This generation of Christians is responsible for this generation of souls on the earth!
Whole days and weeks have I spent prostrate on the ground in silent or vocal prayer.
Gandhi has sound economic and cultural reasons for encouraging the revival of cottage industries, but he does not counsel a fanatical repudiation of all modern progress. Machinery, trains, automobiles, the telegraph have played important parts in his own colossal life! Fifty years of public service, in prison and out, wrestling daily with practical details and harsh realities in the political world, have only increased his balance, open-mindedness, sanity, and humorous appreciation of the quaint human spectacle.
Hate brings me to my knees, love gets me on my feet.
Mr. Tillerson has always been quite a tough negotiator and we understand that he's using lots of information and materials that have been prepared by people in State of Department who, well modestly, speaking are not the fans of my country and of revival of bilateral relationship between America and Russia.
The depth of revival will be determined exactly by the depth of the spirit of repentance.
When I pray for revival I pray first for the most radical thing: The utter devotion and allegiance of your hearts to Christ. That you would love Him so deeply and long for Him so passionately that His coming would be your great hope, and death would be gain, and life would be for Christ and His kingdom.
Revival comes from heaven when heroic souls enter the conflict determined to win or die - or if need be, to win and die! The kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
History is silent about revivals that did not begin with prayer.
While there remains one dark soul without the light of God, I'll fight - I'll fight to the very end!
I do want to pray for the Lord to glorify himself and, yes, I also will pray for an outpouring of his Spirit, but I also will rejoice in what he is doing now, and I will try to be a faithful steward of the gospel by preaching it "in season and out of season", as Paul reminds us. So I want to be careful not to make an idol out of revival, or to rely upon it to the point where I don't plan for evangelism.
God's cause is committed to men; God commits Himself to men. Praying men are the vice-regents of God; they do His work and carry out His plans.
Revival precedes evangelism. The church must first repent. This is the blind spot in our eye today.
The conservative revival cannot be dismissed.
Spirituality is revival of our God consciousness, not creating something new.
When God becomes routine rather than revival, it's time to switch things up.
True revival can only be ignited by God, but God will always move through men.
Revival is not just a feeling of excitement of the Lord. We get excited about many things, but excitement is not a revival if God is not the thing that gets us excited.
The story of Christian reformation, revival, and renaissance underscores that the darkest hour is often just before the dawn, so we should always be people of hope and prayer, not gloom and defeatism. God the Holy Spirit can turn the situation around in five minutes.
Prayer does not mean asking God for all kinds of things we want, it is rather the desire for God Himself, the only Giver of Life.
If you can explain what is happening in a church, apart from the sovereign act of God, it is not revival.
God is calling forth a generation that is passionate for His presence. A generation that knows who they are and Whose they are. He is calling forth sons and daughters who don't find their identity in revival but in Christ. For the Great Commission must flow out of the Great Commandment. Our destinies must flow out of our identities as beloved children of God who know their worth, value and honor before the Father...we have nothing to prove and nothing to lose...It is the time for change. IT is time for revival and reformation in this generation.
It is easier to speak about revival than to set about it.
A genuine revival without joy in the Lord is as impossible as spring without flowers, or day-dawn without light.
A revival of religion presupposes a declension.
