Stand with me in agreement that revival breaks out across our world.. men, women and children see their need for Jesus as their Saviour.. they repent and are born again.. People are healed and set free from all sorts of health concerns and bondages.. all for the glory of God!! Halleujah.. His Kingdom comes and the knowledge of Him covers the earth as the waters cover the seas!!
Oh yes! Glory to God! Do it, Lord! You said You would cover the earth with the knowledge of Your glory as the waters cover the sea.
I was just thinking about this this morning.....and praying for this.
Cover the earth, Lord!
Ho! I just got this in my Spirit - we're the ones to do it. We're the ones to take this glorious message everywhere we go. The Lord will confirm His Word with signs following. We preach the gospel, they hear, faith arises, and they can be saved.
Be bold, saints! You're the vessels, we're the vessels He has chosen to get the Word out. We're Ambassadors of Christ! We're ministers of reconciliation.

Second, practice your religion without adulterating it or toning it down. Third, emphasize love and make it your working force, for love is central in Christianity. Fourth, study the non-Christian religions more sympathetically to find the good that is within them in order to have a more sympathetic approach to the people.”
Hello everyone, my name is Michael. I have been a Christian for about 18 years.
During that time I have gone from being a Free Will Baptist, to attending a small gathering (8 or 9) Spirit filled believers in a store front church.
While attending the Free Will Baptist church I taught Sunday school from preschool to senior adult and also ministered as an assistant children’s church Pastor.
I filled in at different churches for absentee Pastors and occasionally preached at different churches whenever invited too.
I have worked in churches as a janitor, a yard maintenance person, an usher, a musician, and a television camera operator.
I also attended and graduated from a small Bible college for two years.
My wife and I since becoming Christians have been a part of 5 different churches and have sat under 6 different Pastors.
At the present time it seems like we are in the worst dry season we have ever experienced in our Christian walk.
It seems like there is nothing good going on, we both feel out of place and yet we cannot leave for we feel there is no place for us to go where we will have anything better available for us.
We are both very dry, and very discouraged, when we started out we both felt great joy in serving and looked toward the future hopefully with a victorious expectation.
But now to be perfectly honest we are both wondering if all that was just a waste and there never was any cause for hope and no reason to have faith that God did ever have any kind of calling on either of our lives.
We have sat and wept together many times late into the night discussing it all and have often said maybe we just need to find any church anywhere and just go, and do nothing.
We are NOT about to give up and NOT be Christians anymore, but we are desperately down and deeply discouraged right now, and we need some answers and a true touch from God.
We need a right now on time specific word from the heart of God that will definitely witness with our hearts that it really is from God and not just some made up flesh thing that the person who speaks it said to just to make us feel good temporarily.
I’m not against being spoken over by Prophets and Prophetesses of God, but I’ve heard ’WORD’ until my heart is grieved with it and had prophesies spoken over me until I am heavily weighed down with them all if someone understands what I mean.
We need to know if where we are is really where God wants us to be, and if there really is a true Ministry calling from God for our lives, and it has to be a true witness to our hearts that will give us that once and for all absolute true witness of fact from the heart of God.
God bless you and thank you so much for your prayers of agreement!
Michael, praying for you and your wife. I offer you this from I Sam 30 - When David and his men came back to camp and found that their wives and families had been taken & their camp had been destroyed, scripture says that they lifted up their voices and wept until they didn't have the strength to cry anymore.
Then I noticed something I had never seen before - scripture says "...but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God." It doesn't give the details But he did.
AFTER David had encouraged himself in the Lord, THEN he looked to Yahweh for the answers to his questions - his problems.
Plus there are other verses such as Neh 8:10 "...for the joy of the LORD is your strength." Psalm 22:3 says that "Godinhabits the praises of His people."
Sometimes it's not what we feel like doing but .

Tturt: Thanks, I know what you're speaking about and yes you are 100% right.
I do have to be totally honest though I'm at a very desperate dry place Spiritually right now and have been experiencing some pretty tough times of nothing positive taking place in any area of my life.
There are certain things that I needed God to do 6 months ago that I have begged him to do that have
not yet been done.
Now I'm at a place where these things must get done very quickly.
I can't preach and tell people God is faithful because I feel like I haven't experienced that in my own life for quite some time, and I can't pray for people because I feel like God isn't going to answer any prayers I pray since he hasn't done this for so long now.
Aww.. I wish I had the time tonight to answer you.. but I do understand where you are coming from and feeling..
I have prayed for a person.. stood in faith for them for a very long time.. But I am seeing that even though to me it doesn't seem done.. it is.. because God said ask and you shall recieve.. so I shall!!!
God is rock solid we can stand assured.. Don't beg Him.. just believe.. Trust is believing without seeing.. rather then seeing your prayer answered.. put your faith in God!! For with Him.. nothing is impossible.. Keep your eyes on Him.. and You will not be dissapointed..

I pray that the anointing of God, as I witnessed while ushering for Kathryn Kuhlman, show Himself strong on our behalf and come into our home and heal my wife totally; physically, emotionally and spiritually, for we know the Giver of Life does not partially heal nor the word of God return unto us void or show itself to have no meaning. If in this life only we have hope, we are of all men most miserable. Touch Donna, Lord Jesus, I pray. I thank you that she recieved her healing by way of the cross and we thank you for meeting our immediate need right now, at this moment, as I pray in Jesus name. To God be the glory forever and ever. Amen
