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 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

“He that Loveth Pureness of Heart” [podcast]


IS YOUR HEART PURE BEFORE THE ALMIGHTY BELOVED?

DO I truly love “pureness of heart”?

“HE THAT LOVETH PURENESS OF HEART, for the grace of his lips the king shall be his friend.” Proverbs 22:11

Without a pure heart, obtained from seeking, worshiping, knowing, and obey God …. no one “shall see God.” Not one.

“Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.” Matthew 5:8

If you or I have every word of the Bible memorized and die today with a heart that is defiled with sin, we’d bust hell wide open – and be trapped there irrevocably forever.

TODAY is our day, it’s your day, to throw up those hands and that heart to the LORD who made you, and cry out to Him to grant you a pure heart, one that is innocent, clean, washed, delighting in Him.

“Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.” Psalms 37:4

When the LORD is truly working in a man, that man is learning to love “pureness of heart.”

He that loveth pureness of heart, for the grace of his lips the king shall be his friend.” Proverbs 22:11

Coming and continuing to come to the light is essential to final salvation.

“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

Choosing the Fear of the LORD

WE must surround ourselves with the Word, the people, the praises of our God! FLOOD your ear and eye gates beloved (Proverbs 4:23). Jesus is coming.

“But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.” John 3:21

Coming clean: To be sanctified by Christ, one must repent and believe upon Him. As the LORD works in them, there will be the response of honesty, humble repentance and a coming to the light, continually. If not, judgment will be incurred (Isaiah 1:19-20).

“He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.” Proverbs 28:13

Those who cover instead of bring their depraved hearts into the light to have them changed and cleansed by the LORD, “shall not prosper.” In other words, they are stifled. Those who remain humble, teachable, correctable, rebukeable, and obedient, will receive divine mercy perpetually.

“God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.” Psalms 55:19 

Those who refuse to “choose the fear of the LORD” have no changes in their lives.

“For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:” Proverbs 1:29

Psalms 73

“Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand. 24  Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. 25  Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee. 26  My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever. 27  For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee. 28  But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.” Psalms 73:23-28 

Drawing Nigh (close) to God Afresh

“But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 7  Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8  Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. 9  Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. 10  Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.” James 4:6-10

The Death before the Death [podcast]


Gethsemane Preceded Calvary

“And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, 42  Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. 43  And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him. 44  And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.” Luke 22:42-44

“He must increase, but I must decrease.” John 3:30

“Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 11  For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. 12  So then death worketh in us, but life in you.” 2 Corinthians 4:10-12

“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

Shall We Freshly Declare the Cross to be Front and Center in our Personal Lives?

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20
