Revival Posts January 2009

This month we begin a series of prayer events seeking God for a revival in our land. This is a time for us reflect on the various outpourings and awakenings that have occurred across the globe over the past hundred years or so. The first that we will look into is the Welsh Revival, you can read about this at http://books.google.com/books?id=Ks0CAAAAQAAJ&printsec=frontcover&dq=welsh+revival#PPR9,M1.

Our prayer for this year and as long as the Lord leads us to continue has the following scriptural basis:

Habakkuk 3:2
(KJV) 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 [yourself] known; ...


Psalm 85:6
(AMP) Will You not revive us again, that Your people may rejoice in You?


These two scriptures will be the theme for our prayer session and we invite you to join us...

"Almost eight years while still living in Tulsa, Oklahoma, I had a vision of Caribbean that has stayed with me. I was taken in the spirit above the Caribbean, as I looked across the area there was a great explosion that began in what seemed like one geographic location and spread across the entire region. The explosion reminded me of what I had seen as the atomic blast in Nagasaki and Hiroshima, Japan. It came up in the form of mushroom like cloud and the blast immediately expanded to across the Caribbean."

We have had other prophetic releases of God's purpose to have an awakening in our region and others Like William J. Seymour and Charles Parham who over a hundred years ago prophesied that our day would see the greatest awakening the earth has ever known. It has not yet come to pass and like Daniel, we have reviewed the writings and set our face to seek the Lord.

Pray for us that God will indeed move to meet us at our place of petition.
