Revival is not the working of miracles; it is an increased spiritual interest or renewal of a life of holiness, in complete obedience to...

 🎊♨️ OPEN HEAVENS ♨️🎊           DAILY DEVOTIONAL DATE: FRIDAY 23RD JULY 2021 THEME: WHEN REVIVAL COMES I.    MEMORISE: Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee? Psalm 85:6 BIBLE READING: PSALM 85:4-7 4 Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to cease. 5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations? 6 Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee? 7 Shew us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation. MESSAGE: In Christianity, revival generally refers to increased spiritual fervency or renewal in the congregation of believers. What happens when revival comes? According to our Bible reading of today, people turn away from their wickedness when revival comes. Salvation becomes a household commodity and the anger of God ceases to burn against people. One pleasant thing about God concerning sinners is that He would always warn them of t...

MESSAGE: Apostle Paul tells us in the Bible reading of today that he would not want us to be ignorant of the truth concerning our calling as Christians and workers in the vineyard.

I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. MESSAGE: Everybody desires new things. As we expect new things to come our way, the Almighty God shall give them to us this season in Jesus’ name. God says He will do a new thing (Isaiah 43:19). To whom is He making this promise? To His people, of course. This leads all those who are expecting a new thing this season to ask themselves some fundamental questions: Am I a child of God? Does God know me? Am I among His elect? Am I...
