Going to these prayer meeting

Mix of God Bless Me, Thanking God for the benefits we receive for following him
Repentance

God is sharing with me about revival

Starts here...
Starts when Gods people Repent
It is not so much about “them” as it is about me
Pew of Reckoning
It is open all the time.
It is only for personal get me closer to God prayer
It is not for anything else— healing of loved ones, etc.
I will pray for those things but that is not what this pew of reckoning is for.
It starts right here as a group of individuals, individually and corporately dedicating every ounce of our being to the one who created every ounce of our being - not because of the blessings we will most definitely receive, but because it is right.
We often have a tinted view of revival as a time of glory and joy and swelling numbers queuing to enter the churches. That is only part of the story. Before the glory and joy, there is conviction; and that begins with the people of God. There are tears of godly sorrow. There are wrongs to put right, secret things...to be thrown out, and bad relationships, hidden for years, to be repaired openly. If we are not prepared for this, we had better not pray for revival. - Brian Edwards

Today, under that truth, I want to share with you how to get to your personal revival.

The Fun Stuff

Acts 2:1
Acts 2:1–12 NIV
When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken. Utterly amazed, they asked: “Aren’t all these who are speaking Galileans? Then how is it that each of us hears them in our native language? Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs—we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!” Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, “What does this mean?”

My Personal

Moment of Salvation - Calling into the ministry
Being Cursed (Hardees) and Released from fear
Various
Starting of the prayer group
Altar Call Countdown
Praying for People and they fall down
Almost 30 years of God doing incredible things - not because I am amazing but because he is amazing.
Hinging on - what every you have - good or bad - I will follow.
I have decided to follow Jesus
Though non go with me...
the world behind me - the cross before me

The Message

Most famous speaker in the us at the time

Does not challenge me to die to self and follow Him
2 Timothy 4:3–4 NIV
For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
2 tim 4:
