Israel: Good news and a movie

How many times do you hear of good news for Israel? Typically we hear of rockets and bombing and nuclear warfare… and from the Christian corner it’s mostly about end times destruction and who’s going to be left behind.

My job is not to bring an end-time message to Jewish people. My job is to bring a message of good news. I want to be the “beautiful feet” the Bible refers to that bring hope and life to Israel.

God has a plan for the Jews. Anyone, anytime, anywhere, that calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.

You can walk by faith (a revival teaching)

Yep, you can do it. If you can walk in fear, then you can walk in faith! Both come from a belief system.

God didn’t wire you to be afraid. His original wiring for your life was to live a life of faith.

But just like everything else, Adam and Eve’s sin twisted faith into fear. The end result was that everybody’s got it now. Nobody has to teach you to be afraid.

But that means everybody can get this right and start living the life of faith God intended.

Exponential increase

Sunday’s interactive service at World Revival Church was a dream come true for using media to advance global revival. There was an exponential increase in God’s presence as we worshiped together, connected in Kansas City from our different corners of the world.

I felt like we were talking with dear friends… People of different ethnicities and origins with a common purpose of bringing honor to God in our churches and lives.

Interactive church and global revival

Our technical team at World Revival Church has been working hard to move us towards interactive global services. The possibilities are endless as we set this in place!

This weekend will be an interactive global gathering of 4-5 churches. Canada, Finland and Holland along with other U.S. churches and our new World Revival Church North are stepping into a new realm of global-ness together.

The uniqueness of this venture is that we will be interacting with one another via internet. We’ve had test runs with this between our main WRC campus and WRC North and I’m pleased with the result.

Revival worship and how healing comes

Need healing? Try worship! It may be the key to receiving the powerful touch you need to be well.

Almost all of the healings in our services at World Revival Church happen during the season of worship. It’s amazing to see how God uses those moments to move in power.

God wants to heal you, but many times people are innocent victims of a faulty religious system that has left the door open to sickness and disease.

Get God's attention

God likes to be pursued. He likes it when we run after him!

I want to be a man running after God's own heart. I hope you will run with me and I’m inviting you to join me for this upcoming conference.

REVIVAL WORSHIP CONFERENCE
October 26-29th
World Revival Church of Kansas City

Come run with me at our RESPOND Revival Worship Conference. We’ve got a great line up of guests that will help all of us run harder and faster:

Roy Fields – worship leader and friend of revival. He’s known worldwide for revival worship with Run with Fire Ministries.

Revival 101: How to receive an anointing

Want an effective ministry? Get an anointing. The anointing of God is real and it makes the difference between a ministry that is changing lives – and one that’s not.

As ministers, something personal needs to happen in us for God to be able to move through us. You’ve got to become vulnerable to God. You’ve got to be pliable… with no walls, no pride and no pre-conceived ideas.

Are you a Disneyland Christian?

Not that I’m opposed to Disneyland or anything. It’s a great place to vacation, but if you’re the kind of Christian “wishing upon a star” and waiting for God to do something, then we’re in trouble – especially if you think you’re in revival!

Most people are dreamers and/or thinkers. They think about revival, dream about revival – but they’re not actually planning on doing something about revival.

God is sovereign, but he has sovereignly chosen to work through man! If you want revival, you’ve got to go after God with all that you are. Then, all that he is will come to you.

Don’t try this at home (or “Pastors – you don’t have to lose your congregation”)

Ever heard a pastor say, “Yeah, I tried revival and it split my church.” Or “half the congregation left.” Or “my denomination kicked me out.”

Sad stories - but is revival the real reason behind the church split or the disgruntled parishioners?

I like to say that revival reveals the division that’s already there. It has a way of sorting out the sheep from the goats, the devoted from the luke-warm and half-hearted.

How to restore a nation

9/11 changed our lives completely. As I shared this past weekend in revival services, it changed the way we think, the way we live... In fact, if you compare today with September 10, 2001 the contrast is really pretty amazing.

But 9/11 didn’t come as a total surprise to those with their spiritual antennas up. In May of that year, two times, in two different places, I shared that “we were about to have an event that will change our life forever.” I prophesied that it would be “like Pearl Harbor” in its scope.
