Revival Praying

Every time in the history of the church revival has come, it has followed extensive prayer and seeking of God's face by some of His children. When we study the history of God's work on earth, we will always find faithful praying saints, often hidden, holding on before Him in prayer, pleading for God to revive His people. . . .


God requires more than casual prayers for revival. He wants His people to hunger and thirst for His mighty working. To seek God's face is far more than occasionally mentioning revival in our prayer. It involves repeated and prolonged prayer. . . A revival seeker is eager to obey God in everything.

"Glory to You"

"GLORY TO YOU" Written 1,700 Years Ago




from Jesus Daily on Facebook







What shall I give you, Lord, in return for all Your kindness?



Glory to You for Your love.



Glory to You for Your mercy.



Glory to You for Your patience.



Glory to You for forgiving us all our sins.



Glory to You for coming to save our souls.



Glory to You for Your incarnation in the virgin's womb.



Glory to You for Your bonds.



Glory to You for receiving the cut of the lash.



Glory to You for accepting mockery.



Glory to You for Your crucifixion.



Glory to You for Your burial.



Glory to You for Your resurrection.



Glory to You who were preached to men and women.



Glory to You in whom they believed.



Glory to You who were taken up into heaven.



Glory to You who sit in great glory at the Father's right hand.



Glory to You whose will it is that the sinner should be saved through Your great mercy and compassion.







Ephraem of Syria (ca. 306-373 AD)

"When the Hour Was Come"

MAUNDAY THURSDAY MEDITATION: "And when the hour was come, He sat down and the twelve apostles with Him." "When the hour was come" -- that was the most wonderful hour. There never was an hour, never will be an hour like that hour. What hour was it ? It was an hour of the passing of creation under the blood. It was an hour of destruction of demon power. It was an hour appointed of life coming out of death. It was an hour when all that ever lived came under a glorious covering of the blood. It was an hour when all the world was coming into emancipation by the blood. It was an hour in the world's history when it emerged from dark chaos, a wonderful hour! Praise God for that hour! Was it a dark hour? It was a dark hour for Him, but a wonderful light dawned for us. It was tremendously dark for the Son of Man, but praise God He came through it.




-- Smith Wigglesworth

We Have a Big God

We have a big God.  We have a wonderful Jesus.  We have a glorious Comforter.  God's canopy is over you and will cover you at all times, preserving you from evil.  Under His wings shalt thou trust.  The Word of God is living and powerful and in its treasures you will find eternal life.  If you dare trust this wonderful Lord, the Lord of life, you will find in Him everything you need.

--Smith Wigglesworth, 1922

These Things Are Possible for Me

I am glad that Paul was a man. I am glad that Jesus was a Man. I am glad that Daniel was a man, and I am also glad that John was a man. You ask, "Why?" Because I see that whatever God has done for other men, He can do for me. And I fnd God has done such wonderful things for other men that I am always on the expectation that these things are possible for me. -- Smith Wigglesworth

We Never Saw It Like That

And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion. --Mark 2:12 If anything stirs me in my life it is such words as these, "We never saw it on this fashion." Something ought to happen all the time so that people will say, "We never saw it like that." If there is anything that God is dissatisfied with, it is stationary conditions. So may people stop on the threshold, when God, in His great plan, is inviting them into His treasury. Oh, this treasury of the Most High, the unsearchable riches of Christ, this divine position which God wants to move us into so that we are altogether a new creation. -- Smith Wigglesworth
