LET THERE BE REVIVAL!!!
ASK THOSE WHO SAW THE REVIVAL OF 1970s AND 1980s, THEY WILL TELL YOU WHY WE ARE CRYING OVER THIS
“FIRELESSNESS” WE ARE SEEING IN OUR GENERATION OF BELIEVERS….
John Knox prayed: “Lord, Give me Scotland or I die”…
St Patrick, a rugged believer that brought even dead animals and trees back to life prayed…”God, Give me souls or give me nothing else”….
Brethren during the Hebrides revival prayed…”Lord, If you will not use us, please, kill us”…
The brethren from England who brought the Fire from Azusa Street revival gathered everyday under the terrible cold…their only prayer point was…”Lord, give us men that will spread Your Fire on the streets of England”…
During the Indonesia Revival, those hungry hearts were seen praying day and night…”Lord, The harvest is ripe…if it pleases You, please use us”.
One prayer that was common during the days of William Seymour was…”Lord, this is another day that hell must lose men and women. Please, we
are here…Use us”…
Paul said…”Woe is me if I preach not the gospel”
Rachel said to her husband, Jacob…”Give me children or I die”
But unfortunately, our churches are filled today with people who are not ashamed of spiritual bareness…we are asking…”God give me money…God give me spouse…God give me visa”.
Where do we see believers again that will be praying and fasting, and when you listen to them, you will be hearing…”Lord, let Your Fire fall in my community and let their be revival”?
When Paul encountered Christ, he fell and rose…What He asked was…”Lord, what will You
have me do”…
But today, when we fall under anointing, we stand to start expecting
marriage proposals and visas and employment
letters.
Man of God, this generation of members in our churches have not had a genuine encounter with the Man of Calvary..
No generation has carried Bibles like us without opening it…No generation is materially driven like ours and we expect the land to obey us.
Jesus said, pray to the Father that He brings His Kingdom on earth.
GOD help us to get it on time. Amen.
Isn’t it strange how N500 seems like such a large amount when we give it as offering, BUT such a small amount when u go shopping? Isn’t it strange how 2hrs seem so long when you are at place of worship BUT how short they seem when you are watching a good movie? Isn’t it strange dat you can’t find a word to say when u’re to make supplication to God, BUT you have no trouble thinking of what to gist about with a friend?
Isn’t it strange how difficult and boring it is to read one chapter of the scriptures, BUT how easy it is to read 100 pages of a popular novel/magazine? Isn’t it strange how everyone wants front-row-tickets to concerts, film house or games, BUT they do whatever is possible to sit at d last row in the holy gathering?
Isn’t it strange how everyone wants a place in Paradise, BUT they don’t want to believe, do, or say anything to get there? Isn’t it strange how we send jokes in emails, BBM, Whatsapp, BC & they are forwarded right away, BUT when we are going to share messages about God, we think about it twice before we share it with others?
Are you moved by this piece, why not give it a thought and confess it all into God and say this prayers…..
