“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.” (II Chronicles 7:14 KJV)
We
need revival in our giving to God. When Abraham obeyed the small voice of the
Lord as He commanded him to sacrifice his son Isaac in Mount Moriah; it was a
message of offering and a message of revival in giving for this generation as well.
(Genesis chapter 22)
Daniel made an influenced and he made an impact in the kingdom of Nebuchadnezzar and
Belshazzar. It was his desire to pray and to stand for the truth and to be a
testimony in the kingdom. (Daniel chapters 3 and 5)
Jonah
the prophet caused a great revival in Nineveh. Although he was known for
disobedience to the calling of God, but Jonah was the only prophet in the Old
Testament who turned the nation upside down. (Jonah chapter 3) Habakkuk prayed;
“O LORD, I have heard thy speech,
and was afraid: O LORD, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst
of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.” (Habakkuk 3:2 KJV)
Apostle
Paul was driven by his passion and he wanted to be a witness to the lost during
his times. No wonder Paul said, (Romans 1:16) “For I am not ashamed of the
gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that
believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” In Acts chapters 16 and 28
and based on his testimonies; Christians began to realize the truth and power
of the Word of God.
My
passion and desire is to see people coming to know Christ as their Lord and
Savior. And I longed for churches to grow in the Lord, and in numbers and be
revived in the work of the Lord. King David said; “Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me:
thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy
right hand shall save me.” (Psalm 138:7 KJV)
