LET THE FIRE OF REVIVAL KEEP BURNING AND NOT DIE     
TEXT:  JOEL 2: 28-30
Key verse: Joel 2:29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.

It was a historic revival in Los Angeles, California, led by William Seymour. The revival began in April 1906 and continued until 1915. On the night of April 9, 1906, Seymour and seven men were waiting on God, "when suddenly, as though hit by lightning, they were knocked from their chairs to the floor," and the other seven men began to speak in tongues and shout loud praises to God. 

The news quickly spread; the city was stirred; crowds gathered; and a few days later, Seymour himself received the Holy Spirit; services were moved outside to accommodate the crowds who came from all around; people fell down under the power of God as they approached; people were baptized in the Holy Spirit and the sick were healed and sinners received salvation. To further accommodate the crowds, a building at 312 Azusa Street was secured. In this humble Azusa Street mission, a continuous three-year revival occurred and became known around the world. The revival produced spiritual experiences with testimonies of physical healing miracles, worship services, and speaking in tongues. 

News of the events quickly circulated among the residents of the city, and for several nights, various speakers would preach to the crowds of curious and interested onlookers from the front porch of the Asberry home. Members of the audience included people from a broad spectrum of income levels and religious backgrounds. Soon the crowds became very large and were full of people speaking in tongues, shouting, singing and moaning. 
By 1913, the revival at Azusa Street had lost momentum, and most of the media attention and crowds had left by 1915. Seymour remained there with his wife, Jennie, for the rest of their lives as pastors of the small African American congregation, though he often made short trips to help establish other smaller revivals later in life. 

Thought for the day: The revival produced spiritual experiences with testimonies of 
healing, miracles, worship services, and speaking in tongues. 
Song for the day: Revival, Pentecostal revival (3x), We need the revival….
Bible reading for the day: Isaiah 45-47; Colossians 3

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
