Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.”

1 John 5:10 “…he that believeth not God hath made him a liar…”
“Some pray for the outpouring of the Spirit/revival without expecting to receive it. “He that believeth not God hath made Him a liar…”(1 John 5:10) This, then, is the greatest sin of all. What an insult, what a blasphemy, to accuse God of lying!” －Charles G. Finney
“We believe what every person in the world needs the most is: the Pure Gospel and revival. We believe if true Christians repent and diligently pray for revival, we can have revival in any city of the world. (Luke 11:13, 24:49; Acts 1:8; Acts 2:16-18, 33, 38-39 ; Acts 3:19; John 12:32; John 16:8; Isaiah 44:3; Psalm 2:8; 2 Chronicles 7:14-15…)
“Worldwide revival is absolutely needed in order to truly win souls for Jesus on a massive scale!” -Johnson and Pearl
“The Bible was NOT meant to be just a history book that stirs us to “admire" revival and God’s past miracles.

11 For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.
2 Corinthians 3:9-11 Amplified Bible
“For if the ministry that brings condemnation [the old covenant, the Law] has glory, how much more does glory overflow in the ministry that brings righteousness [the new covenant which declares believers free of guilt and sets them apart for God’s special purpose]!
10 Indeed, what had glory [the Law], in this case no longer has glory because of the glory that surpasses it [the gospel].
11 For if that [Law] which fades away came with glory, how much more must that [gospel] which remains and is permanent abide in glory and splendor!
The ministry of the New Testament is more glorious than the old!
The ministry of the New Testament is more glorious than the old!
The ministry of the New Testament is more glorious than the old!

3 When You did awesome things for which we did not look, You came down, The mountains shook at Your presence.
4 For since the beginning of the world, Men have not heard nor perceived by the ear,
Nor has the eye seen any God besides You, Who acts for the one who waits for Him.
Heavenly Father,
Lord of all, before I ask You to rend the heavens, and come down to America (and the world) in revival glory and power, before I ask the nations to tremble at Thy presence and repent, I ask You to rend the selfishness, prayerlessness, and laziness, and lack of love for souls OUT OF modern day Christians (me included).
Consume us with Your fire and glory, conform us to the image of Christ, to be more and more like Christ everyday, to bear fruits of holiness, to diligently crucify the flesh daily, and to persistently pray for revival or the Outpouring of the Spirit, and demand the fullness of the Father’s Promise, all powers from on high, all the Gift of the Spirit. Whatever it takes, Lord! Grant us ww revival before the Rapture and as many souls saved as possible without violating Bible prophecy. I ask for at least a billion souls truly saved in ww revival before the Rapture. I know it’s not too hard for Your, Abba Father, and my Lord Jesus! In Jesus’s name I ask and pray!
