to be like; but too many self-appointed  Apostles, Prophets, Evangelist, Pastors and Teachers are running things (the church).    Ephesians 4:8 If Jesus was walking ...

Muslims Say Jesus Never Died

Image
Did Jesus Really Die Friday acknowledged as the day when Jesus, the Son of God was crucified by orders from Pontius Pilot. Although Muslims will say Jesus was never killed, but the truth is, if Jesus never died Christianity is a lie. It might be a strange event to follow a leader who died. I would not be so ignorant to do such a thing.  You see Buddha, Mohamed and Abraham died etc…  The difference is Jesus died then rose from the dead three days later. Now you might say ‘well that happened 2000 years ago’ I would also agree with that statement, without a shadow of contradiction. The bible teaches us that the death of Jesus Christ, was to take our place, Romans 5 explains this fact,  The strange thing is the Quran Surat Maryam 19:33 even stated that Jesus was going to die! What a strange fact to be found in a book which the religious Muslims leaders teach, Jesus never died. They claim, God saved him by taking Jesus to heaven (pity he did not do the same fo...
