Word of the Day: Revival begins like this...

On the day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit descended on Jesus' disciples, there was a great revival. It began with prayer. That's how every revival begins, God's people praying and calling out to God asking for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

Revival is not necessarily immediate, it may take days, weeks, or even years, but when we pray and don't give up, God listens to us and brings revival. And in moments of waiting and persistence, God is not idle - he is at work shaping our character and preparing the ground for a revival that will extend beyond us and will impact our communities and nations.

2"Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting."
[...]

16 No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:

17 "In the last days, God says,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your young men will see visions,
your old men will dream dreams.
18 Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days,
and they will prophesy."
[...]
21 "And everyone who calls
on the name of the Lord will be saved."
Acts 2:2, 16-18, 21

Do you pray for revival?

We should be praying continually (1 Thessalonians 5:17). This is the recommendation of the Apostle Paul in the Bible because he knew the power of prayer. In his life, he also experienced the power of revival. Seek the Lord daily through prayer and Bible reading, and you will see wonderful things happen in your life!

Pray earnestly, stay rooted in the Word, and anticipate the wondrous things that God will unfold in response to the cries of His people.

28 “And afterward,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your old men will dream dreams,
your young men will see visions.
29 Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
- Joel 2:28-29

Seek revival and experience God's transforming power!

Jeremiah 29:11 speaks to us about the plans God has for each of us. He assures us that God knows us deeply and has special plans for our lives. These plans are full of hope, prosperity, and a bright future.

Word of the Day: An invitation and A Challenge

God extends an invitation and a challenge to all who love Him.

The Invitation

Come and learn more about the love of God! God loves you so much and he desires to have a deeper relationship with you, one where he will bless you abundantly.

May the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance.

2 Thessalonians 3:5

9 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love.

12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.

John 15:9-10,12

So how does God love us? How does it feel to be loved by God?

There are five features of God's love that we can experience from him today:

  1. It is unconditional: God's love is not based on what we do or how we behave; it is given to everyone regardless of their worthiness or behavior.

  2. It is selfless: God's love is sacrificial and self-giving, evident in the death of Jesus. It seeks the well-being of others, at great personal cost.

  3. It is Eternal: God's love will never end. It does not diminish or fluctuate based on what we do or say but remains constant throughout all times and circumstances.

  4. It is inclusive: God's love is a gift for all people, without discrimination or exclusion. He offers it to every individual, regardless of their race, sex, ethnicity, nationality, or background.

  5. It is redemptive: God's love has the ultimate goal of reconciling humanity to Himself. This is the foundation of God's plan; to save the world through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The Challenge

And this is the challenge: it's time to be fruitful! God wants to help you mature and be transformed so that you bear much fruit. The goal of this is to glorify God. By living in a relationship with Christ and producing spiritual fruit, we can show how much we love God, through bringing him all the honor and praise.

5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.

John 15:5-8

But it is a challenge, there is a warning in this passage, and the consequence of leaving Jesus' side is that we become outcasts.

Do you accept the invitation and the challenge?

Follow Christ's direction, and meet with Him right now!

God has come to give us messages of hope
