STOP PRAYING FOR REVIVAL


STOP PRAYING FOR REVIVAL

If you think you are going to have a so called revival without Me, you have a serious problem. Your first problem is your understanding of the word revival! Revival has no specific meaning because to each person, it means something different. Revival is so misunderstood because it's not in the bible. Many understand it to mean a church gathering, that draws a lot of people headed up by an evangelistic speaker. To one revival means life has invaded death. To another it means a red hot fire now burns where love had waxed cold. To another it's a church meeting running for several consecutive days until the wee hours of the morning.

What humans call revival, is simply people responding to My manifest presence. I am the life and the fire and a person who is on fire and full of life, is one who carries My presence, with him. Gifted speakers say they can preach revival, but this is not possible. If a whole town, a people group, or nation is deeply effected by My presence, they refer to the place it happened and add the word revival, like the welch revival, or the Lakeland revival. Stop praying for something that cannot come, but must be entered into. If you pray for revival, how do I answer it? What you are asking for, must come from you, not Me! When you make room for Me, I will stay as long as you let Me.

The more room you make for Me in your busy schedule, the more I make for you. At some point you are in My presence most of the time, and you begin to carry it with you, every where you go. At this point you can can call yourself a revived person, or you can call yourself a revival looking for some place to happen. The day I become "greater in you, than he that is in the world," 1 John 4:4 (KJV) you become a one man revival, looking for another person to set on fire. When this is multiplied a thousand times, it means a thousand people have made a lot of room for Me, and carry My presence. This is most likely what you think you are praying for. Stop praying for it, and you be the first to make so much room for Me, that you carry My presence everywhere, then just walk around setting fires.

If the church gives Me a 90 minute service each week, that's how much I will give them. If you give Me a hour a day, that's what you get from Me. What you sow, you reap. Spend more of your day with Me, than with your busy schedule, and you become a revival looking for some place to happen!
