Revival begins with you

#evangelism #revival #SavePakistan
Revival begins when we ask the Lord to search our heart.
David wrote in the Psalms, “Search me, O God, and know my heart!
Test me, and know my thoughts. See if there is any offensive way
in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” (Psalm 139:23,24)

Gypsy Smith, a British evangelist, once preached to thousands of
people. He died ten years before I was born. A delegation of people
came to him and asked him how they could experience mass revival.

And this is what he said:

“Go home. Lock yourself in your room. Kneel down in the middle
of the floor, and with a piece of chalk, draw a circle around yourself.
There, on your knees, pray fervently and brokenly that God would
start a revival within this chalk circle.”

Max Lucado recently repeated this message. He asked:

“Do we long to see a mighty and mysterious work of God among his children? Imitate the prayer of a country preacher. He was so distraught by the conditions of the world that he went outside and
drew a big circle in the dirt. He stood in the center of the circle, and
prayed:

“Lord, bring revival… and begin… with everyone in this circle.”

I want to share with you that building a circle and praying within it
can be the key to revival. So I’m asking for your help. I’m asking you
to find it in your hearts to film yourself with an Iphone or a camera,
from different angles even, and make a circle. Draw it on the ground.
Draw it with flowers or tree limbs or whatever you so desire, but make a circle. Step into it, and pray these words:

“Lord, bring revival… and begin… with everyone in this circle.”

I did it. I have been clearing wood—trees… bushes… around my house.
And as I cut them, I formed a circle around my wood chipper. It’s actually my brother-in-law’s wood chipper and tractor that I borrowed.
And I went out to the tractor. And I stood up on top of the seat.
And I prayed this prayer:

“Lord, bring revival… and begin… with everyone in this circle.”

I pray that scores of people from around the world will join me in this prayer, that they’ll film themselves and they’ll send the video to me
so that I can incorporate it into our outreach to Uganda and to
Pakistan. Lord, bring revival! And may it begin with us! Thank you.

Please share your video prayer!
