Revival is in Sight

Main Point:  Current events continue to show we are entering a harvest time of revival.  Young men are turning to God and young women are next, in Jesus’ name.

Foundation Scripture:  Acts 19:1-27.  A revival, move of God, will impact culture and the economy because people in large numbers begin to live biblical lives.

Pastor’s Thoughts:

• We are at harvest time for revival.
• Definition of revival.   A turn toward God by repentance.
• Evidence of revival.  The culture is changed.  The economy and businesses are impacted.
• We are in an exciting time.  Revival is in sight and the evidence is starting to be obvious even to those who are not Christian organizations
• Why?  Because God has ordained it. Habakkuk 2:3. The vision of Godly events will occur in God’s perfect timing.

• The evidence and statistics shows that young GenZ men are turning conservation and Christian in large numbers
• This last election was decided by young men voting conservative.

Pastor’s Thoughts:

• I believe that Gen Z and Gen Alpha women are next to turn to Jesus in large numbers. (within the next 5 years)
  • I believe the next phase of Revival in the USA, is women joyfully accepting their biblical role.
    • Men it is very important that you not force women to be obedient but you love them (with sacrificial love) into their biblical role. 
      • Men you are not the woman’s boss, she is not your slave, she is the one that sharpens you to be a Godly man.

The Church Role in revival

• It’s all about Love.
• Stay rooted in firm doctrine and love others.
• Welcome all with Love and a tender heart.
• Pointing everyone to Jesus.
• Our culture is ready to hear the truth.  Truth has a name.  The name is Jesus.

Pastor’s Thoughts:

• Church organizational success (from man’s perspective) is not the answer.
• The answer is Love.

Summary:

• Revival is in sight.
• The evidence is all around
• It’s time for the church to love and be bold proclaiming the name of Jesus whenever possible.
• Don’t miss it.  Stay close to Jesus.
• Our culture is ready to hear about Jesus.
• Pray for more salvations and baptisms.
