We just celebrated our 90th year here at Bethel and it reminds me of the verse in the book of acts which reads "But if it be of God

 ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God" Acts 5:39. I tell you today that it has been about God and we need

to keep it that way." With God all things are possible". With God "no weapon formed against me shall prosper". With God " my enemy

will come at me one way and flee seven". With God "a thousand will fall at my side and ten thousand at my right hand". With God

"I can do all things". Now let me say that if you are of God then you are unstoppable and with that attitude you can come into the Holy

of Holies with boldness and worship the King.

         Revival is near when repentance is near. In Isa. 6 we find Isaiah saying " woe is me for I am a man of unclean lips". When he realized this

he was ready to make it right ( repent). To many times we compare ourselves to others and therefore feel that we are living a life pleasing to God.

Others are not the standard, God is. Isaiah thought he was doing just fine while preaching to others to repent but when he encountered the Living

Majestic God of the universe he realized he was a man of unclean lips. I believe that two things need to happen before revival comes. First we need a

personal encounter with God. Isaiah was alone with God when this happened and we to need to be alone with God. Then second thing, when we

 get alone with God we will see just how far removed we are from Gods' standard of Holiness. It is then time to repent and revival will be birthed.

     We all have people that we are praying for about thier salvation. So we pray "Lord I hope that you dont come until my brother or father is saved".

I just feel the Lord saying to us "what are you doing about thier salvation?". Are we just going to keep praying like that or are we going to do

something about the lost? Its time to get busy for one day he is coming and then it will be to late. Lets not just pray but may we put feet to our

prayers and do something. Jesus said that he came to seek and to save that which was lost and we my friend are to imitators of Christ.

Mark 11:23-24

23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt

in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. In this verse I hear Jesus saying

to expect to receive when you pray. I am expecting a Revival spirit to break out just any time. As the coming of our savior draws near and he pours

out his spirit I believe that we are hungry and ready to receive of him. Would you allow the spirit to have his way in your life today and be a one

man Revival if nessary ?
