We now turn our attention to the greatest of all revival blessings —an incredible closeness with God Himself! For believers who often feel distant and find it hard to hear God’s voice, His voice often becomes clearer than those of spouses and best friends!
For those who struggle with areas of spiritual bondage or defeat, God’s power begins to flow like a river (John 7:38). Impossible mountains begin to move and long awaited answers at last arrive.
Churches and ministers long dry and weary suddenly burst forth with new life. God’s name is exalted and His kingdom explodes forward by evangelistic harvest!
While a revival flood certainly does not remove all suffering, God’s grace becomes so real we tend not to care. In fact, true revival often brings some level of persecution from those who oppose God. Yet truly revived believers are so full of God they actually rejoice in their persecutions and trials! (2 Corinthians 12:9; James 1:1-3)
If you are among the millions struggling to achieve a strong prayer life or intimacy with God, please take hope. Spiritual power is not out of reach and God definitely desires to help you remove your barriers. But even beyond personal blessings and closeness with God, there is another purpose greater than all other. That purpose is pleasing God and glorifying His name! Indeed, true revival is all about Him, not us.
