Two Absolute Necessities for Real Change, Reform, Revival, for God to Move!

There is a cry by many for revival – as if we are waiting on God. Not. God is waiting on those who call themselves His to repent, to lay down their life in this fleeting world, to deny self, take up the cross and follow Jesus authentically.

People seeking God, hungering for what is missing in their lives – JESUS – is a blessing. We know He is the One doing this because our LORD Jesus Christ told us that He’d “draw all men” to Himself after accomplishing the cross, perfect redemption! (John 12:32; 1 John 4:19) Yet wolves who capitalize upon, who exploit, and make merchandise of these people are diabolical~! (Matthew 21:15-17; 2 Peter 2:1-3, etc.).

The cry of the many for revival is a set up in most cases – where those wolves in sheep’s clothing call for revival while they set up the prey to receive a false “revival” which does not align with what we see in Holy Scripture (2 Timothy 3:16-17).

“When you’ve been to as many ‘revivals’ as I have been (in years past) yet never see anything of the Spirit revived in the attendees over several years, you come to realize (discern) that so-called revival meetings are just futile works of the flesh. Romans 8:8 et al.” Disciple of Christ

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1

If you want real revival, wait no longer! Don’t wait for some deceiver to announce that “God is moving in this place”! Obey Jesus now! Open God’s real Word, the King James Bible, and read it like your life and eternal souls depend upon it because they do! Come to full repentance. Lay down your life in this fleeting world, deny (disown) your own life, take up the cross (crucified life), and follow Jesus for real! (Luke 9:23-24; 13:3; 14:33; 17:33; 19:27, etc.)

When a man doesn’t open the Bible, the King James Bible, and preach, teach, communicate straight from the Scriptures, you know he’s false (2 Kings 22-23; Nehemiah 8:1-10; Matthew 28:18-20; Luke 4:16-17; Acts 17:2; 2 Timothy 4:2, etc.). Oh and this must be constant and perpetual, front and center – not casual or as a trite token gesture or afterthought.

“What we see in 2 Kings 22-23 is totally different than what we see today. Today in what’s falsely called ‘revival’, there is no repentance, no Gospel, no ‘clearing out the sanctuary’, of the idols, and embracing and promoting false teachings that go as far as mysticism and witch craft!!” Khrista

“Bible study on Biblical Revival 2 Kings 22:14-23:27:
Here is the order of events: The prophet(ess) shares a prophecy of judgment. The King repents and intercedes for his people. The Lord hears and delays the judgment for the king’s lifetime. The king gathers all of his people to the Lord’s temple to hear Scripture read out loud. Then the King and his people make (or renew) a covenant with the Lord to follow His decrees and statutes with all of their hearts and minds. Then action is immediately taken (this is faith: belief in action) by clearing out all of the artifacts of pagan gods from the temple. The King defiled all of the high places and tore down the alters of pagan gods where God’s people had previously worshiped Baal, Ashtoreth, and Molech (the god of child sacrifice/abortion).” Renee Courtland

The word “revival” appears nowhere in God’s Word. “Repent”/ “Repentance” appear 72 times. Let’s get a clue. This is a message in and of itself. We don’t need man’s staged “revivals,” we need to repent before a Holy God!

God has not changed (Malachi 3:6; Mark 13:31). Man’s sin has greatly prevented His will and desire to bless, to pour out of His Holy Spirit. His arm is not shortened. When we draw nigh to the LORD, He will draw nigh to us! (READ Isaiah 59:1-2; James 4:8; Jeremiah 5:25; 29:11-14.) We must of absolute necessity come to the lord on His stated terms which begins with true repentance (Luke 13:3; Acts 2:38; 3:19, etc.).

Wicked men have made a multi-million dollar indu$try of “revival” and yet the word nor concept ever appears in Holy Scripture. This is only possible due to the biblical illiteracy of the counterfeits who claim to be saved (Hosea 4:6; Matthew 22:29; 2 Timothy 4:2-4).

“A worldwide revival in the last days is not prophesied in scripture. This is a Vatican, NAR (New Apostolic Reformation), WOF (Word of Faith) false teaching. The Bible teaches there will be great apostasy–a great falling away. Believe the Bible!” Unknown

God Blesses only Where His Written Word is Honored

When God’s Word is honored, thereby, where and when He pours out of His Holy Spirit on His people, it comes in conjunction with His people honoring His Word. Here are but few examples of such:

Nehemiah, Ezra and the elders: When the LORD’s people assembled, they read God’s Word directly to the people (Nehemiah 8).
Josiah: Reform, repentance, crushing idols, and change came as the Word of God was restored to the people (2 Kings 23).
Peter: The apostle preached God’s Word and 8,000 souls were saved (Acts 2, 4).
Jesus: When he went into the gathering of the people, He read from the Bible, the book of Isaiah (Luke 4:17).

Change, Reform Comes Only When God is Honored, Where His Word is Front and Center.

“Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.” Habakkuk 2:2

God uses Consecrated Men

Those He uses are holy. They readily admit their sin and fall on the mercy of the LORD and are then forgiven, refreshed, filled, and mightily used of God! See 2 Timothy 2:21; Isaiah 6; Matthew 21:15-17; Matthew 6:6, etc.

“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. 15 Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place. 16 For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.” 2 Chronicles 7:14-16

Only crucified men are raised up and used of God (2 Corinthians 4:10-12).

The church of Philadelphia were commended by Christ. He said they “hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name” (Revelation 3:8). They kept, stayed strictly with and in His Word and continued to proclaim the name above all names – the name of Jesus!

Real vs Fake “Revival”

If we do see a great outpouring, it won’t be with unholy men such as the recent fake, planned, staged deception some called a “revival” promoted by the Vatican, where sodomites and occult labyrinths are celebrated (Asbury). The LORD judges sin like that. He doesn’t bless it. Where the LORD is truly working, God’s Word will be honored, esteemed, read, preached, communicated (Psalms 138:2). That’s how you will know if it’s “of God” or “NOT of God” (John 8:47). Peter PREACHED the Word on Pentecost and 8k souls were saved (Acts 2, 4). Any questions? The cross of Jesus Christ, His blood, and the cross He mandates that we take up will be preached if it’s a move of God. Phony “praise and worship” and “revival” idols will be slain.

Men, women, and children will seek the LORD in repentance. Souls will repent and be saved. Believers will seek and be baptized in the Holy Ghost as it was on the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2, 4).

The following prophetic word from our LORD doesn’t indicate large crowds gathered in one specific place. And that makes sense – as God spreads His wealth (Matthew 9:35-38; Mark 16:15; Acts 8:4, etc.).

Acts 2
“And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
Act 2:18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
Act 2:19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
Act 2:20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:
Act 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

MESSAGE RECEIVED:

“The word revival, a synonym for it is rebirth. Now to be reborn is in the Bible is it not? Our country needs a serious case of rejuvenation. The Holy Spirit needs to set some folks on fire for Jesus.”

REPLY:

Yes God has not changed, and His arm, His power is not shortened or diminished whatsoever (Malachi 3:6;). Repentance is where revival begins. Read Isaiah 59:1-2…. we are NOT waiting on God – He’s waiting on individuals to repent and obey Him. James 4:8

Those not willing to die are unrepentant, loving their darkness, rather than light, rather than the light of truth given us of God in His Word (Psalms 119:105, 130; John 17:17, etc.). They are unrepentant. You can either die to self now in this temporal world, lay down your life and follow Jesus authentically, OR you will die the “second death” as you are cast into the lake of fire (Revelation 20:11-15).

“He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.” John 3:19-21

One disple writes:

“War makes many rich also. Yet the biblically illiterate support it and offer their children to Molech, believing they do God a service thereby. Just like the unsaved, they honor veterans as much as their apostate pastors.

Revivals are un-scriptural yet are so honored by the masses that few if any test (try) the spirits underlying them to know if they are of God or not. Most are content to look on outward appearance to judge, directly contradicting the command of Jesus Christ, who instructed us to ‘Judge righteous judgment’ (John 7:24).”

Jon Crane writes:

“I hear it all the time and I get chided, as if something is wrong with me for not praying for revival in America. Problem is: what is called the church today is under the impression that Americans as a whole are saved and just need reviving. Probably due to hirelings and wolves subtly preaching replacement theology for a long, long time. The remedy will always be the gospel of the kingdom of God, preached, adhered too, and followed daily. For nothing else saves but the blood of Jesus Christ, nothing else redeems or heals us of the disease of sin.”

The Essential Doctrine of Repentance

The Biblical Statement on the Essential Doctrine and Necessity of Repentance – in Life and in the Dispensing of the Original Gospel Message. Though nearly never heard in today’s apostate modern church world, according to Christ’s unchanging original Gospel, repentance is an absolute necessity. Karen Cochran observes: “It doesn’t seem the word repent is part of the Christian’s vocabulary! In the modern church, it’s all about God accepting you the way you are without any requirements to repent and die to self.” Note that in modern churches, “Christian” radio, media, books, the word “repent” is rarely if ever heard. Yet […]

100% Proof the Asbury Revival is a False Sodomite Delusion [podcast]

“And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.” 1 Kings 18:21 “Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.” Leviticus 18:22 All homosexuality is sin. YOU don’t decide such. WE don’t qualify to decide right and wrong – what is righteousness and what is sin. God did. “Let God be true, and every man a liar.” Romans 3:4 “God said it, I believe it, That settles it!” […]

The Harvest is Coming for all those Sowing the Seed of the Word [podcast]

The Joy and Expectation of Seed Sowing

What we sow, we can expect to reap (Galatians 6:7-8).

As we continue to sow the good, the incorruptible seed of God’s Word into the hearts of men, good news will continue to flow, will continue to be reaped – because God’s Word prospers in the thing where He sends it! See also 1 Peter 1:23.

“So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” Isaiah 55:11

The following song captures the need, the importance, and the urgency of reaching the lost souls around us:

Voices, by the band Harvest

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

Voices in the city, voices in the street.

Voices in each home across the land.

Voices in the churches, saying “Peace, be still.”

Where are all the voices in My fields?

Chorus:

Millions and millions dying.

Millions and millions crying.

Millions and millions don’t know who I am.

Children on the highways

Children on the run.

Mothers in the alley ways,

They’re killing all their sons.

The world is blinded in darkness.

I’ve given them the way.

Where are all My voices to lead them out today?

(Repeat chorus)

Where are the millions who love Me?

Where are the millions who say they know Me?

Where are the millions who’ll stand and follow Me?

Exactly where you are is part of “all the world.”

“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.” Mark 16:15-16

Also, Jesus gives His Gospel as an ultimatum. Is Jesus intending that we bring the hearers of His Gospel to a decision? Seems like it. Read the passage again.

“So today I was driving through our town and saw a guy sitting on his porch reading a Jesus tract! Praise Jesus. I prayed that the words he was reading would be sealed in his heart! They are being left throughout our town. Everyday I put one on top of a newspaper stand. It is always gone next day! Seeds of God’s Word are being planted all over our town and will not return void! Isaiah 55:11. Hallelujah!” Karen Cochran

As Christ’s laborers our duty, getting the seed of our LORD’s Word into the hearts of the people, is of the utmost divine priority.

“The seed is the word of God.” Luke 8:11

Sinners are brought to Jesus, are born again, by way of the incorruptible seed of the Word of God being sown into their hearts.

“Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” 1 Peter 2:23

When His seed is sown, God can bring the increase of conviction, drawing, and salvation (John 12:32; Romans 1:16, etc.).

“I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. 7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. 8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. 9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.” 1 Corinthians 3:6-9

The conversion of the soul to Christ comes by way of the Word of God.

“The law (Word) of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.” Psalm 19:7

What’s the future look like for those who sow, plant God’s Word in the hearts of men?

“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. 6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves (harvest) with him.” Psalms 126:5-6

“Just letting you know I’ve been putting those JESUS tracts in empty gym lockers when I go to the gym and praying that God’s Spirit moves on the hearts of the people that get one! And as you know He can do it! Have a Blessed Day.” Laurie Cox

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 15:58

“1 Corinthians 15: 58. This verse is for all of us who labor for the Lord. We are to be unshakable. Letting nothing move us from the hope of the gospel. We are servants of Christ ever ‘abounding in the work of the Lord.’ Abounding in the furthering of the gospel. Our labor ‘in the Lord’ will be rewarded. Yesterday the Lord gave me a small reward seeing that man sitting on his porch reading the Jesus tract. And since we are laborers together it is a small reward for all of us! We, each member of Christ’s body, the world over, are team Jesus! And He is our eternal reward! We shall be with Him forever in the New Jerusalem!” Karen Cochran

“For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: 12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” Hebrews 6:10-12

YOUR PRAYER: Heavenly Father, You sent Your only begotten Son to rescue, to forgive, to save me. If You can find and save me, You can find and save anyone! Please prepare and use me LORD Jesus. Into Thy holy hands I here and now submit my spirit to Thee dear LORD. I love You Jesus. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

“While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.” Genesis 8:22 Always remember, there must be a seed sown before there can be a crop reaped. BEFORE Jesus saved me, He had several of His people along the way drop His precious Word into my alienated heart. Some of this included the tangible, the printed page. These things all culminated into His saving me into His glorious kingdom (Isaiah 55:11). “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto […]

“The Supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ” [podcast]

Don’t Miss This Blessing!

EVER Seen This Verse? Just Wow! PRAYERS appropriate the divine fuel from Heaven saints!!!! Check out this verse! Please hit SHARE to bless Christ’s body!

Do we even begin to realize the profound and immeasurable potential that lies in the power link of prayer? Jesus Christ is forever at His Father’s right hand making intercession for all of His beloved people (Heb. 7:24-25; 10:19-22).

Okay are you ready for a truth that is going to change your life forever? Read the following Bible verse slowly and for all it’s worth, drinking it in:

“For I know that this shall turn to my salvation (blessings, deliverance, and provision) through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.” Philippians 1:19

Whatever you do today, grab this Bible verse which will then be with you all your days!

In speaking to Christian people he was in fellowship with, this disciple of Jesus – no different than you and I – said that it was “through your prayer” that “the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ” was given to him in his life! Did you catch that?!

How does the LORD bless His people when we pray for them? Is it not by giving them a greater portion and measure of “the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ”?

LIFE CHANGING NUGGET FROM GOD’S WORD

How many of us are thrilled that “the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ” comes upon us by way of, as a result of the prayers of His saints? Wow!

Let’s read it again:

“For I know that this shall turn to my salvation (deliverance, safety, blessings) through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,” Philippians 1:19

Did you realize that the person or people you pray for are given a fresh and greater portion of “the Spirit of Jesus Christ”? According to this insightful truth out of the Holy Spirit inspired pen of the apostle Paul, the Father in Heaven blesses those we lift in prayer with the blessed Person and work of the Holy Spirit. “The spirit of Jesus Christ” is dispensed and poured out into the hearts and lives of those we pray for! This is what Paul told us was happening to him as the saints prayed for him.

Prayerlessness is Sin

Make no mistake, prayerlessness is a sin. Prayerlessness is direct disobedience to the command of God. Prayerlessness is a manifestation of faithlessness. Prayerlessness is the epitome of self-trust and self-dependency. Prayerlessness is the rejection of God in your life – the refusal to trust Him (Matthew 26:41).

“Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Matthew 26:41

YOUR PRAYER LIFE IS A CLEAR MEASURE OF HOW MUCH YOU LOVE GOD-OR NOT. love, to seek, to worship, and to trust Him. No need to seek God in prayer when pride and self-sufficiency reign on the throne of one’s heart.

The power of God working in us will be according to that which comes into us as we pray (Matthew 26:41).

PRAYER: Father in Heaven, in the name of Jesus, please forgive me for taking prayer communion, supplications (humble requests), praying for others, and prayer requests for granted. Forgive me also for the sin of prayerlessness and for not lifting others in prayer more. Thank You LORD for the unspeakable, incredible blessing of prayer. Your perfect sacrificial blood on that cross made our access to the Father possible and speaks for Your people in Heaven right now and forevermore! Jesus, please bless Your people to be faithful to request those things You have revealed in Your Word for each other! Thank You Father for pouring out Your Holy Spirit upon Your people afresh this hour and also every time we lift each other to You in prayer! Thank You right now for the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ being poured out on Your beloved people. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

His Grace is Sufficient for Thee [podcast]

“WHEN HE HAD BY HIMSELF purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.” Hebrews 1:3 ALL “BY HIMSELF” Jesus redeemed us, bought, brought us back to God by the shedding of His precious blood on that cross. Jesus needed no help: He alone was sufficient to propitiate, expiate, atone for the sins of mankind. The grace of Christ which saved us through His perfect sacrifice is the same and only grace that keeps us and enables His perfect will in our lives! Here’s how that works in His kingdom economy: He who died, was buried, and […]

The Riches of His Grace

“In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;” Ephesians 1:7 It’s been said that “God bankrupted Heaven to buy us back to Himself!” “Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.” 2 Corinthians 9:15 Jesus judged sin on the cross so we don’t have to be judged for our sin and so we can experience “the exceeding riches of his gracE” both now and forever (John 12:31-32; Ephesians 1:7; 2:7). The claims of the Father’s justification to redeem mankind could only and exclusively have been satisfied in the perfect […]

The Good Shepherd and His True Sheep [podcast]

“Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant …” Hebrews 13:20

“To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.” John 10:3

“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.” John 10:27-29

“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. 9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.

10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, 11 persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me. 12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. 13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.” 2 Timothy 3:1-13

“And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. 24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it. 25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?” Luke 9:23-25

“My Sheep Hear My Voice, and I Know them, and they Follow Me" [podcast]

There are 7 portraits of Jesus in the Gospel of John. One of those seven portraits is Jesus our “the good shepherd.” (John 10) The first thing the good shepherd of the sheep did was give His life to purchase the sheep with His own blood. “I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.” John 10:11 Jesus who created us, then came to die to buy up back to the Father and Himself. The Bible, God’s Word, is full of illustrations of who God is, and who He is to us. He is our […]

Jesus Christ is “that great shepherd of the sheep” (Hebrews 13:20). He instructed us to follow Him and, in doing so, to “FEED my sheep” (John 21:15-17). Tending to the sheep of Christ’s pasture involves nourishing […]
