Book Description
God said to me, Why is there no lasting revival? Most revivals don't last long. They start up. Sometimes it takes a while to start them up. But sometimes they start up and then they fizzle out. Five years is a very long revival. I've been in a revival where it's been two years, I've been in a revival that was only six months. And you got to understand whatever the timetable is, there are different levels of revival. But why isn't there any long-lasting revival, and I got some things that I'm going to get into here, but I'm going to be jumping around. But I really believe that we have gotten to be in a delusion in the church. People don't even know what they're asking for when they ask for revival, they want revival to come. They want God to move in the church. But then when God begins to shift and begin to try to do it, they're like, oh, I don't want that. Let me tell you something, you cannot say what the revival is going to be. You can't choose the revival. You can't even choose the people that are going to come to it. Come on, we would like to choose. And it's you say all that, what's wrong with that? There's something wrong with that. But you got to understand, I couldn't have a choice, God's that kind of God, sometimes he'll bring some of those people. And they'll come and they'll plop it down in the seat. And they'll have the stirring like they never left. And I'm telling you, there's a lot of things that are happening, but we have been delusional for so long. And there are some things that are about to happen because we want the stirring of revival, but we don't want the change. Let me tell you, some revival is going to come and it's going to change everything. It's gonna change the way you even look at church.

God Is a Gift
Author: Doug Reed
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780984643141
Category : Grace (Theology)
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
Doug Reed uses important insights from scripture, the historical context of Jesus's day, and personal experience to prove God's fervent passion to give Himself to us. When we understand God's purpose, we begin to see His presence in places we thought He was absent. We come to know God not as one who occasionally visits but as one who abides, always giving His gift, even when we suffer defeat, weakness, and loss. God is a Gift is invaluable for overcoming fear and finding a life filled with God's presence. It reveals how grace revolutionizes our relationship with the Lord. Topics include understanding the New Covenant, living in the gift of righteousness, abundant life, worship, and intimacy with God.

Revival and Revivalism
Author: Iain Hamish Murray
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 490
Book Description
Murray analyses a crucial period in American religious history,with particular attention to the major theme of the nature ofreligious revival. He rejects the common identification of revival & revivalism, showing that the latter differed from the former both in its origins & in its implications. Whereas in the earlier period, revival was understood as supernatural & heaven-sent, in the later period the ethos was much more man-centred & the methods employed much closer to the manipulative. The change in perspective can be summed up by saying that revival was first viewed as OEsent down, but later seen as OEworked up. A pivotal figure in the change & a major promoter of the new methods, was Charles Grandison Finney (1792-1875). Murray traces developments from the time of Samuel Davies (1763-61), through the age of the Second Great Awakening, to the New York Awakening of 1857-8. In addition to Davies & Finney, major leaders whose names recur in these pages include Archibald Alexander (1772-1851) of Princeton Theological Seminary, Edward D. Griffin (1770-1837) & Asahel Nettleton (1783-1844).Arnold DallimoreAn outstanding biography, scholarly, yet popularly written, of theleading preacher of the eighteenth-century evangelical revival.Whitefield (1714-70) is acknowledged to have made a greaterimpact on evangelical Christianity on both sides of the Atlanticthan any other preacher of the eighteenth century. The firstvolume traces the early career of Whitefield to the end of 1740, atwhich point the twenty-six-year-old was already the most brilliantand popular preacher of the time, and had already, at age 24,commanded the largest congregations yet seen in America. Thesecond volume traces the doctrinal conflict with John and CharlesWesley, Whitefield?s visits to Scotland and Wales, as well as theAmerican colonies, and the emergence of a Calvinistic branch ofMethodism. Also provided are details of Whitefield?s marriage,friendships, ceaseless labours and early death aged 55. The two-volume set casts new light on Whitefield?s early life in Gloucester,religious conditions in England at the commencement of hispreaching ministry, his influence on the Great Awakening of 1739-40 in America, his relationships with the Wesleys, hisphilanthropic endeavours and his impact on all classes of Englishsociety including the aristocracy.

A God-Sized Vision
Author: Collin Hansen
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310558697
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Can God stir revival by his Holy Spirit, even in our culture today? Do we really believe he can? In a day of diminished expectations, A God-Sized Vision: Revival Accounts That Stretch and Stir recounts global examples of prior revivals, beginning with the Reformation and the Great Awakenings. It continues with the Welsh and Azusa Street revivals and those that occurred simultaneously in Asia, followed by the East Africa Revival of the 1930s. More recent revivals in North America that instigated parachurch or evangelistic ministries like those of Billy Graham and the revivals in China, particularly in Henan Province over the last forty years, give further evidence of church renewal. These stories enlarge our hearts, expand our minds, and empower our witness to the power of God at work in human history. Christians with a deep evangelistic commitment who realize that there is more to church growth than field-tested techniques will expand their vision by remembering God’s vision, as it has been revealed throughout history. Hansen and Woodbridge mine these stories of renewal to suggest how to get ready for revival today.

The Power of God at WorkCharles Finney’s ministry led to some of the most amazing revivals that have ever occurred in the United States or England.
