“You used to live in sin, just like the rest of the world, obeying the devil—the commander of the powers in the unseen world. He is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God. All of us used to live that way, following the passionate desires and inclinations of our sinful nature. By our very nature we were subject to God’s anger, just like everyone else.” Ephesians 2:2-3 Have you seen or met anyone fitting this description lately? People who refuse to obey God? Those who obey the devil? Ones who so easily give in to whatever feels good or makes them happy, no matter how evil it may be? Have you seen decline in society? I've heard many ask "what is happening to this world?" Remember that you used to be a part of the problem with this world! We were all once completely lost in sin and obeying the devil, before Jesus saved us. Thank God we are now the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus (1 Cor 5:17) and not disgusting, vile sinners any longer.
As I’ve been praying about 2021 and I asked the Lord to tell me “What do YOU want to do, Lord?” I keep hearing him say, as well as sensing in my spirit, that Revival is coming and it is time for the people of God to get to WORK! You see, revival is not just a bunch of people getting saved. It’s a bunch of people being raised from the dead and re-created in Christ into new beings. “We are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.” Eph 2:10 When those devil obeying, weak-kneed people we were talking about earlier get saved, they are re-created into beautiful, righteous, children of God. Then, by the power of Jesus Christ, they are set free from sexual sins, hate, murder, substance abuse, and all sorts of other sins. They are created anew! Revival is people believing in Jesus in large numbers, and as a result, the evil and injustices in our society begin to disappear. Every great revival throughout history has been marked by great societal impact. Social assistance ministries were started. Women and minorities were given opportunities that they didn’t have before. Laws that honored God were enacted. Education was made available to all. Missionaries were sent to previously unreached areas.

 During this month of Thanksgiving will you join us in praising and thanking God for the breakthrough of revival to come? by Sarah LeonardWhen you have God on your side, the moment when there seems to be no hope left is really just the beginning of something beautiful. Have you ever...
"... As we were leaving, one of the ladies patted me on the shoulder. It took me a minute to process what she was saying because three ladies were all speaking Spanish to me at once. When my brain caught up to their words, I realized they were pointing emphatically at a little old lady in a wheelchair who was smiling from ear to ear. I had prayed for her physical health earlier as the Holy Spirit had directed me..."

We are going to preach the gospel in Mexico! We have been invited to go to Vera Cruz state (south-east of Mexico City) and hold evangelism crusades next month. We will be visiting three small villages in this state and preaching the good news of Jesus for two or three days in each village. We are praying that the people are receptive to the gospel. We are praying for thousands of souls believing on Jesus. We are praying for signs wonders and miracles to happen everywhere we go. We are praying for divine appointment meetings with those who need to hear the gospel and with those who will be future ministry partners. We are praying for 2 Corinthians 9:8 resources. "God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others." |
