Sometimes it's the small things in life that lead to much bigger things in your walk with God.

Ever experience the glory of the Lord? What better way to share than from your very own life?! "He makes me lie down in green pastures he leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake." Psalm 23:2-3

For many of us, the famous hymn, "Onward Christian Soldiers" is just a song, not a rallying cry. Put Ephesians 6:10 into practice! "We are to put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes, for our struggle is not against flesh and blood."

A reading of the classic poem from Dyker Heights, Brooklyn

Do YOU want to produce the fruits of the Spirit and live an uncommon life? Sara Whitten shares how to set yourself apart for special purposes and inherit eternal life.

God disciplines those whom He loves (Hebrews 12:6), and that means, as a "vinedresser," he corrects and prunes us to make us better, more complete, and more like Him.

A special note from the filmmaker, Fritz Feick: I was reading about ‘the fruit of the Spirit’ and came across an article that cited an unexpected scriptural reference: Luke 13:6-9 "The Parable of the Barren Fig Tree" And he told this parable: “A man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none. And he said to the vinedresser, ‘Look, for three years now I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and I find none. Cut it down. Why should it use up the ground? And he answered him, ‘Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and put on manure. Then if it should bear fruit next year, well and good; but if not, you can cut it down.” Reading these words, I suddenly realized this parable was all about me, except for the fact that instead of 3 years of not bearing fruit, I had spent 40… 40 years of wandering in my own wilderness—a place of my own choosing. And then something happened. It was a miracle. I started reading the Bible from page 1, and God started pouring miracles, signs, wonders and gifts into my life. I was surrounded by God’s words and God’s people and then discovered the real meaning of love. And this film is a result.

Coming this winter, Fritz Feick and some very special guests will share some of the mysteries that are revealed to us by knowing the Holy Spirit personally. Jesus promised Him to us, and on Pentecost...the day when the Holy Spirit fell upon all the believers gathered in the upper room (see The Book of Acts Chapter 2)... the baptism in the Holy Spirit has been made available to all believers! The Holy Spirit brings us gifts, and in fact has selected a very special gift for YOU. It says in scripture: "to each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good." (1 Corinthians 12:7) The Holy Spirit empowers you and leads you into all the truth. Our goal, if you have never met Him, is to introduce Him to you-- and share what we have learned of His mysteries which He seeks to bring to light! This will be one film you won't want to miss!

#evangelism #revival #SavePakistan Revival begins when we ask the Lord to search our heart. David wrote in the Psalms, “Search me, O God, and know my heart! Test me, and know my thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” (Psalm 139:23,24) Gypsy Smith, a British evangelist, once preached to thousands of people. He died ten years before I was born. A delegation of people came to him and asked him how they could experience mass revival. And this is what he said: “Go home. Lock yourself in your room. Kneel down in the middle of the floor, and with a piece of chalk, draw a circle around yourself. There, on your knees, pray fervently and brokenly that God would start a revival within this chalk circle.” Max Lucado recently repeated this message. He asked: “Do we long to see a mighty and mysterious work of God among his children? Imitate the prayer of a country preacher. He was so distraught by the conditions of the world that he went outside and drew a big circle in the dirt. He stood in the center of the circle, and prayed: “Lord, bring revival… and begin… with everyone in this circle.” I want to share with you that building a circle and praying within it can be the key to revival. So I’m asking for your help. I’m asking you to find it in your hearts to film yourself with an Iphone or a camera, from different angles even, and make a circle. Draw it on the ground. Draw it with flowers or tree limbs or whatever you so desire, but make a circle. Step into it, and pray these words: “Lord, bring revival… and begin… with everyone in this circle.” I did it. I have been clearing wood—trees… bushes… around my house. And as I cut them, I formed a circle around my wood chipper. It’s actually my brother-in-law’s wood chipper and tractor that I borrowed. And I went out to the tractor. And I stood up on top of the seat. And I prayed this prayer: “Lord, bring revival… and begin… with everyone in this circle.” I pray that scores of people from around the world will join me in this prayer, that they’ll film themselves and they’ll send the video to me so that I can incorporate it into our outreach to Uganda and to Pakistan. Lord, bring revival! And may it begin with us! Thank you. Please share your video prayer!
