Revival . . .

Do you feel the need for a personal revival? Are you seeking God like never before? Can you feel the expectancy in the air?

If you do, you are among a growing company of ministers that are sensing the drawing of the Spirit of Grace and Supplications (Zechariah 12:10). Everywhere I travel I find there is a hunger, a thirst, that does not seem to be satisfied as men and women all over the Nation are rekindling the fire of their first love experience with Jesus.

In the Hebrew, The Spirit of Grace is ruwach chen [khane], which means, The Breath or Life Source of Graciousness; Kindness, Favor; Beauty, and of being Well-favored. The word Supplications is the Hebrew word: tachanuwn, which means earnest prayer; entreaty. It is the request of an inferior for the kindness and a move of favor from a Superior.

What we are experiencing is the stirring of the Holy Spirit, the Life Source of Graciousness, drawing us into earnest prayer for an outpouring of favor and kindness upon the Body of Christ and the world at large. God is preparing our hearts for the revival and harvest that He has purposed in His heart. This is an exciting thought, in that, "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much" (James 5:16). This word, availeth, is the Greek word ischuo. It means, to have (or exercise) force; to be able, to avail, to prevail, and to be of strength.

We are being, individually and collectively, drawn in to strong, forceful, prevailing prayer for the benefit of ourselves and others, in order to bring about the plan and purpose of God for this hour.

He is going to move in power and demonstration!
