the church is not ready for Revival
the church is not ready for Revival I’m
including this church
you say well how can that be brother
Dave we’re fasting we’re praying every
well you can do all those things and
still not be ready so let’s let’s get
into the word of God tonight and let’s
believe the Lord to speak to our hearts
the church is not ready to move out by
the way visitors welcome
the only thing we want you to experience
here is the Manifest presence of Jesus
you don’t go out here talking about the
music you won’t be talking about the
preaching you’ll be talking about I met
Jesus there I felt his presence that’s
all that we asked
Heavenly Father
I need you I need you Holy Spirit to
come upon me with the unction the
anointing that is yours I’m just a
vessel I’m a body Lord come upon this
body come upon this mind and the spirit
cleanse me sanctify me let me nothing
between us oh God let there be a Clear
Channel sanctify me Purge me for this
moment thank you for the cleansing of
the blood of Jesus we take your
authority over every prince of proud and
power of Darkness over anything that
would hinder the light from coming forth
in the darkness speak to this church
speak to me in the process Lord let this
not be just another message let it have
its Mark in our hearts change our
thinking change the way we pray change
the way we approach you o God and
instill faith in our hearts I pray in
Jesus name Lord I need you I acknowledge
it amen
the church is not ready for Revival
now you know as well as I do there are
two kinds of churches in the world today
there’s the dead cold formal church that
dead cold former church God says is not
only dead it’s twice dead you’re going
to pluck it up by the roots
now God can’t bless that church with
Revival because God doesn’t send his
Spirit to those who don’t welcome him
and there are many churches in America
today that don’t want the Holy Ghost
believe it or not I’ve been in some of
those churches I’ve preached in them
they are they have a form of God and
this the Bible says with no power
I have been in churches literally these
are various denominational churches and
and the pastor would read the cross and
switch blade this number of years ago
and invite me to the pulpit they knew I
had a Pentecostal background that I
talked about the Holy Ghost and they
read my book about the Holy Ghost
changing lives through the cross and
switchblade and I could see them sitting
there while I’m preaching and when the
spirit of the Lord would come on me
they’d get so nervous and go way down in
their seats and when people would start
weeping that really scared them and if
I’d give an invitation they’d come up
often as soon as I head out took a
breath they would jump up and the first
thing they want everybody off their
knees and out the door as fast as they
could unless the Holy Ghost do something
strange and out of order
I’ve had that happen a number of times
it is so angered man and and how men who
are supposed to be walking in the spirit
do not welcome him afraid some strange
manifestation something strange folks
the Holy Ghost he blows where he chooses
he does what he wants but we have we
have people who we have pastors and
churches who do not want any moving of
the Holy Spirit that’s the dead cold
formal Church
but there is another church in the world
today that’s the holy Remnant church
that’s given holy to Jesus no compromise
with the world consisting of people who
pray and fast and seek the face of God
now I’m concerned with the righteous
Holy Ghost Church tonight that’s the
only church with a possibility of
receiving an outpouring of the Holy
Ghost
uh I don’t usually use the word Revival
because Revival means the resurrection
of that which threatens to become a
corpse
if you revive somebody means they’ve
already passed out
and I don’t think we have passed out in
this church
so I’d like to talk about Revival I like
to talk about an outpouring of the Holy
Ghost but I use the word Revival because
that’s a term most people understand
I’m telling you now that I don’t believe
that even the true church is ready for
the great outpouring of the Holy Ghost
promised is not ready yet
they righteous church can be engrossed
in prayer we can call you to pray you
can pray for weeks and months you can
fast you can cry out you can suffocate
before the Lord with tears and a strong
crying and still not be ready for
Revival or an Awakening of the Holy
Ghost
he’s not going to waste his Spirit on
those who refuse to repair themselves
and I think it’s absolutely necessary to
go into the word of God and find out how
God’s people prepared themselves and
what the prophets say and folks there
are some promises that are on call right
now they are on call they are ready to
be fulfilled and God’s just waiting for
people prepared to lay hold of those
promises we’re going to talk about them
tonight
there’s a Biblical pattern now of course
God’s spirit comes uh on people
occasionally that are not worthy there
have been records of the Holy Ghost
falling in various tribes and around the
world on those who are unexpecting it
and God just out of his grace and mercy
sends the Holy Ghost and there’s a
resurrection there’s a breathing and
life comes
but usually the pattern is that God has
set a standard he has shoulders away and
he works through a prepared people now I
want to give you three valid reasons
tonight well I believe the Church the
true church is not yet ready quite ready
for Revival or an outpouring of the Holy
Ghost
now listen to me closely this is burning
in my heart because I’m just as guilty
as anybody else and I’ve asked God to
deal with me on these three issues
all right issue number one the church is
not ready for Revival
because we are pretty much convinced
that Society is just about sinned away
it’s a day of Grace that America has so
grieved God for example that it’s past
remedy and there’s no hope
now folks for the past 10 years I was
nearly convinced in My Heart by the
terrible moral landslide in America
and the horrible intensity of sin
I was pretty much convinced
that nothing was left no other option
God had but judgment
and I have preached the impending
Judgment of God for the past probably 15
years but more intensely in the past 10
years preaching about the coming
judgments of the Lord and I I believe
that with all of my heart I have not
changed my thinking on that at all
but it’s absolutely possible
yes I know it’s possible for societies
to send away their day of Grace
God Waits patiently
he sends prophets just like he is here
in America there are many prophetic
prophetic voices in the land warning of
coming judgment
but a day finally comes
and you find it all through church
history a day finally comes and God said
it’s enough
it happened in time of Noah 120 days if
God’s strive 120 years of God striving
and then he said that’s enough and God
wiped up Humanity other than those who
are in the ark it happened in Sodom and
Gomorrah when God counted the days and
he said you’re you’re a couple of Nicky
is full your sins have been sent into
heaven and God has enough and he wiped
out Sodom and Gomorrah and all the
surrounding towns and Villages around
Sodom and Gomorrah it’s happened it
happened in Jerusalem when God in his
patience even Christ walked the streets
and wept and he warned them of what was
coming and 70 years after Jesus
the uh city of Jerusalem failed was
burnt and thousands were murdered in a
horrible Holocaust in Jerusalem God said
that’s enough
now God sent Jeremiah to the gates of
the temple and he had this solemn cry
God said go and preach this message
and Jeremiah cried
God said to Jeremiah go now unto my
place which is at Shiloh he’s telling
Israel think back to Shiloh where I set
my name at first and see what I did to
it for the wickedness of My People
Israel
therefore will I do unto this house
which is called by my name wherein you
trust and unto the place I give unto you
and to your fathers as I’ve done to
Shiloh therefore pray not for this
people
neither lift up your cry
don’t pray for them neither make
intercession to me for I’ll not hear you
anymore
God said there comes a time when you can
stop praying because my patience is gone
and I have determined judgment so don’t
pray for these people God told Jeremiah
I’m I’m going to take my spirit I’m
going to take it out from the East Gate
and I’m going to just lift it from the
house of God it’s going to be just like
Shiloh go back to see what happened to
Shiloh that’s where Eli remember the
spirit of God departed Ichabod was
written over the door
and God says any other Nation any other
people that reach this point there comes
a time when it’s enough
in fact Ezekiel
had the same message given to his heart
by the Lord son of man
when the Lord when the land sins
grievously against me trespassing then
will I stretch out my hand upon it I
will break the staff of the bread
thereof that reading that means the
economic depression and I’ll send famine
upon it and I’ll cut off man and Beast
from it and though these three men Noah
Daniel and job were in it they still
deliver but their own Souls by their
righteousness and saith the Lord God
they shall deliver neither their sons
nor their daughters
they only shall be delivered but the
Lord but the land shall be desolate
if these three men know what Daniel and
job were in it they couldn’t pray a
Revival they couldn’t pray or how
praying to the Holy Ghost they couldn’t
even pray for more time
God says I determined judgment that’s it
all the Frank people in the world can’t
change my mind
no that is very clear in Scripture
study the prophets carefully
and you will see this pattern all
through
God says I’ve given Silo as an example
and that’s for every coming generation
including our generation
now when I see what God did to Noah’s
generation when I see what God does
Sodom and to Jerusalem
I began to look at America and I began
to deduct in my mind
I begin to reason with god well Lord
you destroyed
Noah’s generation with just a fraction
of the violence that we have
oh God there’s no way that they were
killing 25 million babies
there was no way that they were
murdering like we are in our streets
there’s no way such widespread violence
that we have we’re a million times worse
than Noah’s generation you destroyed
them you judge them
Lord there were uh there were sodomites
and homosexuals roaming the streets
of Sodom oh God we we have just in one
parade here just one prayed of naked
homosexuals and act up uh violent
homosexuals we have a half million
sometimes more than the population of
Sodom in one March
and I say oh God if you destroy them how
are you going to despair us
and Lord in Jerusalem there was apostasy
and there was idolatry but that’s one
little city we have a whole nation like
that
and how do you spare us
and as if as of this day right now
January 8
1995 the fierce judgments of God have
been held back from America you know
that
our economy is still booming they say
try to tell that to the unemployed
all I see in the paper one one company
after another laying people off
but you see our gross national product
is increasing the automobile factories
are putting out more cars at any time in
history record-breaking pace
in New York Times today it says
inflation is holding steady and we are
in a a baby boom they call it and
everything is looking good but you know
in spite of that why isn’t it bringing
sense of security to the people why is
it that everybody still has a feeling of
something hanging the air and that
there’s something about to happen even
the worst uh sinner even the secular
mind they are not in nobody feels secure
it’s just like they’re waiting for the
shoe to fall there is a total lack of
security a sense of security in the land
and we know this nation knows it
deserves judgment
they’re not a sinner on the street here
in New York that doesn’t know that this
city is headed for judgment and deserves
judgment you and I know America deserves
judgment
foreign
but there’s a sense everywhere hang in
there that we’re on borrowed time
how many cents that on your job and
wherever you go people feel like they’re
on borrowed time
I don’t believe that we’re ready for a
Revival
when we have a knowing sense in us that
there’s no more hope
that we have sinned away our day of
Grace and that there’s nothing left but
judgment how can you have faith for God
to do anything in this last day if you
believe it’s all over
now this is something you’ve got to see
God’s been getting with me on this
there was a time 15 years ago when I saw
the coming calamities and I was telling
people run from your cities and go get
five acres somewhere and and store up
food
because I had given up on the country
we can’t pray in faith or great
outpouring of God’s holy spirit until
we’re convinced that God still wants to
pour out his spirit
that he still wants to save uh great
there’s a harvest yet why hasn’t Jesus
come yet why has America not been judged
yet folks we have a major judgment we’ve
got a plague in the land we’ve got new
diseases coming up that nobody has been
able to describe some of them coming up
that are going to be worse than AIDS
some diseases that can kill in 24 hours
we’ve got some terrible signs of
judgment but on the whole we we are
still blessed
the Bible says Jesus is waiting
patiently for the Harvest
he’s waiting
he’s not willing that Annie should
perish
but I’ll also come to repentance
I want you to go to Isaiah the 50th
chapter where the heart of my message is
aiah 50.
first two verses
how many want to hear from God’s word
you’re going to hear it
thus saith the Lord
where’s the bill of your mother’s
divorcement
whom I have put away
of which of my creditors is it to whom I
have sold you
behold for your iniquities have you sold
yourself and for your transgressions as
your mother put away
wherefore when I came was there no man
when I called was there none to answer
is my hand shortened at all that it
cannot redeem or I have no or have I no
power to deliver behold it my rebuke I
draw up the sea I make the rivers of
wilderness the fish stinketh because
there’s no water and Dias for thirst
all right look at me please in these two
verses we have the key to what I’m
preaching about tonight God is saying to
Judah now remember this God has already
divorced Israel and gave her a bill of
divorcement I I read it to you wherefore
all the causes whereby backsliding
Israel committed adultery and I put her
away and gave her a bill of divorce
Jeremiah 3 8. said Jeremiah said or
Israel sinned against me and I divorced
her Israel’s divorced from me and folks
even though he was divorced from Israel
he had a heart for Judah
and he he was he is saying to Jude oh by
the way for Israel even though he was
divorced
listen to the mercy of God he says
return to me all backsliding Israel
and I will
not cause my anger to fall upon you for
I am merciful saith the Lord thou not
keep my anger forever only acknowledge
your iniquity that you have transgressed
against the Lord thy God even though
he’s divorced from Israel even though
Israel had sinned grievously just like
America and even though God was divorced
he said if you’ll just come back and
return acknowledge your transgressed
against me I’ll receive you back
but see Judah now has walked away from
God Judah does not learn a lesson he she
sees the Judgment of God on Israel for
having been divorced from God
and now the Lord comes to Judah Judah
is a wife that’s cheated on the Lord so
to speak she’s walked away she’s got her
own little place now her little hunt of
adultery and fornication and she’s
playing the part of a harlot
and God comes to Judah
Clays out
where is the Bill of your mother’s
divorcement
whom I have put away
of which of my credit is it to you
to whom I have sold you
God has said God came to Judah and says
show me your divorce papers
prove to me that I ever divorced you I
didn’t divorce you you walked away from
me
it’s your own sin that’s caused this
estrangement between us I loved you all
the time I did nothing to grieve you I
did nothing to hurt you I’ve loved you
you saw what Israel did to me you saw
how Israel I gave Israel divorce papers
but I have loved you and I have not left
you and here you see God saying when
wherefore I came I call
here is the Lord going out in the
streets going out after Judah in the
very den of iniquity in the den of
harlotry and he’s calling he said I’m
coming after you
and you’re telling everybody there’s no
hope that I’ve divorced you
that there’s no hope that we can’t get
together anymore that there never be a
time of love
he said but I’ve come to call you I’ve
come back to you
and folks that’s exactly what I see God
doing yet in America
God said show me your divorce papers
show me where I walked away from you
folks God has not lifted the Holy Ghost
yet from New York City or from America
the Holy Ghost is here working
everywhere he’s working all over America
yet he’s still wooing he’s still calling
then he says I came to you I called you
he’s calling through me he’s calling
through this pastor in the pastor of
this church he’s calling you men of God
who’ve gone our face seeking him he’s
calling this nation to repentance
calling him back to his own heart
he said I’ve not divorced you
you see if you come to the place where
you believe God’s divorced America
divorced this land divorced this city
you can’t pray in faith
God spoke to my heart I have got to
believe in you have got to believe that
God is still coming by his Spirit he is
wooing people up and down these streets
while you are not sitting in this church
tonight the Holy Ghost is wooing people
all over this city and all over the land
he said I came
now there was no answer we’ll get into
that in just a moment
there was no answer
God still loved Israel
folks God still loves this nation though
we’re getting very very close to what I
call the dread release
there you can read in the Old Testament
many times your wound is incurable
pray no more
thank God we still have time
I pray for Faith right now
in your heart and mind
that we will not even as much as we see
of the iniquity of this city we will not
give up on it
Lord says when I came when I called
where were those who would respond
where were those who would answer my
call to return
now folks that’s what this week of
prayer is about that’s what all of our
praying intercession is when God comes
to a city
and folks I believe this with all my
heart
God didn’t need just another building he
didn’t need just another Full House
in the city
he came here and he’s waking up other
churches and he has a purpose to it
it has to do with his last call has to
do with his very Divine Purpose
folks are sitting right now in in in a
very clear example of the warring of the
Holy Ghost he wooed you
he stirred you he took you out of your
apostasy and you’re backsliding you were
compromising many of you are living in
sin and God shook you up he put the
finger in your face and he said come I
love you and you responded
and the same holy ghost that brought you
wants to bring a home multitude
Hallelujah
folks when the Lord comes we’ve got to
say Here I Am Lord send me
now the second issue
there’s a reason why I believe church is
not ready for Revival
we’re not ready for Revival because
we’re overwhelmed by the darkness that
settled over our nation
and we’re overwhelmed by the fury
of the enemy there is a theory
in intensity in Sinners to date such as
in no other generation and there is a
Darkness that’s falling over this land
and the scripture says Behold The
Darkness shall cover the Earth and gross
Darkness shall cover the people a gross
Darkness means a darkness that you can
feel
it’s so intense so widespread the
darkness is thickening all over the land
there’s a Darkness folks there’s a
spiritual darkness in this city it’s in
the hearts of men
it’s in the hearts of men you can fly
over into uh Newark airport or you fly
over the city into LaGuardia or to
Kennedy Airport and you look at all you
see all the lights and you see the
skyscrapers and you you don’t get the
feel you don’t get the sense of the
darkness because the lights are just
blaring on all sides but get down off
the plane get in the cab come in walk
down Broadway and you feel the darkness
the darkness is heavy and it’s getting
heavier the spiritual Darkness blinding
the hearts and minds of people
but you know the Bible says God has a
part in that Darkness give glory to the
Lord Jeremiah 13 16 give glory to the
Lord your God before he caused darkness
and before your feet stumble in the dark
on the dark mountains and while you look
for light he turns it into the shadow of
death and he makes it gross Darkness he
makes it gross Darkness you see when
people are set on their sin
when
they reject God and they are so given to
their sin driven to Darkness the Bible
says
there’s a Darkness Allowed by the spirit
of God that falls over the hearts and
minds of men Pastor Carter speaks about
the blindness that comes
David said of the wicked let their eyes
be darkened that they see not
and they shall looked upon the Earth
under the Earth and behold trouble in
darkness dimness and anguish they shall
be driven to Darkness
and folks you if you don’t believe
that that’s what’s happening now the
devil has come down with great wrath
knowing his time is short and he’s
driving his people to iniquity they are
driven
look at their eyes as they they’re on
their way to make their connection look
at their eyes when they stumble out of
the bars look at their eyes as they’re
running to and fro looking for their
pleasure look at their eyes you can feel
the darkness they are driven to Darkness
the scripture says
folks
I came to New York City 35 years ago
there were places in the city even in
Harlem 40 years ago they didn’t even
lock the doors
when you compare
the iniquity today
with what we saw 40 years ago 35 40
years ago
the darkness is a million times thicker
than it was then
it’s incredible I remember 35 years ago
I first came here uh I traveled all the
United States in meetings I would go out
every weekend all over the United States
and I would warn people in Iowa and in
Missouri in Oklahoma and all the
southern states and I would I would go
to some of the small towns and cities
and there’d be thousands of people
coming I was warning them that drugs
would come and sweep over the land and
that even the smallest town would be
affected there’d be pushers in their
schools in the smallest towns I warned
of homosexuals parading the streets
naked I I warned of nudity on television
and I was you thought I had come from
Mars
I was ridiculed I had pastors rebuked me
I had people literally come after my
meeting said no way God never let that
happen to America
now they call me a prophet
40 years later
you know why because some of those same
people rebuked me they’re sitting in
front of that Babylonian idiot boss who
walks in R-rated movies they’re watching
the very nudity I prophesied they’re
some of those people rebuked me their
own kids and grandkids their
grandparents now and their grandkids are
on drugs
I’m going to ask you a question
you know the darkness that’s coming and
folks if it’s this bad imagine what’s
going to be like 10 years from now he
said the Lord Terry can you imagine the
darkness in this city the darkness
falling over the land when you have
homosexuals now in the highest
government offices taking power when you
see the darkness coming from all sides
folks the message is this God’s people
must never be intimidated by the
darkness they must not be intimidated by
the fury of the N.A
do you think for one minute
that the darkness is going to diminish
the light
do you think the darkness is going to
Quail and squash the light of the Gospel
of Jesus I don’t care how dark it gets
the Bible says he’s going to rise and
shine in the Darkness
yea the darkness hideth not from thee
but the night shineth as the day the
darkness and the light are both alike to
thee for the Lord knoweth what is in the
Darkness
and the light dwelleth with him
and the people that walk in darkness
shall see a great light
dwell in the land of the shadow of death
upon them the light shall shine
we’re in the shadow of death the land of
death a land of Darkness
but he said that’s where he’s going to
shine his light the brightest
folks we are not to be overwhelmed by
any Darkness I don’t care how many
homosexuals in their gay parades will
look in your face and curse your Christ
I don’t care how many Muslim temples
they build in this land
I don’t care how Wild it gets on the
streets I don’t care yes we care but the
darkness that’s coming no matter how
intense no matter what happens
we’ll never stop the light
[Applause]
we can expect God in the worst Darkness
to bring forth the most glorious light
Isaiah 61-2 arise Shine for the light is
coming the glory of the Lord is risen
upon thee for Behold The Darkness shall
cover the Earth and gross darkness of
the people but
the Lord shall arise upon thee and His
glory shall be seen upon thee and the
Gentiles shall come to thy light and the
Kings will come to the brightness of thy
Rising
glory be to God he says in the midst of
the darkness I’m going to come forth
with bright light
a light is shining on Times Square
and it’s not the light of Broadway it’s
the light of Jesus Christ to the power
of the Holy Ghost
[Applause]
Church gets Your Eyes Off the Darkness
get your eyes off the sin get your eyes
off the fury of those that are are so
blatant and so uh violent today get your
eyes off of that it’s not going to stop
the light
we are not going home in the darkness
we’re going home clouded with light
shining a fusing with light
Hallelujah
you’ve got to believe when you come to
this church you were on fire and you are
light in everywhere you go in this
Darkness your candle not on a candle
somebody gonna be a thousand what bulbs
shining everywhere you go Hallelujah
thirdly
the church is not ready for Revival
because of a weak faith and God’s
willingness and power to save Wicked
vile sinners
now you say well that’s not case here
now see God put his finger right on the
problem with Judah they doubted his
willingness and power to redeem and save
a people that were so entrenched in
apostasy and idolatry in fact according
to Jeremiah 18 12 they said there’s no
hope
so we will walk after our own plans and
we will everyone do the imagination of
his evil heart they said huh we’re too
great a sinner we have gone too far
there’s no turning back
and this this is what Judah this
estranged wife
has said in her heart
well I walked away from him
I’ve left him on my own volition
and now I’m deep in my sin
so deep I can’t get out it’s hopeless
it’s hopeless and folks I still have to
fight with this God helps me on it more
and more it’s being less of a problem
but after all the years when I where
I’ve seen guys like Nikki Cruz and sunny
and all of these Israel and all these
gang leaders and drug addicts saved
and and hundreds and hundreds have been
saved and then I’ll suddenly be on the
street and I’ll be face to face with
somebody that’s half crazy high
drunk cursing
and I’ll say
I want to pray with you you need Jesus
and the hell go down but there’s
something in my heart said oh God I know
you’re saved Nikki I know you saved
Israel I know you’ve saved hundred but
this one

and there’s something Naggy said look
God this guy’s hopeless this guy is
hoping some of you look at your family
some of you you may be married to an
atheist sister
when you look at that man and he is so
mean and he’s so Godless
there’s something in you say oh no God’s
saving all around me I see people
getting saved but my my husband’s
different or my boy is different my
daughter’s different my daughter’s so
hard
my family’s so hard my family’s
different
you know God comes to Judah Judah is
sitting in her hopelessness and inner
adultery then in her heart a tree
and he says to her I’m coming to I’m
calling you now I’m asking you is my
hands short at all that it cannot redeem
that would be short means cut off
chopped off
he says
tell me
when the enemy chopped off my hand
that’s what he’s saying to the church
he’s saying to us come on Church you
know my right hand open up the Red Sea
you know my right hand has kept the
promises faithful all through this book
you’ve seen that I sing to the uttermost
tell me
first of all when did I divorce you I
didn’t divorce you I still love you I’m
coming after you now you say it’s
hopeless
tell me when did the devil chop off my
mighty arm
when did God get chopped off
when did I lose my power to redeem
to save
he said
do I have no power to deliver
he said church when did I lose my power
you talk about all the revivals in the
past and all the things I’ve done I’ve
started whole Nations when did I lose
that power
tell me when what date give me the date
and the time and the plate when did I
lose my power
folks that has to grip our hearts oh God
you can save anybody you can save Wall
Street you can save the worst homosexual
you can save any Muslim in this city you
can save my family you can save anybody
your arm is not short you can deliver
and redeem anybody
you see we’re not ready for Revival when
we still limit God
he’s not willing that your family perish
I don’t care if your sister your brother
your unsafe loved one
has rejected every call you’ve ever made
they’ve turned you away they think
you’re fanatic or they think you’re
crazy
I don’t care if it’s going on for 25
years don’t you dare give up don’t you
dare limit God don’t you dare think that
his hand’s been chopped off
Hallelujah
you see when the spirit was up poured in
Jerusalem at the beginning
thousands were saved multitudes were
saved all at one time multitudes came
and they were added deity to the church
such as should be added and folks in
recent years when the Holy Ghost had
been poured out like in China reports
coming out of China are incredible
you see if Jesus is coming soon
and he’s looking for a harvest and he
prophesies that multitudes are going to
be saved even from the land of synonym
which is China from Isaiah 49 12 there’s
a prophecy clearly that multitudes are
coming from sin
us China
and God’s doing that right now
multitudes are being saved the same is
beginning to happen now in parts of
India that that’s happening uh in Russia
right now and God has to do that he just
if he’s there’s going to be great
harvest he’s just going to have to come
down on Nations powerfully and bring
multitudes into the kingdom
but usually
God works and especially here through
the church
he says he’s going to work one at a time
and two at a time
I’m going to read to you Jeremiah just
listen Jeremiah 3 14 turn old
backsliding children saith the Lord
and this is in the same chapter
for I am married to you
and I will take you one of a city and
two of a family and I’ll bring it to
Zion
now folks in this next week of prayer
when we’re praying and seeking God
yes we’re going to pray for Mongolia
we’ll pray for China we’ll pray for
India we’ll pray for Nations yes we’ll
pray that God
sweep many into his kingdom throughout
pouring to the Holy Spirit
but folks I believe God wants you to
focus in on your family
if you really believe Jesus is about to
come
you’re gonna you there’s nothing
you can have nothing else but this
urgency in you
because one day soon you’re going to
stand before God
and you and I have to answer
for standing in the gap
we’ve got to pray and lay hold of the
horns in the altar of God we’ve got to
pray God send conviction on my family
save my son save my daughter folks the
pastors themselves can’t do it you’ve
got to pray such conviction to them that
when they do come to this church no
matter what’s preached from the pulpit
God will have so wooed them by his
Spirit they’ll be prepared to receive
you can break down the strongholds of
the devil in their life pulling down the
stronghold of drugs and alcohol and
apostasy and idolatry you can break down
those strongholds through your prayers
there was a in closing I was thinking
there was a popular song
a number of years ago Raindrops Keep
Falling On My Head
that’s exactly what we’re going to pray
he said you’re going to come last days
is rain the latter rain
pray Holy Ghost raindrops on your family
they’ll be walking around no don’t even
know what to them the rain is going to
fall pray oh God send some drops on my
son something drops on my wife put
raindrops on the head Holy Ghost Reigns
us convict them save them
[Music]
asking the Lord reign in the time of the
latter rain so the Lord shall make
bright clouds and give them showers of
rain you can pray a thunderstorm over
your house over your family God sent
lightning and thunder and rain on that
house rain conviction
is my hand short
they can’t redeem
have I no power to deliver
do you remember these three things I
said
very quickly
do you believe God still wants to have
mercy on America in New York City how
many believe that
everybody the Holy Ghost is still wooing
do you believe he’s not yet divorced us
all right that’s number one settle it
God wants to pour out the Holy Ghost
he’s waiting he’s anxious nothing he
wants more than to pour out his holy
ghost
so the everywhere you go people want to
talk about God everywhere you go
suddenly you talk about God and where
people used to laugh walk away there’ll
be 10 or 12 gather around
everywhere the Lord begins to open the
doors because the raindrops start
falling
second
not intimidated by any sinner
you’re never intimidated by anybody who
looks too hard sounds too hard or smells
too hard
say my God’s able to do anything
not intimidated by the darkness
or by the fury of wicked sinners
let them stay mad
because when the rain starts falling
you Watch What Happens those who are
angry and screaming are going to break
down and be broken and weeping
when they see that which is coming upon
the face of the Earth
oh Hallelujah
Hallelujah
you ready to pray rain down
not fire of judgment but rain the
judgment’s coming yes it is it’s at the
door
but while we still have time we’re going
to believe God hallelujah folks
I didn’t have time to run this bypass to
Carter yet it was our staff
but I slipped out of the service a few
months went back in prayer Holy Spirit
was speaking to my heart
that sometime
in the spring
April May I don’t know
I feel Lord wants us to have a
month-long Revival
every night but Monday it’s Saturday
night included
and the only guest speaker would be the
Holy Ghost
just the pastors and the Holy Ghost
and a whole month
where we pray
for a great harvest of Souls
would you stand up and deliver what God
tells us from our heart but a whole
month
how many of you
are ready and willing to come to God’s
house
every night but Monday for a whole month
stand to your feet
stand to your feet balcony the main
floor
how many willing to invite your family
your sons and your daughters and your
family this whole that whole month
let’s all stand let everybody stand
folks I I believe God’s about everything
we’ve been praying for is about to break
forth
the Holy Ghost has come
Hallelujah
if you can’t sense that you don’t know
him
if you’ve been walking with you can tell
it
and say oh God don’t pass my family by
and you know what you know if you have
children here in this church
just children that are in children’s
church
any anyone from Toddlers up
will you ask God in this time
the next five or six months while God’s
moving in this church in such a glorious
way will you ask God to establish your
children
establish them
that they will see and experience the
moving of God’s holy spirit in
children’s church and in this church so
that God touches every child that’s what
happens first he starts himself and
every child is touched every teenager is
touched your family is going to be
touched
Hallelujah
ask God to open up those that you’re
praying for God open up my family open
up my unsaved loved ones that I when
this time when I invite them to go with
me they’ll come if they live in some
other state God put them under
conviction same raindrops in Ohio Iowa
California Puerto Rico South America
wherever it may be all over the world
God sends somebody to my unsaved loved
ones and I I would love to have letters
read of people who come forth up to the
microphone and say I want to read the
testimony I want to give a praise report
we started praying for my family my aunt
down in Jamaican I just got a letter
Somebody went to her and she got saved
and we want to hear that just pouring
out of God’s people hallelujah folks
this is not hype that’s a promise of God
these promises are on call we’re going
to call them down
they’re on call
Lord these promises are on call they’re
not waiting for some future generation
therefore Our Generation therefore 1995
they’re for Times Square Church they’re
for us and we claimed every promise of
God pour out your spirit in New York
City pour it out on this church poured
out on our families
Hallelujah
this is the conclusion of the message
