Run to Jesus for Refuge

Run to Jesus for Refuge What does it look like to run to Jesus ...

What does it look like to run to Jesus for refuge? Brother Bevington, a 20th-century American evangelist, cut it straight. "Get right with God! Get on your knees and cry out loud for mercy!"

Bevington issued these directions not to unbelievers, but to church members in good standing. The resulting meeting continued for over eight days. Bevington preached only a little. And when he did, he focused on the judgment and the wrath of God. He spent his days offsite, wrestling with God in prayer for the salvation and sanctification of these people. As a result, hundreds were in soul agony--sometimes for less than an hour, and sometimes for days. They confessed their sins out loud, wept, and cried to God for mercy until they finally got through and knew they were right with God.

One woman replied, "You're just making fools out of all of us. Our pastor said that I'm saved." Bevington cut her no slack. "Cry out loud for mercy, or you may be in hell in twenty minutes!" The woman began to pray, and forty minutes later "struck fire." She not only got right with God, but preached powerfully in the meeting.

This account is just one example of the Biblical, old-time revival that we're praying for and promoting at the National Prayer Chapel. And this is the kind of revival that America needs, if she is to save herself from destruction.

Will you begin a path of personal revival today by confessing and forsaking your sins out loud? And persisting until you know that you're right with God?

Soldiering On

Soldiering On Is your church soldiering on without th... Is your church soldiering on without the Holy Spirit, perhaps while praying for revival? This will never produce revival. We must take the position, "Either the Holy Spirit comes, or the church closes. And it's over." How do you know if you're soldiering on? When your church stops confession and repentance. Instead, the church fills up broken cisterns with washed up doctrine, programs and Bible studies, casualness, and happy praise and worship. As a result, the church makes no impact on the culture. Christians remain carnal and unsanctified, and the lost unsaved. This isn't God's heart for the church. Before, the church had revivals. Refreshings of the Holy Spirit brought general change to entire cities and nations. Criminal activities stopped, bars closed, broken families made peace, and people paid back old debts. But, the modern church is so used to soldiering on that we don't even...

The Terrifying Work of Demons

The Terrifying Work of Demons https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDqcrA... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDqcrAuPfYA Pastor Ray delves into the spirit world to uncover the terrifying work of demons. We must know and engage in this battle and trust Jesus to fully deliver us. He uses the story of the demoniac in Mark Chapter 5 to uncover the enemy's game plan for you and me. Have you been set free by the blood of Jesus, or are you still enslaved? The battle belongs to the Lord, but we must engage ourselves in this battle through confession, repentance and trust in Jesus. The heart of Jesus is victory against every demonic power that would come against you. https://www.nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=41536&feed_id=1015
