Revival His Way

If the Holy Spirit prefers to work through two or people who are committed to serving Jesus, then we need to find ways to get together with Christian friends. If the Holy Spirit wants to minister to another person, the pair of Christians will have to go to the place where they can find the unbeliever.

If the pair of Christians are not together, then the Holy Spirit cannot move. If the pair of believers are together but not in the same place as the unbeliever, the Holy Spirit cannot move. If the pair are in the right place, but they do not identify the person that the Holy Spirit wants to touch, the Holy Spirit will not be able to move.

Being led by the Holy Spirit is essential:

  • The two or three Christians that the Holy Spirit wants to work through must come together

  • They must come together at the time when the Holy Spirit leads.

  • They must go to where the Holy Spirit wants to move. That place will usually be in the world, not a church or homegroup.

  • They must find the person that the Holy Spirit wants to touch.

  • They must know what the Holy Spirit wants to do, so they do not get in the way.

  • The Holy Spirit will do the rest.

For this to happen, we must learn how to recognise the presence of the Holy Spirit. We will need to learn how to sense what he wants to do and who he wants to touch.
One day as Jesus was teaching….. And the power of the Lord was present for him to heal the sick (Luke 5:17).
The presence of the Holy Spirit was there for a different purpose that day. Often he inspired Jesus to teach. This day he was there to heal, and Jesus recognised it.

This is the way that things happened in the New Testament. This is the way that the Holy Spirit prefers to work. If we want to be part of his move, then we must be willing to do things his way.
