Revival

One of the hallmarks of the Assemblies of God and Pentecostals has been revival. The supernatural move of God among His people. We were birthed out of the revival that swept America at the beginning of the 20th century as God poured out His Spirit. From Topeka, to Azusa St, to Hot Springs, God was moving.

Our Assemblies of God General Superintendent George Wood recently put out a video message on revival. It's a good test for us and also a good benchmark for us as we continue to pursue God. Is it feelings? Is it volume? Is it the supernatural? What do we need to focus on as we seek for revival in northern DeKalb County, IL?

Check out this video and let it be a guide for your life and prayers.

Proverb of the Day: Proverbs 16:18 Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.

Scripture of the Day: 1 Corinthians 14:1 Follow the way of love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy.

Quote of the Day: In the Irish Revival of 1859, people became so weak that they could not get back to their homes. Men and women would fall by the wayside and would be found hours later pleading with God to save their souls. They felt that they were slipping into hell and that nothing else in life mattered but to get right with God... To them eternity meant everything. Nothing else was of any consequence. They felt that if God did not have mercy on them and save them, they were doomed for all time to come. Oswald Smith
