*BACK TO THE OLD ALTAR*

*It is blasphemy to gather young men and be teaching them methods of church growth, when they cannot pray for 1hour or 2hours daily..*

*I may not have been old in ministry.*
*But I was born in the church...*

*In a time when church was growing from the knee...*

*I was born in a time when people used to troop to church from kilometers away, without any invitation, no handbill, no bulk sms...*

*And when you ask them, they will tell you they were in the dreams, and God showed them the church in the dream and gave them directions...*

*Check inside that church,somebody was praying inside the vestry...*

*Some of them were banished...*

*Some were divorced by their husbands...*

*Some were pulled out from school...*

*All because they started attending the church...*

*But they remained...*

*Today, once you speak to your member any how, he will get offended and stop coming to church...*

*Next week, they would have made him assistant pastor in the church next street...*

*Those are the kind of members our church growth methods can attract ...*

*Jesus said: "No one can bring them except my Heavenly Father draws them..."*

*And told us: ... "Pray ye the Lord of the harvest..."*

*Lord, take us back to our knees..*

*Methods have failed us ...*

*Our fathers knelt down and demons ran away from communities where they were domiciled..*

*The only constant memory I have of my late father was his kneeling position...*

*Even at the age of 90Years, He knelt down almost all through the Night...*

*No wonder Communities saw Him and their native doctors ran away...*

*And evil forests were handed over to him, free by the villagers ...*

*He conquered those ancient demons...*

*And today, to the glory of God mighty churches are standing in those places now...*

*They didn't go to school...*

*But they were taught how to kneel ...*

*My brother, sir, God will never abandon a kneeling generation ....*

*Am in tears here...*

*We have bragged with shadows enough ...*

*No wonder we have started using church positions to attract them to church...*

*No wonder we don't preach certain things again, so that they don't get angry and leave...*

*Because we know that it is not the Holy Ghost that brought them...*

*We know how we stole them from the churches we were invited to minister...*

*A generation of ministers who are tired in the place of prayer has nothing to offer to this degenerating generation*

*Oh Spirit of Grace and Supplication,...*

*Please, invade our lives again...*

*Oh Lord of the harvest...*

*Cause us to keel in Prayer again...*

*.... Lord, make us to encounter You as did Great oracles of Old....*

*Sir, let us go back to our knees...*

*It is the old fashioned way that wields greatest power on earth...*

*Jonah used it inside the belly of the fish and he won a whole city with just one message...*

*Peter and others while hiding used it, and with a single message, 3000 joined the church...*

*Among them were bankers, doctors, engineers, fashion designers and captains of industries...*

*No posters and no handbills...*

*And they were among those that defended the gospel even in the face of martyrdom...*

*They were beheaded...*

*Some were burnt alive...*

*While some were tied to horses and dragged to pieces, to their deaths...*

*Yet, they never had any cause to denounce Jesus...*

*Because they were all looking for a city whose Builder and Maker is God...*

*Friends, whatever that was not gotten in the place of prayer cannot stand the test of time...*
*The Bible said: "Whatever the Lord doeth standeth forever..."*

*Sir, lets trust God for grace to kneel again ...*

*How can Satan allow the prophecies over our ministries to come to pass when he knows the threat we are to his kingdom?...*

*No wonder he has stolen our prayer lives..*

*No wonder He has quenched our hunger for His Presence...*

*If Jesus needed to pray to fulfil the prophesies on His head, why do we think that just reading a book written about church growth will do the work for us?...*

*I am talking to only those who have not forgotten what God showed them when they first began...*

*It is time to kneel again...*

*Let's get back on our knees, reclaiming lost souls in the place of Prayer.*

*Beloved, cry and fast for personal and generational Revival....*

*Pray that God should raise die hard Revivalists in this generation....*

*Don't be selfish in prayer, it doesn't matter if it's you or another person, Ask God to send down APOSTOLIC REVIVAL as of Old.....*

*Ask God to send Back Revival upon this Generation in the name of Jesus.*

*Hear what the Spirit says to the Churches:* _*Cry for Revival Beloved!*_
_*O God Arise, and Revive us by Your Spirit and Fire in Jesus' name.*

why should u speak 2 ur fellow brethren anyhow?

i believe we that are very much interested in a revival should form a whatsapp group, pray, fast together and encourage each other in the LORD. those interested and led by the Spirit of GOD should drop their number and lets begin a new revolution..mine is 0816-982-7645
