"Oh Send a Revival..."

       "Oh Send a Revival, Oh Send a Revival, Oh Send A Revival, and Let it begin with me!"

"If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." - 2cd Chronicles 7:14

     Theres been books on the subject. Theres been testimonies about the subject. Thousands upon thousands of preachers preached on it praying that God will pour out his Holy Spirit onto the people. From what Ive recently learned, you can study about it, you can hear peoples testimonies about it, but unless youve witness with your own eyes, and felt the change within your heart, and seen it manifest into your own lives, you dont know what Revival is! God has been moving amongst the Freewill Baptist in Southeast Michigan since September 14th, 2012. It started with Tecumseh, then it moved from there to Ypsilanti and spread to some of the sister churches around us! Without sounding wierd or out there, its like the events written down in The Book of Acts. Tonight it will be officially 36 days since this all started.

"And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart." - Acts 2:46

      Your probably wondering "what does this testimony have to do with the verse you posted in the beginning of this blog/devotion?" It has everything to do with it! It has everything to do with it simply because God is drawing his people, which are called by his name, to him. As his people, as Christians, begin to humble themselves from their pride, admit their wrongs, faults, and failures, pray genuinly, turn from wickedness and turn to God searching him out honestly and wholeheartedly, God will begin to move!

"Draw night to God, and he will draw night to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded." - James 4:8

"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peave, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart." - Jeremiah 29:11-13

"But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." - Hebrews 11:6

    
       If your a believer I pray this news and devotion does encourage you in the walk of faith founded in the Lord Jesus Christ but pray that God continues to bring the rain and bless us during this Revival. We are letting the Lord lead, we dont know who is preaching, we arent planning ahead of God's will since we want God in control he chooses the preacher and each night he has. And we pray that this doesnt stay in Southeast Michigan but spreads out. And we pray that it just dont affect the Freewill Baptist but everyone who is born again. When God sees a man, when God sees his church, he dont see denomination or allegiance, he sees saint or sinner, faithful or backslidden, on fire, coldas ice, or lukewarm, spirit-filled or apostate, if God is gonna revive the church its not just gonna be the Freewill Baptist but the whole Body of Christ. Please pray and thank you.
