Friends,
Recently I have been thinking more about revival than I ever have. It burns within me so much that I can hardly think of anything else. I long for the Lord to come and bring that awesome move that transcends our globe, where people are not just moved by a few chill bumps or a moment of glory, but where their whole world shifts to a point of no return. Our last crusade was held back in April in Oklahoma but back at the end of February God lead me into a 30 day purification and cleansing time. I am a woman of prayer, but this was indeed a very different call. As I fell before God each day in prayer and cried out, "purify me," God began to stir some deep seated unresolved emotions that I thought had been confronted. It is amazing how when you spend extra time in His presence what He will confront for you......In my weeping and brokenness I ask the Lord what was needed to see a great out-pouring of revival and the Lord gently spoke to my spirit, "Purity!" It's going to take purity of heart to see God move in a way that we have never had Him move. In America we have been so blessed to have most anything that we could ask or think. We have become a Nation that needs God less and less. This self-contained attitude has gotten this Nation in a mess! Material obsessions have stolen our love for God. Everything else is important and priority with God is now considered, "a way of the past." Now, a pure and Godly lifestyle has been replaced with a "religious duty" for maybe one hour on Sunday. Without a true relationship with God, one will find themselves drifting farther away from the truth. We will believe a lie and be dammed without recovery from the death that "Casual Christianity" can cause. SOUND THE ALARM......We are in a desperate and dangerous time, when men will be lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God. ( II Timothy 3 ) King David prayed in Psalms 51...."create in me a clean heart oh God and renew a right spirit in me..." If there was ever a time to wake up it's NOW...allow the Lord to shake you and break you so that you will cry out....."Lord Purify my heart!" Don't leave me this way.....I need to change!!!! God wants to send us REVIVAL......
