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 ?

     We just celebrated Easter and had some great services but the Easter Celebration should last all year long for the grave remains

empty forevermore. The tomb is empty so that we could be full ( of the Holy Spirit ). Christ said it was needful for he to go away

so that he could send the Holy Spirit. Thats how we know that the words of Christ is true, we have the Holy Spirit in us. The

Bible says that if we have not the spirit of God then we are none of his. We also  have the fruits of the Spirit which shows that

we are connected to the true vine ( Christ ).  As you read this purpose in your heart to celebrate your salvation that the empty

tomb secured. He is alive forever Rev. 1 : 18.
