Question: How do we become like the first century Christians?
Many have tried over the centuries to replicate the love, unity, peace, joy, and power that the first century Christians had. We saw it for a few short years during the Azusa street revival from 1906-1909, where God poured out His Spirit and manifested His presence in the Shekinah glory, a supernatural fog like cloud that never left and could be felt for a mile radius around the Azusa street mission building.
What's the common denominator in every revival and great move of God? The outpouring of God's Spirit! A supernatural intervention from God in Heaven that changes the atmosphere, the environment, and the hearts and minds of mankind. People have to be turned from the power of satan to the power of God, there is no other way to bring about a lasting change unless God comes down!
Whenever a group of people really get together with the same heart and mind to not just talk about God but to EXPERIENCE God it's not long before He answers. God heard the cry's of the Israelites during the time of Moses and He answered. He heard the cry's and saw the fasting of Esther and the Jewish people and He answered. God poured out His Spirit on the day of Pentecost when one hundred and twenty disciples waited in the upper room for the promise of the Holy Spirit. And once again as a group of believers got together in Los Angeles California in 1906 at the Bonnie Brae house to pray and seek the face of God for another outpouring of His Spirit, He answered yet again and a great revival took place that went across the world.
The time has come again for another outpouring of God's Spirit, with war, pestilence, famine, racial tensions, and every evil known to man ravaging this world, nothing else will bring about the change that so many are desperately crying out for unless God comes down again!
Pray for God to pour out His Spirit again!
In His Service,
