Revival NOW Church?

The Crown Is Before You https://youtu.be/gbs6Qvs-E4o Our s... https://youtu.be/gbs6Qvs-E4o Our series on the Parable of the Sower continues today with the focus on the choking Christian. He also read a good part of the Chapter 7 ( On Trial for the Gospel ) from the book Pilgrim's Progress , which is about Vanity Fair. Have you decided to give everything up and into the control of Jesus and everything you have and your life is now focused upon His will? Or are you a foolish man or woman who has built your house on the sand? Will you put the words of Jesus into practice? What will you do with Jesus? https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=39122&feed_id=5194

Is Jesus a Wall or a Door? https://youtu.be/Nb63CbLV_qw Pasto... https://youtu.be/Nb63CbLV_qw Pastor Ray asks the critical question is whether Jesus a wall or a door to you? J esus is always a wall at first until we're willing to fully submit and humble our hearts to Him. We must make a conscious choice to fully fix our thoughts on Jesus in this process or we can foolishly choice to light our own fires. Jesus is interested in the minute details of our lives and He wants to transform us from the inside out. Make a determine to fully fix your thoughts on Jesus! https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=3923&feed_id=5184

The Full Armour of God - 2009 Pastor Ray walks us through the "full a... Pastor Ray walks us through the "full armor of God" laid in Ephesians 6 from this older sermon. There must be a recognition of the battle and we must be actively engage in the battle if we are to be overcomers. Be blessed as you listen! https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=10794&feed_id=5182

Binding the Strong Man https://youtu.be/NyCoZhmMCH0 On to... https://youtu.be/NyCoZhmMCH0 On today's broadcast, Pastor Ray  details Chapter 9 from the book " Rees Howell: Intercessor " . The work of the Spirit is done in intercession, so listen to this closely, as all Christians are called to be intercessors. https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=4023&feed_id=5142

Finding the Grace to Die (Part 1) by Jackie Pullinger This is a wonderful mini-series from ma... This is a wonderful mini-series from many years ago by Jackie Pullinger, a missionary to Hong Kong for many years. You can support her work by going to her website: http://www.ststephenssociety.com/ . Part 1 is a combination of testimonies, words of knowledge and the introductory part of the message. https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=11123&feed_id=5086

Where Satan Has His Throne https://youtu.be/Mv1--s3InQA Today... https://youtu.be/Mv1--s3InQA Today's powerful message is from the message to the church of Pergamos, which is chalked full of messages to the modern church. It's a church that thought it could walk in the darkness and the light at the same time. Are you like Antipas or Balaam? Antipas died a martyr of Jesus and Balaam died as a betrayer of Jesus, it's time to choose... Will you be fully given to Jesus, in reality? https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=30589&feed_id=5066

I Will Not Be Mine https://youtu.be/9M3u4EU4JFQ Today... https://youtu.be/9M3u4EU4JFQ Today is a more in-depth study from Thursday's broadcast. The scripture text is lengthy but Pastor Ray reads from Dr Lavender's New Testament. Here are verses 17 & 18 from Ephesians 4:  Now this I say, and declare in the Lord: you are to no longer to walk as the other Gentiles walk, in the nonsense of their mind, having been darkened in the understanding, being alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance existing in them, because of the hardness of their hearts. He talks about the four key doctrines of Gerhard Tersteegen and many churches in the late 17th century.  Make that choice to allow Jesus to go all the way to the bottom in your heart. https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=3907&feed_id=5040

True or False Religion - (2012) What does true religion look like compa... What does true religion look like compared to the false? Does your heart cry out for an authentic walk with Jesus? If that's your heart, today's broadcast will prove to be an encouragement to your soul. If you're unwilling to be honest, the underbelly of the character "Talkative" will be uncovered and the broadcast may be painful for you. We begin on page 113. What is pure religion before a Holy God or are you just a consumer, who talks a lot but whose life is inconsistent with what they say? True faith always bears fruit. There's a BIG difference between saying and doing. Are you just a talker? https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=36299&feed_id=4995

Disappointed by Jesus? (May 20, 2007) Pastor Ray talks about how the disciple... Pastor Ray talks about how the disciples were utterly disappointed by Jesus as His crucifixion became readily apparent and their hopes of an earthly kingdom were utterly destroyed. His disciples had many false expectations. In our culture, we've depicted Jesus as  a "cotton-candy Jesus," (i.e. a benevolent father-figure who only cares about meeting our needs and expectations) which has created many false expectations that we must face as we are crucified with Christ.  As the disciples made it all about themselves and who would be the greatest among themselves, surely we've done the same thing, to a much greater extent. The real issue in the sermon is not whether or not you will be disappointed by Jesus, you certainly will be to some degree (due to all of the lies that permeate the modern American church) but the question is whether you will entrust (or intrust) yourself into the ...

Preparation for Revival (Part 2) (April 17, 2005) If you're serious about following Jesus... If you're serious about following Jesus and you're seeking a revival in your heart, this is an absolute must listen. The work of revival is always first a work of reformation, through the power of the blood of Jesus. I would offer an alternative title " Jesus prayer for revival. " If you are an earnest follower of Jesus, he has laid out His path for revival for you. Listen to the exposition of the prayer of Jesus in John 17 and allow Him to bring revival power to your heart, your family and those around you. https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=3799&feed_id=4939

The Suffering of Leaving Our Sin https://youtu.be/xse5zaqBQfw Today... https://youtu.be/xse5zaqBQfw Today's broadcast is the third one in the series on an exposition of Hebrews verse by verse. Listen to the message with an open heart and mind and let the Holy Spirit speak to you. The walk with Jesus is NOT about self-improvement or trying harder, it's simply is being crucified with Jesus and fully given to Him, where everything in our lives is under the Lordship of Jesus. Have you believed the lie that death is your savior and that you past, present and future sins are covered? https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=3917&feed_id=4876

The Deep Truth about Revival (November 4, 2004) Using 2 Chronicles 7:14, Pastor Ray ela... Using 2 Chronicles 7:14, Pastor Ray elaborates on what it means to humble our hearts before God. What a wonderful yet painful place to be where only Jesus can rescue you and me. I pray that you will receive the message with a heart to serve Jesus. (if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.) https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=3827&feed_id=4772

Are You Dying in Doubting Castle? https://youtu.be/fBwj7roEtqE In Bu... https://youtu.be/fBwj7roEtqE In Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, Christian and Hopeful leave the path to the Celestial City and end up in Giant Despair's Doubting Castle. When humanism, self-help, waiting, and chance fail, the brothers finally cry out to God. "What a fool I've been!" Christian exclaims, realizing that a key of promise, that will open every door in Doubting Castle, has remained untouched in his bosom. Does this describe your life? Have you been sitting around in a dungeon of misery, worry, and despair while the Bible with its promises gathers dust on your shelf? Beloved, wake up! Repent, stand on the promises, and watch Jesus supernaturally deliver you! https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=4139&feed_id=4713

Unresolved Charges in Heaven? https://youtu.be/n40ZX634Ba0 Somet... https://youtu.be/n40ZX634Ba0 Sometimes, we can get let time and love gloss over unresolved conflicts with others. But when it comes to our crimes against God, the courts of heaven will not let anything slide. God allows suffering to come into our lives as corrective discipline to turn our hearts back to Him. But if we rail against this discipline with grumbling or anger, we prove our disloyalty to God, break His heart, and push him closer to an eternal divorce.  The scriptures teach that God hates divorce, but know that Jesus requires  entire consecration. Does it crush you that God is lamenting over you? https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=5381&feed_id=4709

By the Grace of God, I'm Not Going Back God is not interested in a superficial ... God is not interested in a superficial work in our hearts, he must take each of us all the way to the bottom. In this very special sermon, Pastor Ray lays out   four simple doctrines from a dear group of Christians from the 17th century that are key to revival followed by four specific behaviors that block this work. By the grace of God, we are trusting that Jesus will get the victory in our hearts as we simply trust Him with all of our hearts. May Jesus bring each one of us through to complete victory, amidst the tears and brokenness that will flow as He takes us to the bottom. Amen!  (Note: We used some different software to record the sermon with mixed results, please pray for wisdom for us, as we seek to obey what Jesus asks us to do.) https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=3906&feed_id=4629

The Storm Is Upon Us https://youtu.be/LYbOULrseN4 Our f... https://youtu.be/LYbOULrseN4 Our fourth message from the book of Revelations this week is critically important. Pastor Ray lays out the timeline that he believes is reflected in the scriptures. We are going to quickly see additional things come to pass now very quickly. The critical thing is not whether Pastor Ray is exactly correct or not but whether you and I are ready to face Jesus in the very difficult days that lie directly before us. Is your life and all that you are fully submitted to Jesus? That's the question you should ask yourself as you listen today. If not, it's time to get right with Jesus right now dear one... https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=35731&feed_id=4548

The Powers Of Darkness Are On The Move https://youtu.be/j7FcvG2y5Uk Do yo... https://youtu.be/j7FcvG2y5Uk Do you love the truth? His name is Jesus Christ. Thank you for all who called in today to praise and honor our mighty King Jesus! Please give us to lay down all lies, especially our personal lies! Give us the courage to stand against the wickedness of our age! Do you have your seatbelt on, trusting Him to lead guide and direct your steps? https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=35747&feed_id=4436

Don't Give Up On The Holy Spirit! https://www.youtube.com/embed/XYAa-zex... https://www.youtube.com/embed/XYAa-zexbg8 All of us are being called to a much deeper intimacy with Jesus, that has largely gone unsatisfied. Listen closely to Pastor Ray read through and talk about John Chapter 14. Is the desire of your heart to be enveloped by the Holy Spirit? Be encouraged to listen and grab ahold of today's message, although that will ultimately mean persecution, in the midst of incredible intimacy with Jesus. Jesus is worth it dear one! https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=42961&feed_id=4334

The Great Controversy https://youtu.be/HOUGq6qvKHQ Today... https://youtu.be/HOUGq6qvKHQ Today's study of Exodus continues, as Pastor Ray lays out this great controversy between the kingdom of darkness and the Kingdom of Light! Are you actively engaged in this battle, not just for your soul, but for the soul of others? Today's focus is upon the first plagues that came upon both the Egyptians and the children of Israel. https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=11271&feed_id=4301

Are You an Overcomer? https://youtu.be/PVUxxPhNO3o The r... https://youtu.be/PVUxxPhNO3o The risen Christ's second admonition to the church at Laodicea is to buy "white garments." Like Adam and Eve, those in the church were naked because of their sin--unlike Adam and Eve, they didn't realize it. We receive these garments by faith from Jesus when we completely consecrate ourselves to him and remain consecrated. The finished work of holiness is not an absolute perfection, but a moral perfection from which we can fall.  Do not trust in a past experience. Are you overcoming in Jesus, right now? https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=4178&feed_id=4295
