Daily Fresh From God
Topic: True Revival (Apostolic Revival)
Acts 19:17-20 KJV
And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. [18] And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds. [19] Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men : and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. [20] So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.
The certain effect of true revival is a complete turning around from Satan to the living God.
"1 Thessalonians 1:9 KJV
For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;"
This was the experience they had in this city. God did an outstanding miracle in Ephesus, which dropped the fear of God in people's heart and the name of Jesus was magnified.
There was massive repentance, confession and total surrendering to God.
The word of God grew mightily and prevailed, that's the focus of every genuine revival.
We need this genuine revival in our lives, churches, homes and all.
Revival is not when you pray to gratify flesh, it's when you pray to bring down the kingdom of God.
Prayers: Oh Lord my God, help me to be who you have made me to be in Jesus name.
"True revival is praying down the kingdom of God, not praying to gratify the flesh"(Omoloye A A)
