     | 11,152 views

    Religious history shows that God periodically sends spiritual stirrings! But Charles Finney proved that God is ready to send His Spirit when the conditions for revival are right. We must seize these seasons of refreshing to bring revival to our world.

    TIMES OF REFRESHING Acts 3:19-20 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. There are a lot of people who need revival! 2. One lady, Vickie, called a lawyer’s office. She made an appointment with their Family Law department. 3. "How can I help you, ma’am?" asks the lawyer. "Is it true," ...read more

     | 2,468 views

    We tend to pray for the salvation of someone we know, or for a job, or for the return of the LORD, or some other issue, and He answers it in a way that either we don't expect or like. Let's not forget that God is in charge. His will overrides our ideals.

    I want to share with you an insight that the LORD impressed upon me pertaining to prayer and how the LORD graciously answers our petitions and requests presented before Him. You are probably familiar with the saying that He answers our prayers three ways: Either "Yes", "No", ...read more

    The King of Nineveh took off his robe and put on sackcloth and sat in ashes to signify his humble repentance before the Almighty God. There is nothing God can’t do with a repentant church and true revival will break forth when this happens.

    We read in Jonah 3:6, “When the king of Nineveh heard about it, he got up from his throne, took off his robe, put on sackcloth, and sat down in ashes.” (GNB) Jonah was sent by God to the city of Nineveh, and the message that Jonah preached was that the city would be destroyed in forty days.

    God says, “I have done it myself.” Instead of striving to do good deeds, to climb the walls of the pit to escape from sin, we must recognize our own inability. “All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23).

    What does it feel like to be in God’s presence? Have you ever felt his presence in a moment in time? It’s royal, God’s presence. Like royalty is present. It’s soft, like a whisper.
