Revival Begins When We Preach The Gospel

Lord Requires Active Faith To Bring Change In Others

"So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" (Mark 16:17-18 NKJ).

Short Vision by Brother Glenn: 

Date: 04/07/2026

Before sharing the vision, kindly allow me to give background information. A few years ago, the Lord Jesus Christ took Charis to HELL, and the person she was shown was my wife's uncle (her mother's brother). He pleaded with Charis to go warn his family, and after receiving this revelation. I was burdened with a desire to preach the gospel to his family. After several months, the Lord answered our prayers, and we received an open door. I preached the gospel there in the fire of the Holy Spirit, and no one heeded the invitation to receive the Lord.  

Now, a few months after her passing (wife of the man whom Charis saw in HELL), the Lord showed her to me in a Revelation. When she saw me, she asked me to bring one of her sons to live with us because the Lord showed her how we, as a family, are praying together in the morning and our Bible fellowship in the evening before bedtime. Like the account of Lazarus and the rich man (Luke 16:19-31), they did not believe our testimony; instead, they accused us of lying and that we are making up stories. Brethren, we value our souls. If we had kept quiet about the things we received from God, we would be pitied, and if we lie about Revelations from the Lord, we ought to be pitied even more. Now, we are not lying about the things we have received from the Lord (1 Corinthians 15:15-19). 

Accept God's Command From Scripture With a Faith-Driven Conviction

Kindly allow me to add this, articles like this are very unpopular amongst Christians who wouldn't allow a conviction to change and challenge them. Brethren, as a Church, and broadly speaking, we have failed dismally in our work of Ministry. There are literally millions of Christians around the world (only God knows the true numbers), yet only a few are active in ministry work, but everyone has been called to work (Matthew 28:19-20).

As it is, we sing 'Revival' and pray for it, while the Word of God is the Sword of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17), thereby releasing Gifts and Power. It is Preaching Power that ushers in 'Revivals', repentance, and deliverance. "The word is near you, even in your mouth" (Romans 10:8 NIV). How long will we wait for the revival when we have already received the command to go preach the gospel, as in the above Scripture? Like I said in some previous articles, the Bible is addressing each individual believer, and individual believers are to respond to Scriptural command (Mark 16:16). 

Biblically, when King Josiah heard what the law of Moses said, including the Lord's pending Judgements, he was stricken with a conviction, and he tore his clothes, and obeyed his God and moved into action, and he was joined by others, and it resulted in a revival (2 Kings 22). Let us respond to the conviction from the Scriptures, use our faith, and God Almighty will work with us.

Let me share an experience I had while being in Bible school a few years ago. The teachings we received at Bible School emphasised total submission to pastoral authority, and only after the pastor's command are we sent out into ministry or to do witnessing. 

As it was, during our lectures, which were delivered by a local pastor who insisted that the lecture notes, which were authored by his senior pastor, were accurate and shouldn't be questioned.  I humbly differed with that view and challenged it, which resulted in me being denied a Diploma in Ministry even after writing and passing the exams. After attempting to return the following year, the Lord commanded me not to return to Bible School. 

Furthermore, one evening, when we went out to witness, we were invited by a Brother who attended Bible School with me, and he asked me who commanded me to witness without pastoral authority. I replied and said that I was commanded by the Lord through the Bible. Upon hearing that, he angrily asked me to leave his house. However, a few years later, he realised that his calling was not from his pastor but from the Lord, and today he is a street evangelist walking around with a wooden cross with a banner inviting people to the Lord Jesus Christ...HALELUJAH!

In conclusion, let us preach, witness, and fellowship like the 10 wise virgins.

Blessed Grace

THE SPIRIT LEADING OR THE NATURAL MAN LEADING?

Walking By Faith
 
"For we walk by Faith and not by sight"(2 Corinthians 5:7 NIV)

VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE: Dear Brethren, Please pray for Brother Glenn and his family, their daughter Charis was attacked and viciously attacked this past Saturday (10 June 2017) resulting in some internal injuries that could affect her in the long run. Also, as you know, we recently attended a funeral of my father in law, the Lord has revealed to us his eternal destiny and due to multiple attacks from Satan (1 Thessalonians 2:18), I am unable to report on the visions and the entire testimony. Therefore, this will only be reported in next week Monday, God willing (James 4:15). 

Some time ago, I had a conversation with a brother regarding Abraham and Lot. To start with, Abraham was rich with many cattle sheep goats and Lot had to leave with his animals too but he chose "the green pastures or the well-watered land", while Abraham went to an unknown land but by faith, following as he followed God's instructions wherever he went.

Now, we see in general mostly people are attracted to what they see and look good, they just go for it; it is not necessarily something acquired by faith but a compulsion to get quickly with the eyes of the world it looks good, sounds good and very tempting good to the eyes to enjoy!

Similarly, Abraham was not so doing the same thing, He actually chose to follow the Lord request by FAITH only by Faith He chose to go North South East West wherever he was led He did not see the land but only a promise from God's mouth and decided to walk by faith and he got the best for his people.

How many of us chose the path of Lot but are not prepared to meet faith, rather worldly senses perceptions, which will lead us the wrong way.

It makes sense that faith always pays off it does not matter how long it will take to get us out of problems, situations difficulties, our real trust should be faith in God mighty.

Abraham chose the good part not Lot. Its seems like Lot was attracted by what He saw but later we found out that the part he was near Sodom and Gomorrah. As it is, it things might appear greener on the other 'side' but it may not necessarily be the best choice.

Therefore, let us be wise and trust the Spirit of Might and Faith in us to lead us the right way of the Lord Jesus Christ let us not choose the easy way, but what God ordain in our life, am sure He will make it through and sort your life out as you learn to listen and obey what He has to say.

Perseverance prove our belonging and faith in what we believe , Jesus said when you ask something believe you have received it and it will be done for you.He also mentioned something powerful , that if we have no doubt in our hearts when asking something, we will be able to achieve what he has done to the fig tree that dried up before his Disciples (Matthew 21:18-22; John 15:7).

The life in the Spirit is linked to faith, we must not let the world dictate our lives rather we should maintain our strength and determination in the Lord Jesus, because He said we will move mountains and do greater things than He has done. Of Course this is though his power and might it is his Holy name that makes things come true and achievable.

FINAL WORD : Let us not be tempted by the things of this world but be led by the Holy Ghost in all situations even without seeing clearly where we are going this is called ABRAHAM' S FAITH or FAITH IN GOD, Perseverance plays a major role seeing what we believe coming true. Please read Genesis 13:1-18

If you were blessed by this message, kindly share it. We would also like to encourage those who are not Saved yet to consider repenting and accepting the Lord in their lives by praying this  Prayer of Sincere Repentance. For any questions or comments on this article or our ministry, please contact us.

Let us not have the eyes of the flesh but instead the eyes of the Spirit and Faith.

Be blessed

WAITING FOR A BETTER COUNTRY

Faith And Endurance To Reach God's Country

Our Brother Glenn is running some errands, thus we are pleased to share again a message with you which was prayerfully prepared by our Brother Patrice from the beautiful Country of France. Let us learn from the Lord through his message this week.

“If they had been thinking about the country they had left, they could have gone back. But they were waiting for a better country—a heavenly country. So God is not ashamed to be called their God, because he has prepared a city for them“ (Hebrew 11:15 NIV).

-Just before I begin read Hebrew 11:11-39 and then read this article as follow, below I have put in red some very significant words from the Lord in our walk with Him.

The Title concerns our Heavenly home, as we read the chapters we have a clue of how our Father in Heaven wants us to live. We definitely know that the flesh cannot be overcome as an ordinary man, but we need Faith or an extraordinary faith to do might works.Without the Help of the Holy Ghost we could never see Heaven, because it is God’s goodness that works within us, for each one of us.

It is absolutely important that we base our christian life on Faith like all our Fathers in the faith as Paul described it in Hebrew Chapters 11 and 12, they were a great example to us, and triumphed in Faith and were helped to overcome their situations-
Everyone of us are going through something and everyone of us should keep our focus on the Light of Christ and Heaven.Paul mentioned it many times , “set your eyes on things above not on the earth” (Colossians 3:2 NIV).

Strengthening Our Relationship With The Lord

So definitely all we need to develop is a relationship with our God like Elijah Elisha Moses David and even more like our Lord Jesus Christ imitating them in faith and actions-

Our relationship can be so strong and yet sometimes so weak because of our failures our shorts coming and sin.

Until the day we shall depart from earth, we will need to continue to fight the good fight, as Jesus said.

The good fight is our own flesh and for that we need to pass some time in the word and eat the word (speaking it and memorising it) digesting it (understand it )and practicing it in love toward others.

There no greater than love, and love overcome people who are nagging others or put their fingers at others finding their fault and using their faults to destroy them.

The practical Christian life is very important it will help us to overcome also our limitations or sins, looking after someone make us to sacrifice our own selfish ways and develop spiritual virtues and overcoming.

What are the great things or pleasures to find the problem in others ’ life ? while us are so miserable sometimes , this is called a lack of understanding and misjudgment-

Rather I would prefer imitating God than human beings, because our God is full of compassion, mercy, and great Love-

Why then wouldn’t we want to be the same..the reason is that us people need to grow, and should become like our Lord Jesus Christ or God Himself, we will then never be limited and find ourselves full of love and strengthen by Him towards other.

The Holy Spirit is the One who help us, He encourages us to pray for our enemies, to love them, He also show us things to come and reminds all that Jesus has said concerning him.

What a wonderful Lord we serve, let’s believe for deliverance in our daily lives with perseverance to receive breakthroughs as we are willing to follow him whatever situation we find ourselves in-

This earth is only a motion, we are here today but tomorrow? we don’t know.

So let us live for the day enjoying every moment that God gives us and taking advantage to thank him and be part of the reaching out toward people so they may have the opportunity to receive salvation for their souls and a Heavenly Home waiting for them as they decide to put all their effort and Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ-

Never look back and keep focus on things above, Paul said in his letter,  In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood (Hebrew 12:4)

Think how our Hight Priest Jesus is faithful and here asking us to persevere in Holiness thou it is not an easy task.
Be strong and very courageous have a personal intimacy with Jesus and be truthful to him-

Edifying Scriptural References

Hebrew 11:1

11:1 Faith means being sure of the things we hope for and knowing that something is real even if we do not see it. 2 Faith is the reason we remember great people who lived in the past.

Hebrew 12:1-6


God Is like a Father

You are struggling against sin, but your struggles have not yet caused you to be killed. You have forgotten the encouraging words that call you his children:

“My child, don’t think the Lord’s discipline is worth nothing,

and don’t stop trying when he corrects you.

The Lord disciplines those he loves,

and he punishes everyone he accepts as his child.”
Proverbs 3:11–12

Be Careful How You Live

.. But you have come to Mount Zion,
to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem. You have come to thousands of angels gathered together with joy.

You have come to the meeting of God’s firstborn
children whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God, the judge of all people, and to the spirits of good people who have been made perfect.  You have come to Jesus, the One who brought the new agreement from God to his people, and you have come to the sprinkled blood[e] that has a better message than the blood of Abel. So be careful and do not refuse to listen when God speaks. Others refused to listen to him when he warned them on earth, and they did not escape. So it will be worse for us if we refuse to listen to God who warns us from heaven.  When he spoke before, his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Once again I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.” The words “once again” clearly show us that everything that was made—things that can be shaken—will be destroyed. Only the things that cannot be shaken will remain.
So let us be thankful, because we have a kingdom that cannot be shaken. We should worship God in a way that pleases him with respect and fear,  because our God is like a fire that burns things up.

Do you fear God? If so, make your commitment today to Christ the Lord. Do you want to give your works an eternal meaning? To begin a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, please repent and start by praying this Prayer of Sincere Repentance.

Godly Regards
