The Embers Of Revival
The Embers Of Revival
“The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar; it shall never go out.” Lev 6:13
More particular than ever before, the Lord is set on pouring himself mightily upon us in this generation. But if there be a thousand and one prophecy of revival, or one and a hundred assurance of God’s outpour, if we fail to take our place in the place of prayer we will see nothing but the pervasive dryness, lukewarm-ness and emptiness. There is an ember of revival in our time that waits to be turned into fire by consistent and intense fanning of the embers through prevailing prayers.
I once lived in a local house where some women use wood-coal to make food, they set the charcoal on fire, then, the charcoal after a while through fire becomes embers; at that point if you want fire you can, through intense fanning of the embers. The embers after intense air turn to fire and burn. Relatively, the Lord has been kind upon us to grant us the embers of revival, but we have a duty of prayer. God is currently recruiting men, women and all who would care to be part of this august enterprise of revival through consistent prayer life.
Often times, the Lord makes demands of prayer upon us, but we end what the Lord intends to do by leaving the place of prayer earlier before His intention is birthed. The waiting and prayers of revival is not conventional nor the kind of traditional prayers we are used to; those who will excel in the enterprise of fanning the embers of revival in this season are (wo)men who will learn not to leave the secret place until the Lord sends revival. They are the (wo)men who will groan for souls in secret with strong tears that the Lord come in His power, they are those who will intercede for fallen and falling brethren, men who seeks nothing of the world but Jesus, men and women who seek God be enthroned in their days that souls may be saved from hell.
God is recruiting such men willing to wait in secret to fan the embers of revival, you can join today.
Meditation
They were gathered in an upper chamber,
as commanded by the risen Lord,
and the promise of the Father
there they sought with one accord,
when the Holy Ghost from heaven descended
like a rushing wind and tongues of fire:
so dear Lord, we seek Thy blessing,
come with glory now our hearts inspire.
Chorus:
Let the fire fall, let the fire fall,
let the fire from heaven fall;
we are waiting and expecting,
now in faith, dear Lord, we call;
let the fire fall, let the fire fall,
on Thy promise we depend;
from the glory of Thy presence
let the Pentecostal fire descend.
As Elijah we would raise the altar
for our testimony clear and true,
Christ the Saviour, loving Healer,
coming Lord, Baptizer too,
ever flowing grace and full salvation,
for a ruined race Thy love has planned;
for this blessed revelation,
for Thy written word we dare to stand.
‘This the covenanted promise given
to as many as the Lord shall call,
to the fathers and their children,
to Thy people, one and all;
so rejoicing in Thy word unfailing,
we draw nigh in faith Thy power to know –
come, O come, Thou burning Spirit,
set our hearts with heavenly fire aglow.
With a living coal from off Thy altar
touch our lips to swell Thy wondrous praise,
to extol Thee, bless, adore Thee,
and our songs of worship raise;
let the cloud of glory now descending
fill our hearts with holy ecstasy,
come in all Thy glorious fullness,
blessed Holy Spirit, have Thy way.
