The Need for a New Revival
God needs a corporate people to be raised up by His grace through the high peak of the divine revelation to live a life according to this revelation. A revival is the practice, the practicality, of the vision we have seen (message 3, outline I. and I.A).
God brings us into experience through revelation. John 14:19b, “you behold Me; because I live, you also shall live.” Lord, keep us beholding You!
“We should all declare that we want to live the life of a God-man. Eventually, the God-men will be the victors, the overcomers, the Zion within Jerusalem. This will bring in a new revival which has never been seen in history, and this will end this age”—Life-study of 1 and 2 Chronicles, p. 28. (message 3, outline IV.)
National College Training, “Come, Lord Jesus!”
The National College Training is July 12-18 on the University of Illinois campus in Urbana-Champaign (halfway between St. Louis and Chicago). An invitation to pray for this training is at http://beseeching.org/prayer-for-college-training/.
The goal of this training is to raise up a generation of age turners who will bring the Lord back. “Come, Lord Jesus!” (Rev. 22:20)
Chicago
The church in Chicago recently ordered a large number of BfA gospel tracts, product offer cards, Bibles, and books as part of a burden to practice more regular gospel outreach. Each week, the saints spend an hour to exercise the priesthood of the gospel by speaking to people in the community and sharing the free materials with them.
Please pray that the Lord would grace the saints and sustain them as they go forth each week. Pray also that the Spirit would prepare many people’s hearts to receive the free materials and to be open to the speaking of the saints. May the Lord bless the church in Chicago and may He continue to bring all the churches in the US into the priesthood of the gospel!
Australia
Lord’s Day, May 31, Dick Taylor, James Lee, and Craig Birchler departed to Australia. The National Serving Ones Training will begin this Friday and continue through next week Tuesday. This will be a re-speaking of the spring ITERO plus fellowship times with small groups of responsible saints. The subject is The Recovery of the Priesthood for God’s Building.
Ask the Lord to grant salvation from any form of clergy-laity for more recovery of the practice of the priesthood in Australia.
Also ask the Lord to richly supply the traveling brothers and to flow through them for the building up of every church in Australia.
Krakow, Poland
Since the beginning of this year there has been a positive response to literature distribution in Krakow. These distributions are conducted by coordination of saints from multiple churches in Poland. A one-page report is at https://churchinlosangeles.org/prayer/. These saints request our prayer for
- the openness and the willingness of literature recipients for further meetings and that some may become the seeds for the church life here;
- obtaining a permit to legally set the distribution table in a strategic location in Krakow;
- the coordination and participation of the saints from different localities in Poland for further distributions and care of literature recipients.
- the migration of one or two families, with some serving saints, to Krakow in order to strengthen the direct care for believers in Krakow who have received literature or otherwise contacted the recovery.
