Kingdom Revival - Hope of The World - Ron McGatlin
Sudden destruction is historically the end of the nation that turns its back on God's ways and has its strength eroded by self indulgence and carnal pleasure instead of seeking God's ways and leadership. In America, the tide is finally turning. Revival is beginning to have an impact on our world.
The degradation of the past is being healed by the outpouring of God's Spirit upon a new people. A people seeking God and his ways of kingdom living. The toll has been great. We have experienced the break down of families and personal morals and values erroding the fiber of society and bringing forth a costly flood of self indulgence and pleasure seeking.
The systems of the world cannot long continue to bear the burden of man’s living apart from the ways of God. Nations have crumbled and will continue to do so under the weight of the cost of sinful pleasure and self indulgence. As the children of each generation without revival grow less able to make decisions that lead toward life and more unwilling to take responsibility for their own actions and lives, the cost increases. As the generations become more dependent, less productive, and unable to provide for themselves the cost becomes unbearable to governments and a strain on all the systems of the planet.
Thank God for spiritual awakening -- for with it comes awakening of reality thinking by God’s people. Men’s minds are being freed and the flow of godly wisdom is returning to cause mankind to find his way to real life and away from the seducing trickery of self indulgence and carnal pleasure seeking. People set free by the power of God in revival become God seekers who seek to know Him and to walk in obedience to His ways. Once freed from carnal pleasure seeking and self indulgence, the people begin to loose their bent toward violence. Without their appetites for violence and carnal pleasure, people become free to love and serve one another as they love and serve God with their whole hearts.
Revival is not optional. And compared to the alternative it is not too costly. The alternative to not having revival in our world is unthinkable. The cost is beyond compare. To count the stars of heaven would be easier than counting the total cost of not having revival in our world. No amount of cost we pay for revival, either individually, or collectively world wide is too much. Any amount of cost of our lives and effort is worth paying for world revival.
God is pouring out His Spirit in this time and the potential for world wide revival is a reality in this day and the days just ahead. The time for religious debate and walls of separation between real life and God’s people is past. Revival is destroying separations and will eventually destroy the separation of God and governments of many nations of the world.
National governments and ungodly ruling institutions are now feeling threatened by the reality of the kingdom of God coming forth in the World. They will be changed or brought down by the power and presence of God as kingdom revival and reformation sweep the land. As God continues to pour out His Spirit and His people respond with unrestrained praise and worship and gather themselves unto Him in intimate prayer, revival is changing our world. No price is too great in response to the One who gave His life on the cross to become the resurrected Christ indwelling His people bringing kingdom revival to the world.
