RELEASING THE RIVER OF GOD’S GLORY (PART 2)

TEXT: Psalm 46:1-5

The great revivals and moves of God are not limited to the pages of the scriptures as we are the living epistles of God in our generation. Some people may never open the pages of the scriptures or come to church to meditate on the word of God but they cannot help but relate with us one way or the other and that is where the Lord depends on us to let the world see His glory.

CONTEMPLATION
 “Heaven knows we need a wave of God’s revival to restore
the church back to the place of passionate worship, and the
time is now.
If the glory of the latter will be greater than that of the
former, then there must be something more than what we
have ever seen or heard.” FFPW pg.164.
The glory of the former house was upon the temple of Solomon but the glory of the latter house is upon the individual that has become the temple of God indwelling us by the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 3:16). When the people of God come to acknowledge this then there will come an unusual move of God of great proportion. Gradually the understanding is spreading and there is this shift in the church of God that is giving birth to strange ministries that need no formal registration before they begin to affect a great multitude. The river of glory is flowing and the days of glory are here.

PRACTICAL ISSUES
That which only motivates men to seek their own materialistic gain is not qualified to be called revival. If the world can produce the same result it is not the revival we speak of. There is much more to it.

The prophet Elijah stood alone against the 450 prophets of Baal (1 kings 18:22) and at the end of the day the nation was restored back to God because when the people saw fire fall from heaven they fell down and worshiped saying “the Lord, He is God; the Lord He is God ” (1 Kings 18:39). When people encounter the glory they worship. Daily Devotional by Rev. Igho L. Y; the Glorious Fountain Ministries.
