Re: Where is the revival?

Well as far as people accepting Christ there are meetings in Africa where hundreds of thousands accept him at one time.

of God is within you."


The ones who are manifesting "...the praises of Him who called you out of darkness and unto His marvelous light..." are not seeking a revival![

I think you misunderstand the question. With what was shared about the book of Acts, those were not seeking "revival" - it simply happened. Don't let the notion of seeking throw you off from what is being asked. He is asking if you are seeing or know of anyplace where similar as we see in Acts is happening.

At least that is how I have taken it. (Correct me if I am wrong, Esaias.)

Re: Where is the revival?

Awakening, revival, souls added to the church... I think they all have something in common! Throughout the ages since the HG was first poured out on the church, there have been lows and highs in what the spirit of God has been able to accomplish in the lives of people. MTD got it right - whenever a group of people set their mind to obey, seek after the Lord, humble themselves, and have a healthy fear of God... things will happen. Lives will be changed and souls will be added to the church. It can happen anywhere and at anytime, but I believe it does have to start first with hearts that are hungry for the Lord and willing to offer up themselves to Him as a living sacrifice, and be willing to pay whatever price may come for the furtherance of the gospel.

Re: Where is the revival?

Esaias - perhaps the Lord is birthing a hunger in you, and those in your small group (which is all it takes - the Lord never works in the majority... but his work and his will most of the time have been done in the minority) - and maybe through this hunger of yours and desire for revival, awakening, whatever... the Lord is bringing about a season in your life where you will be part of a movement towards the Lord like not seen in our lifetime. I certainly pray for it here, where we are at, and believe that if hearts are hungry enough, and willing to sacrifice for the gospel.... the work of the Lord will increase mightily.

The last month or so the Lord has been showing us some things, like that the presence of God is sanctifying, so that grace may be DEMONSTRATED as a REALITY to those who do not yet know God. I do not have delusions of grandeur nor do I fancy myself as the current Last Day Prophet of God (tm) or anything. But I KNOW (that I know that I know) that God is up to something and I want to go wherever the fiery cloudy pillar goes.

THE key word there is "manifesting". Lots of praise going on, but God's praises must be MANIFESTED. Or "wherein shall the nations know that we have found grace in thy sight?"
