STATE OF THE UNION Why do we need a Holy Spirit Revival in our Churches today?
I have been very burdened about the need for a great awakening! As I read the Revivals of the past, I am convinced that we could see Revival again. A hunger for God and His Word to rule our lives and give us the abundant life Jesus talks about John 10:10. I feel like the Thief is stealing and taking ground he has no business taking.
Don't take offense to what I have written just pray for pastor, evangelist, missionaries and our dear folks in the pews of our churches.
Colossians. 2:8,15,18,22. 3:1-2
We are losing ground, churches closing, churches that can’t get a pastor, Young preachers that want all the benefit but don’t want to live by faith. (Excuses: Well, the Lord has told me to take care of my family! - I thought the Lord does that. I guess if the ministry was easy we would be flooded with preachers. What about all the so-called preachers just sitting in a church and not fulfilling their calling.
Philosophy of Men vs Biblical Christianity (What man thinks). (What God thinks) 1. The Lost are influencing Christianity Atheism - The fool hath said in his heart there is no God. Ps 14:1 Agnostics - There may be a God but he has taken his hand of things Humanist - We determine our own destiny. Scotland Lady Critics of Christianity - They hate what the Christian stand for…. Abortion, Alcoholic beverages, Climate change, Dancing, Movies, Gambling
2. Professing Christians are influencing Christianity
False Doctrine - Cults, Churches that have a works salvation Modernism - The Bible contains the word of God, but not all of it. PEN KNIFE Compromise - We don’t need to stand against sins Salvation - Lifestyle and or Confrontational Evangelism Saying you believe it but don’t practice it Tithing/offerings - Awe, that’s Old Testament No outreach people are not sharing their faith (Testimony) No Visitation to those in need.
3. Churches are very fragile and even weak -
ICHABOD - The glory is departed. I Sam 4:21 Opinions, Wanting it your way Feuds No leadership - Pastor wont’t take a stand or if he does he will be replaced. Because Churches Split or Were started in rebellion.
4. Lack of Pastors and Churches
Some cities with 100k people and no gospel witness. Some churches have gone bad or closed where there was a witness.
5. No discipleship - Matthew 28:20 NO Training Center: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you. No teaching the principles of God’s Word so people know what they believe.
6. Reasons why Churches are not growing Signs of the times - Excuses Lazy Christianity- To busy Cutting services, NO Revivals, NO Missions emphasis, NO Missionaries NO Outreach NO Prayer meetings Men & Women Prayer meetings NO Fasting
7. Church with a lack of Commitment What happen to the Lord’s day?
Sunday AM is enough Will not join Won’t witness or doesn’t know how Afraid to offend Giving in to mediocrity -Awe, someone else will do it, I’ve never been called, NO Tithing - some are so far in debt they don’t think they can. Mal 3:10 - NO Missions giving Pastor has to be Bi-Vocational because folks won’t give.
8. Missionaries not teaching their churches to be Indigenous.
Some are just pastors not missionaries - these are not third world countries Lost their vision - killing time between Sundays Blaming the culture Will not help and assist other missionaries Often critical of each other - especially if they are being out done. Missionaries using other missionaries to build their work and not wanting to send them out to start other churches.
We need a GREAT AWAKENING in our PULPITS and our PEWS! Keep looking up Dr. Dan Knickerbocker Evangelist

WHAT A JOY TO BE IN THE MINISTRY
We celebrate 45 years married and in the ministry! The year started out great. We saw some souls saved and decision at the altar, even with tears! The Bible says, "They that sow in tears shall reap in joy." Psalm 126:5 I know that speaks of the sower but also I see the one reaping Salvation.

CAN WE SEE REVIVAL IN OUR LIFETIME? Ps 85:6,12. Is it possible? - With God all things are possible Mark 10:27 An Evangelist son, who is a preacher, told me, “America will never see a national revival”. IS HE GOD? I get a little tired of the conclusions men come up with. God’s Word is the only Authority! Our nation is in Anarchy, Our churches are in Apathy, Our God is wanting an Awakening! Americas is ripe for a great awakening. THOU HAST….. - in the Past v1-4 Been favourable v1 Forgiven the iniquity v2 Taken away all thy wrath v3 Turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger v3 Turned us, O God, v4 80:3 Turn us again, O God
WILT THOU…. v5-6 in the Present v5-6 Be angry with us forever? v5 Draw out thy anger to all generations v5 Not revive us again that thy people may rejoice in thee v6
YEA, THE LORD SHALL…..v 7-13 in the Future v12 Show us his mercy v7 Grant us thy salvation v7 Speak peace unto his people v8 but let not them turn back to folly v8 That glory may dwell in our land v9 Mercy and truth / righteousness and peace v10 Give that which is good and our land shall yield her increase v12 Set us in the way of his steps v13 G.Campbell Morgan - REVIVAL cannot be organized, but we can set our sails to catch the wind from heaven when God chooses to blow on his people once again! Vance Havner - REVIVAL is the church falling involve with Jesus all over again Andrew Murray - REVIVAL is casting our the spirit of Worldliness, making God’s love triumphant in the heart. James McQuilkin - If God has visited his people before , He can and will do it again! Quotes from The Baptist Vision Mar/Apr 2009
You know you need revival when...... your deliberately rebellious toward God and others your just decently right with God.
Revival is when your filled with the Power of God! be filled with the Spirit !
