As of this day (day two of the Revival) we are experiencing an awesome move of God.  The two nights of Pre-revival prayer really set the spiritual atmosphere for the revival.  Thank God for the moving of the Holy Spirit.  Day one of the revival began with a Psalm 100 movement: “Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands.  Serve the Lord with gladness: come before His presence with singing.  Know ye that the Lord He is God: it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.”  Then, the crowning moment came with the preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  The Evangelist took us in the word to the very throne room of God with the message: “We have a Great Salvation”.

We, corporately, the Body of Christ, presently possess this great salvation, that originated with God the Father, that was consummated by God the Son, and is perpetuated by God the Holy Spirit.  We know of a certainty that we are in a right relationship with our Heavenly Father.  Our names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.  The supreme manifestation of God’s grace, the focal point in the history of salvation, is the cross of Jesus Christ.

Salvation is a free gift of God granted to lost and underserving men who trust in the righteousness of Christ and humble themselves in submission to His will.  We join with the poet, William P. Mackay, and proclaim:

“We praise Thee, of God! for the Son of thy love,

for Jesus who died, and is now gone above.

Hallelujah! Thine the glory, hallelujah! Amen!

Hallelujah! Thine the glory, revive us again.“

It’s Revival time!  I hope that you are as excited about it as this Pastor.  Good singing, good preaching, and the invitation for sinners to come to Christ.  That is about as good as it can be.  We are expecting the Holy Spirit to do a mighty work in this Revival and Soul Saving Campaign.  The Holy Spirit will do the drawing and we will do the supporting.  The wise man tells us: “The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise” (Prov. 11:30).  A wise person is a model of a meaningful life.  His/her sense of purpose attracts others who want to know how they too can find meaning and purpose.  Gaining wisdom yourself, then, can be the first step in leading people to Christ.  Brother James tells us in James 5:20, “Let him know, that he which converteth the  sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude  of sins.”

Dear ones, we are urged to help backsliders return to God and help sinners turn to Christ for salvation.  By taking the initiative, we can support the Holy Ghost in this great effort.

· First of all, we can and must pray.  Pray for the lost and the         backslider.  Call them out by name, where possible.  To help you in this endeavor, Pre-Revival Prayer Services, Monday and Tuesday, August 9 and 10.  Please know this, Dear ones, revivals are prayed down (Psalm 85:6) “Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?”.

· Secondly, please support the Revival financially.  We do not receive a public offering during the Revival.  Prayerfully determine your  level of giving and place that amount in a Revival Offering envelope.

· Thirdly, attend and witness or witness and attend (just do it).

Remember, Revival and Soul Saving Campaign, Wednesday, August 11, thru Friday, August 13, 2021.
