Revival Now
August 9, 2022
Lord where art thou?
Right about now, most if not all of us are ready for change, a revival type change. Also I would presume most of you reading this have also prayed like me, “ God we need you, we need revival now!”
So what does this word “revival” ? means an improvement. Or doctors use this right they may say “wow the patient has revived” meaning to come back from what seemed like certain death.
Doesn’t that sound like the Church? The Church NEEDS a revival because the book of acts represents a church that was a lot stronger than we are today! Shouldn’t we be stronger today than in the past? I mean we have iphones now! Shouldn’t we be better? At our fingertips we have more information than Kings did in the past!!!! Think about it! At our fingertips!
Pointing Fingers
A loser always points his fingers, but a winner raises his arms! This will be key to our next revival. Stop complaining and blaming and let’s start worshiping! When we pray when we worship, we usher in the very presence of God!
When you were young, you ever had a busy father and as you ran to him “Daddy Daddy look at what I can do, come here Daddy let’s go!” and your Daddy might respond with” Not now, Daddy is busy” how did that make you feel! Well Daddy God even with a full schedule NEVER DOES THAT! At a moment’s notice we have access to the King of Kings 24/7! I think this is so understated! We have complete access, there’s no business hours!
In fact it says in:
Psalms 100:4
“Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.”
So the key here is:
- Thanksgiving (for the now)
- Praise (worship)
- Be thankful (for what he has done in your life)
- Bless Him (acknowledge and bless his name, he is worthy)
Now that you have an audience with the King, what will you do? Consider that.
While I was doing this, the Lord Jesus came to me and let me tell you, every fiber of every cell of my body KNEW it was the One who made me! Immediately I had this urge NOT TO BE EMPTY HANDED! And so I looked to the left and I looked to the right but I couldn’t find anything worthy to give to Jeshua. He kept getting closer and closer and closer until at the last moment I reached in and grabbed my heart from my chest, pulled it out and reached out and gave it to Jeshua! Let me tell you He was pleased!
He is no respecter of persons meaning what will you do when he shows up and is in your living room or bedroom! Consider it.
In this Day
God our father still to this day wants to co-labor with us. We’re waiting on God but God is waiting on us, lol. We have come so far in time but yet the process is still the same.
Genesis 2:19
“And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.”
This is such a loving verse! God can do anything and yet he made the beasts of the field and notice it say God BROUGHT THEM TO ADAM! Adam didn’t go to the animals. It says God wanted to see what Adam would call them. God was excited and happy with anticipation on what ADAM would call each animal! But this highlights how God still wants to co-labor with us even to this day! God truly wants a relationship, a partnership if you will, a family. God could have done everything, he could have made the animals AND named them but no God held back and wanted to see what Adam would name them! How sweet when you think about it.
So we have some ingredients now don’t we?
- Don’t complain but praise and worship Him
- Co-labor with Him
Now for the last ingredient I place before you this verse:
Matthew 10:13
“And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.”
We have been given a supernatural ability but how many of us are using it? We have the ability according to Matthew 10:13 to release peace into the atmosphere and the ability to call it back!
Stop looking for an atmosphere and become ONE!
This goes along with the saying “ I want to see change!” , Well why don’t you become the change that you want to see! It’s so true.
You make a Difference
You really do have the supernatural ability to change the atmosphere around you. In my case whenever my dad came home from work I could hear growl from his truck’s engine and I could hear the tires as they hummed down the street and then came to a stop at my house. Instantly this fear would come over me. I didn’t know what kind of mood he was in. I didn’t know if he was going to yell at me or just ignore me. But you could just feel the atmosphere change. Even when he walked into a room my dad’s ego could barely fit into a room! His presence just had this effect.
So this effect as you can see be for good or for bad.
There was a documentary years ago about a satanic witch trying to flee from the occult. On her way to seek deliverance, the people in the building could sense she was coming from blocks away! They felt the atmosphere shift THEN they saw her come into the building.
So how much more power as God’s children do we have? When you arrive at church or at your workplace your very presence has the power to shift the atmosphere.
Now to change the atmosphere we can:
- Our very presence can shift atmosphere
- We can speak into the atmosphere and change it
As you start a new job for example, what do most people think? “ I hope they like me” or “ I hope it is peaceful there unlike my last job”
No no no. You have the power to shift that atmosphere just to release peace from your spirit out of faith. The kingdom of heaven truly resides inside of you, release it! You can release favor, peace, joy whatever is inside of you from God. We release what we carry inside.
Some of the people release porn. Thats why you see hidden pornography in Disney movies and films. If its inside the artist then its gonna come out and manifest itself as art, pornographic art.
Now you see why people do what they do! I don’t believe this is what the originator Walt Disney had in mind when he first created Disney.
So in conclusion, revival is in us! Let’s co-labor with God! And release the revival that is in us!
Prayer:
Father God according to the word of God in Matthew 10:13 by faith I release the joy, the peace, the revival and the anointing of God right now! May healings break out, may your joy manifest right now and above all we need your presence! We pray for a habitation of the kingdom of God that never leaves but stays, in Jesus name amen!
I truly love you all,
