Heart_Song, you did very well. I,took some notes and compared them with yours, thinking surely I may have something you missed, but you had them all!

God bless you for doing this...wish we could be there...

Don Currin is now preaching.

Romans 11:33. Oh the depth of the riches . . .

The slowness of God's ways. Churches are buying into marketing strategies. We are not recognizing the ways of the Lord. Lack of understanding of God's slowness is part of the problem. We are weary of waiting.

God's Word never alters. We are taught that if things are not happening, we need to make them happen - this is wrong.

Why has God taken so long to respond? Why is God taking so long in sending revival?

1) To enlarge our understanding of His character. He is sovereign, we are not. He is in control. We can not twist His arm. We need to be content with that -

2) To test our faith in His word. To try our obedience to His written word. Saul did not wait. Waiting is very difficult for prideful people. Our fears for ourselves make us step out too soon.

3) To bring glory to Himself. John 11. Lord if you had been here . . . why was Christ so slow? How will God get more glory - healing the sick or raising the dead? HE should be our contentment. Luke 2:25.

Revival is not a result of our merit, but God's mercy. Revival always begins in the heart of God.
Jonathan Edwards was not even looking for revival and the Lord sent it. There are several examples of God sending revival when it was least expected - this was the result of people being focused on God rather than revival.

Abraham with Haggar is an example of what happens when we don't wait.

What should we do while we wait?

1) Learn to define spiritual success from a spiritual point of view. Walk in faithfulness before Him. If you are in Christ you are going to bear fruit. Revival is not your chief passion in life - it is Christ. Real success is doing the will of God regardless of the consequences - even if God is not sending revival.

2) Rest completely in the Lord's timing.

3) Learn to find your contentment in Christ alone. Philippians 4:11.

Some are making spiritual awakening a god.

Isn't Jesus enough? HE is the end.

Ralph Sutera is speaking - actually another man is giving his testimony at the moment, about God sending revival to a church that didn't ask for it, his name is Bob.


deltadom, I haven't heard anything about a podcast.

 Re:

That testimony from Bob is inspring! It blessed me!

BTW, HeartSong, good job on those notes - I do not think I will have to take notes- just come back and read yours, that way I can concentrate better on what is said! On the other hand, I just might change my mind - after all, I am a woman and can easily do that! lol

I was just thinking about this before I logged on. It is difficult for me to just sit and listen (in school I had to draw pictures so that I hear what was being said). I am usually out walking when I listen to sermons, but I can't do that with the Conference so I had planned on doing other things as I listened - I think God has me doing this so that I stay on task . . .
