When Revival Comes

praise God thank you brother Williams praise the Lord everyone the Lord what a beautiful presence of the Lord there is in this place today and in this very moment the last while the presence of God has surely filled this place and I just feel more like praying and worshiping the Lord than I do anything I think a lot of you feel the same way we want God to touch us I have been touched in this conference I have been blessed the preaching has been outstanding I appreciate every message that I have heard it's truly been a blessing to me personally and I came to receive not just to not just to preach or give out but I came to receive and I have received and I appreciate the messages I've heard and I'll go home a better person because of what I've heard amen it's good to be with brother and sister Mangan brother and sister Anthony manangan we appreciate and love them and through the years have loved and appreciated them and their Evangelistic fervor and getting the work of the Lord done and this church of course has been a real has been a real Landmark for the cause of Revival and evangelism and I appreciate the opportunity to be here today I've had the privilege to preach in the local church here in the past but it's just a joy to to be here today and with all these fine speakers appreciate brother tenny's message it was truly tremendous and I asked him last night of this morning one wonder what who was mad at me to put me right between him and Brother David Fuller two of the finest preachers and the sharpest Minds I've ever heard somebody somebody put me right between them but anyhow I'll do my best God bless you let's open our hearts to the word of the Lord for a few minutes amen the book of habc chapter number three and verse number two rebec chapter number three and verse number two oh Lord I have heard thy speech and was afraid oh Lord revive thy Work in the midst of the years in the midst of the years make known in Wrath remember mercy and then I'd like you to notice in Psalms chapter 85 and verse 6 85 and 6 of The Book of Psalm wilt thou not revive us again that thy people may rejoice in thee first scripture that I have read to you this afternoon says oh Lord revive thy Work in the midst of the years in Wrath remember mercy and then in Psalm David said wilt thou not revive us again that thy people may rejoice in thee praise God I would like to preach for the next few moments the subject that I feel a few weeks back in prayer one night we were having a all night prayer meeting at the church and I was there laid and praying and I felt this the general theme and the words that the felt it was of the Lord and I want to deliver it to you this afternoon there's three words that I'll use for my text today simply this when Revival comes when Revival comes and I'd like brother Anthony to come and pray and let's pray together now that the spirit for standing and you may be seated God bless you I realize in the beginning of this message this afternoon that I am preaching in a Revival church I am preaching in a church that for 40 years has had Revival and has been the epitome of success when it comes to Revival and evangelism and a move of the spirit and getting the work of the Lord

done I do believe today with all of my heart that Revival is the heartbeat of God that's right I do believe that Revival is the heartbeat of the church I think there's a difference in Revival and evangelism that's right I think that Revival has to be born in the hearts of God's people beginning with the preacher that's right and a church will never be able to rise above the pulpit and if a preacher doesn't have Revival in his heart then the church will never have Revival if there is no Revival in the Pulpit there will be no Revival in the Pew consequently the work of God will be stifled in that particular place and evangelism will in effect die and the work of the Lord will not go forth as God intended for it to go forth praise God Bible is the heartbeat of the church I do not want to and do not intend to be negative because I'm not a negative preacher I I like good positive preaching but I I want to say this afternoon something that I think that I need to say less than 10% of all the United Pentecostal churches are having sustained growth less than 10% and that is a proven fact are having sustained growth we do have our times of increase and we do have our times of of flourishing but not a large number of our churches throughout our constituency are having consistent ondoing sustained growth praise God and I do believe that God wants to send our generation and now here we are in the decade of the 90s and I believe that God wants to send our generation a mighty move of the spirit that is absolutely and literally unprecedented in the course of the church dispensation of time praise God the average Sunday school in the United Pentecostal Church is somewhere around 75 that's the average throughout the entire constituency and throughout the entire fellowship and we're in a great church today A beautiful church A Large Church a church that is having constant Revival in a move of of the spirit but the fact is that most of us are not seeing the move of the spirit and the Revival in the major that you're seeing in Alexandria however I do believe that God is wanting to do something in us I do believe that God is wanting to Quicken something within us and I do believe that God will send a Revival anywhere maybe I'm naive today maybe I'm a little naive but if I am you forgive me but I believe that God wants and Revival everywhere everywhere everywhere in every city and every state and every County every village every Hamlet every parish as you have it here I believe that God wants to send a a mighty move of the spirit like we have never seen I cannot subscribe to the idea are the theory that here we are now living in the end time and so many mon Monumental changes Es are taking place it's already been mentioned in this meeting things that are literally blowing our minds I don't believe that God has brought the church to this occasion and to this hour to just somehow go downhill and fizzle out lose its empath this and lose its power I I just don't believe that for a moment I believe that God is raising up a group of preachers and ministers Saints of God all over this nation and around the world if you please that are hungry for a move of the spirit and they're not going to be satisfied with anything less than the best that God has for hallelujah hallelujah you know we talk about Revival a lot of times and I've been in places where they say it's coming just wait it's coming and it's on the way and it's almost here and it's just around the corner and everybody just just hold on now and and it's going to get here before long be careful because it's it's about to hit us and some people sitting in the Pew are beginning to wonder what it is that we're looking for when it is that is coming amen I I do believe that this is the hour let me say that right now I believe this is the hour I don't think we've going to we're going to wait till next year I I believe that whatever we

do for God we must do quickly and do it now now today is the day of salvation today is the day of Revival today is the day for signs and wonders and miracles today is the day for an Apostolic power to be manifested in the church it's not tomorrow it's today it's not next year it's 1990 Hallelujah and while we're talking about Revival is is coming and it's on the way it's just around the corner at the same time many churches birds are building their nest on the Altar and cobwebs are in the bster there's little anticipation or hope of a move of God and many are satisfied with status quo I don't intend to be mean or ugly today but any preacher any preacher that is satisfied in his church with status quo I just say that he ought to resign and get out of the pull pit and let somebody go there that's hungry for a move of God hallelujah hallelujah it's too late in the game the hour is too late for our pits to be filled with preachers that are not seeking after God they're not hungry for God they're not anxious for the move of his Spirit but they their interests are in other things I'm going to tell you today church it's time for our entire being to become wrapped up in the greatest on the face of the Earth and that's the cause of the kingdom of Jesus Christ and oh God help us I believe God is ready to open up the windows of heaven and he's ready to pour out his Spirit if we're ready to receive it God is ready to give it hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah if we're ready to receive it God's ready to give it if we're ready to position ourselves in the place that the Holy Spirit wants us God is ready to do an unprecedented and a glorious work in his church thank God for Years Gone by and I Revere and respect our elders that are on this platform today very deeply and they saw a mighty move of God in years going by but I'm just here as just a little voice to tell you that God's not through God's not through the game's not over they may be in the ninth inning but the game's not over bless God it's time for Revival now it's time for the power of God now it's time for a move of the spirit now it's time for the miraculous now it's time for the supernatural now and somebody here is hungry for it glory to God glory to God we'll never receive anything until we desire it we'll never receive anything until we want it amen we've got to have that strong spiritual incentive and that strong desire blessed are they that do hunger and thirst after righteousness for they shall be filled they shall be filled Hallelujah and Revival is a time of refreshing it's a time of renewal it's a time of recommitment it's a time of re-examination of our lives and our values it's a time for the church to fall in its face before God and beseech the god of Heaven until he pour out his Spirit upon us hallelujah to God and I believe that this is the hour that it's going to happen and and brother Anthony Manel we're not going to just come here and hear this kind of preaching and feel what we're feeling in the Holy Ghost and then go home and and set it on the Shelf somewhere I believe there's hundreds of people in this congregation that's going to get a hold of this and you're going to take it with you and we're going to have a move of God hallelujah one of the greatest dangers of coming to this meeting would be to hear what we've heard and to feel what we felt and to know what we've known and experience what we've experienced brother kilgor and then go home and and set it aside and forget it it's like a man that looks in the glass and walks away and straight way forget us what manner of man he is hallelujah I don't want to go home and forget it but I want to go home and find an altar somewhere I want to go home and find a place to pray I don't want my praying to stop stop here I don't want my worship to stop here I don't want my love for Jesus to

stop here but I want to take it with me Hallelujah do you feel it today Pentecostals let's take what we've got in this Auditorium let's take it home with us and God will give us Revival in every city in every city hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah yeah now when Revival comes there are some things that it will do and there is an atmosphere that it will create in a local assembly I like to be in a Revival church it's just got a good feel about it amen when these preachers stand in the pull pit they can all tell you when they're in a Revival Church there's just something good about the feel of it amen and when Revival comes the let me tell you that number one it is going to create a climate and an atmosphere of praise and worship to God you will never see Revival in a dead Church you will never see Revival in a comfortable Church Hallelujah and I believe the holy spirit is probing and pting and digging digging us up if you please to make us uncomfortable Hallelujah I don't want to be comfortable today I want the spirit of God to get a hold of me and shake me like I've never been shaken oh hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah not very many people find God in a dead church not very many people pray through in the altars of a dead church amen there are some people who say you Pentecostals clap your hands too much and and you lift your hands too much I don't think we do I don't think we do I think this is the key praise and worship is the key in the 28 years that I have had the opportunity to Pastor a church I believe that praise and worship is the key that brings about and produces a climate and an atmosphere of Revival you're not going to have a Revival brother arold unless there is praise and worship to God in that congregation we cannot stifle it we to let it flow Hallelujah some say don't do it but the Bible still says clap your hands the Bible still says lift your hands the Bible still talks about shouting the Bible still speaks of Leaping for Joy the Bible still talks about these things that are important to us and I hope that it's Pentecostals that we never see the day come when hand clapping is stopped and and lifting our hands has stopped and shouting is stopped and and tongue talking is stopped and running the a is stopped and and we just go through our motions of ritualistic Pentecostalism I hope we never see that day bless God it may seem Antiquated out of date out of style call it what you want to but I still believe the thing that's going to bring Revival is praise and worship praise and worship hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah oh you may be seated there's some that say well if you praise too much or worship too much you're going to run folks off folks won't like it I'm going to tell you friend that real praise and worship to the Lord is going to bring a whole lot more people in than it ever runs off this is a hungry World we're living in and I'm convinced of that somebody said oh just about everybody saved that's going to be saved we've got to just try to hang on and hold on you can forget that philosophy that is not of God our problem all time is between our own ears right up here is where our problem is brother let me tell you that to those that believe all things are possible but to those that do not believe they'll never see a manifestation of the power of God hallelujah amen thank God thank God I say let's keep shouting let's keep on running the AIS let's keep worshiping God some while back we we got a doctor that came in our came into our church and I baptized him he got the Holy Ghost and and I noticed that he was bringing visitors on Sunday night and in our

church I don't know how it is in yours but on Sunday morning it's not hardly as as Lively as it is on Sunday night I don't know why that is our our folks don't get woke up good I guess on Sunday morning and and it's it's Sunday night before Pentecostals get good and and loose but they'll get loose Sunday night now you can count on that but now he he was bringing the visitors on Sunday night and I said Doctor I said why don't you start bringing and them on Sunday morning I was going to kind of just you know break them in easy and he looked at me with a puzzled expression he'd never been in Pentecost his life till he came and received the Holy Ghost there and he said but Pastor he said Sunday mornings are a little too quiet he said I want him to be here when they can feel God oh Hallelujah I'm telling you Church there's a hungry world out there let's don't put a land on this let's don't stifle this let's Let It Go praise and worship brings Revival Hallelujah I said praise and worship brings Revival oh hallelujah oh Hallelujah I was reading yesterday in the 146 Psalm and it starts off praising the Lord it is Praise You the Lord 147 starts off praise you the Lord it ends praise ye the Lord 148 praise ye the Lord it ends Praise You the Lord 149 starts off praise the Lord ends praise the Lord 150 says praise the Lord it ends praise the Lord I begin to get the message amen I said I begin to get the message God's looking for people that's going to praise him and lift up his name Glory Glory Glory I said God's looking for people that's not intimidated by the devil are by the world are bound by peer pressure it's time for the church to begin to praise the Lord hallelujah hallelujah somebody shout hallelujah hallelujah so when Revival comes to a church it's going to create there a climate of praise and worship to the Lord Jesus Christ another thing that's going to happen when Revival comes there's going to be an unprecedented Spirit of evangelism that's going to hit that congregation I said there's going to be an unprecedented Spirit of evangelism when you get enough of the Holy Ghost you're going to want to go you're going to want to go tell it you're going to want to you're going to want to share what you've got I said when you get full of the Holy Ghost you're going to want to go Acts 1:8 said you'll receive power after that the Holy Ghost has come upon you and you shall be witnesses to me both in Jerusalem Judea Samaria and into the uttermost part of the earth Hallelujah that early church went everywhere preaching Jesus Christ and there were signs and wonders and miracles that was the result of their love for God and their preaching of the Gospel Hallelujah when a church gets full enough of of of the power of God and and and and Revival fires are beginning to burn on the altars of our hearts then evangelism is going to be the result evangelism is going to be the offsuit of it God didn't give me the Holy Ghost just to sit on my favorite Pew God didn't give me the Holy Ghost to put my name on a Pew and say this is mine I want you to know that God gave me the Holy Ghost to go out and tell it to somebody else and to go share it with someone else hallelujah hallelujah well somebody say praise the Lord prise the Lord I think God pull my coat amen I feel the Lord here right now I said God's ready to send Revival and evangelism is going to be the result of it I have a daughter and son-in-law that's not here today they're at home working but my son-in-law received the Holy Ghost as a boy in our church and got baptized and came to our church school and and was a good boy but after a while he got out of school he really got a real move of the spirit of God in his life he got a real move of God in his life and ever since that time it changed him you know it's beautiful to see the work of the Holy Spirit and every Pastor rejoices when they see a life that has been maybe a little non-committed and like aaal and yet there's an oldfashioned praying through and they get on fire for God they come by and say

Pastor what can I do what can I do that's the spirit that's that's the attitude of somebody that's really prayed through what can I do for the church and for the work of God and I told him I said Rodney you you can teach a Bible study he said I've never taught one I've never taught one I said but you can you can teach a Bible study and he said well how do you go about getting one and so we talked about that for a while well the result was that he said I'll start off with this teenage boy by the name of [name redacted] he's still in school and and [name redacted]'s a good musician he comes from a family of outstanding musicians and and he said I'll teach [name redacted] so he started teaching [name redacted] [name redacted] got baptized and got the Holy Ghost and that's just been a few months ago and now he's already playing music in our choir and when he got a hold of that that was a beautiful thing brother Manuel when he got a hold of that it was like something begin to turn over inside of him something opened up inside of him he began to believe hey if if I can do it once I can do it again there's people sitting right here today that could teach a Bible study but the devil's got you intimidated and you don't believe you can do it I've just come here to tell you you can do it there's people here that say I can't win a soul but I'm here to tell you that God designs you to be a soul winner God designs you to be a soul winner he that winner Souls is wise and so there was a young couple that started coming to church named Terry and Debbie and he said you think I could approach them I said why don't you he taught them a Bible study Terry and Debbie got baptized and got the Holy Ghost they're coming every service they just had a new baby about 3 weeks ago and they're a sweet couple after that it gets kept getting a hold of him and he said you think I could teach another and I said why don't you give it a try and he be to teach James and Dominic a young couple with three children and while he's teaching them they all they both of them got baptized and got filled with the Holy Ghost praise God and this this thing began to get a hold of his heart and he told me just about 3 weeks ago he said I need I've already finished one or two I need to take on another Bible study and and so he began to teach a young man and while I was in Missouri at brother mcgr a couple of weeks ago he brought him to church and baptized him in Jesus name and and I call he teaching there Monday night and I called home from here and he said I got his brother to come and this weekend he's going to get baptized then he said his daddy and mama is going to get baptized now now here's what I'm saying bless God it's time for this church to get turned old it's time for us to get turned on about evangelism come on Pentecostal we've been stuck in the mud too long it's time to win souls w Lord but I can't do it I just I can't speak I can't talk well enough I don't have a good enough understanding of the scripture there's not a Spirit-filled believer in this house today that can't win a soul God designed you to be a soul winner Hallelujah when Revival comes evangelism is going to be the result of that deep burning fire of Revival that's burning in the hearts of God's people oh Hallelujah I believe it's time to obey what the Lord taught us and go in the streets of the city and into the lanes and into the highways and into the byways Hallelujah Sunday week ago we have a young man that got a got a desire for for Outreach Ministry in the rest homes and he goes there every week and and preaches and they sing and he didn't just go and just patty cake a little he said I want to make this the soul winning Endeavor brother go there I know these people in the sunset of their lives and I want to reach them before it's too late Hallelujah and he's brought several of them to church and they've been baptized and filled with the Holy Ghost one lady got baptized and filled with the Holy Ghost a week later she died and he came to me and said oh that's the lady I baptized and got the Holy Ghost she's dead and gone now but she obeyed God before she left here I'm going to tell you something friend there is a reward that's awaiting you that are willing to pay the price and be moved in the fields that are white and ready to harvest Sunday week ago Wesley said pastor I've got a man that wants to be baptized he's 77 or eight whatever but he said the problem is he's a big man and he only has one leg and it's very difficult for him to get around and he has a huge hole right here in his throat and they've done surgery on him it looks awful and he said what can I

do I said why don't you con contact the doctor and see if the doctor would recommend something we don't want to do anything that they don't want us to do and he contacted the doctor and no I didn't want to ground him and so he contacted the doctor and the doctor said I'll tell you what he said Sunday I'll come to your church and I'll take care of everything doctor's not even a member of our church and here he came last Sunday and he set in on the whole service and and then at the close of the service he went up up in the Babs area took him about 30 minutes of working on him couple of three of our young men got him and put him down in the water in Jesus name and the doctor stayed about 45 minutes after the service was over tending to him to make sure everything was all right Hallelujah and I went up sh hands with him I said Doctor you don't know how much I appreciate you coming today and doing this he said Reverend anybody that wants to get baptized that bad and anybody like this young man that wants him to get baptized that bad I'm just happy to give my time hallelujah hallelujah and I want you to know that everybody out there is not against God everybody's not anti- Pentecost everybody's not fighting the truth there's some Open Hearts out there that are saying Jesus I Need You Jesus I Need You hallelujah hallelujah don't tell me they're not hungry they are don't tell me they don't want God they do want God they do want God it's our responsibility it's our responsibility may be seated it's our responsibility it's our responsibility the fish never jump out of the lake to try to get caught on your hook I don't care how good the bait is if you want to catch fish my friend you got to go where they are and if one bait don't work youve got to change baits and I'm not talking about changing the gospel you don't believe that neither do I there's a gospel that works Hallelujah there's a gospel of death burial and resurrection that has hasn't changed in almost 2,000 years and it's not going to change today and it won't change tomorrow but I'm telling you that sometime our approach has got to change and sometime our attitude has got to change and sometime our spirit has got to change Hallelujah the old days of of getting a guitar with two strings off of it and having church and beating away and having everybody in the house to testify and all almost all all of them are are discouraged testimonies and and you know I've been through all that I was raised in church and and as a boy I remember all of that I used to read testimony service and I'm not talking about a good testimony there's still time for that Hallelujah but I don't want anybody testify to my churchless they got something to say bless God unless they got something good and positive and wonderful to say about Jesus then just keep your seat somebody there God's been good to there's somebody sitting there that God is blessed oh hallelujah hallelujah said we need to forget about Dead songs and dead testimonies and dead courses and dead prayer rooms and dead sermons and dead Services somehow we need to invite the Holy Ghost into this thing oh God we do things that maybe we didn't do years ago I believe it's time for the church to start door knocking you say I never want a soul by door knocking well I I've seen Souls one to God by door knocking God honors the effort he honors the fact that you go forth and when you don't win that one the holy spirit will reach out and bring somebody else's home Hallelujah but there's people being one to God by door knocking brother Mark Foster is here today from our state and from Winston Salem they've been winning Souls by door knocking knocking hundreds of doors a week amen I have a nephew here today that's sitting back here he and his wife went to Salsbury North Carolina 3 years ago had a little dilapidated building and and on the back side of town it was the last building on the street when you left there you went in the woods and that is a fact but he took that little group with 10 people and was excited about it Hallelujah that's part of the key right there is getting
