Sermon - Revive Us Again

Folks, we're living in the last days. It's time to get revived. It's time to seek the Lord with all of our hearts. President Bush just referred to World War III in a speech. Both Russia and the US have been carrying out war games lately. Russia and China have formed an alliance lately. Iran and Syria are allies of Russia and China, and so is the Sudan. We have a very militant administration in the US now that is spending record amounts on military "defense," which maybe should be called offense. The United States has recently completed a miliary defense "missile shield" in Eastern Europe which basically gives the US first strike capability against Russia. Retired Colonel Bob Bowman says former presidents Nixon and Reagan both gave the orders to attack the old Soviet Union, but the military officers both times refused to execute the orders, considering them to be illegal. And it is rumored that President Bush has already given orders a couple of times to attack Iran but on both occasions the military refused to execute those orders. But President Bush continues to juggle his generals around, trying to find some who will execute his orders. He recently fired General Peter Pace and replaced him with Admiral Mellon, and Admiral Mellon says he believes in "just following orders." I'm not saying all of this to scare you, but just to let you know that we're living in very perilous times and it's time to seek the Lord with all of our hearts if we're ever going to.

It's time to start fasting. It's time to stay up all night praying. That's called watching and praying. We need to know for sure we're really saved. I think many people think they are that aren't really. We need to get these "politics demons" cast out where we think Christianity is somehow akin to just being a good member of the Republican Party. It's time to start following Jesus Christ according to what He said in the King James Version Bible and not most of these modern apostate preachers, ministers and priests. it's time to start reading the King James version Bible again instead of these modern monstosities. We should go to the best church we can find but then seek the Lord on our own. God is responding to those who are repenting, confessing their sins, seeking for revival, and seeking for sanctification and the baptism with the Holy Spirit with evidence of speaking with other tongues.

Here's a suggested prayer to pray if you're serious. "Lord Jesus, I call on Your name right now. Save me to the uttermost. Heal me. Deliver me from demons and all the power of Satan. Baptize and fill me to overflowing with the Holy Ghost and fire with evidence of other tongues. Sanctify me. Wash me white as snow with Your precious blood. Make me a new creature in Jesus Christ, ready in every way to go home to You in heaven in Your soon coming rapture. Amen.
