District Revival

Friday evening was the concluding service of the District Revival in the Pelham/Calera, Alabama area. Surely the presence of the Lord was in each of the services and many of us were drawn closer to God as we responded to the call of the Spirit. It was a great blessing to see people of all ages coming to the altar and crying out for more of God. These are the not the days to grow slack in our relationship with God but these are the days to lay aside any and everything that would hinder us and run the race of endurance regarding our walk with God. We can not afford to give up or give in to the tactics of the enemy; many of us are choosing to answer the call from God to draw near to His presence. I no longer will be satisfied to go through the motions of religion; I choose to follow after the promise of Life that Christ has spoken to us. I was blessed and encouraged by the fellowship of the people in these area meetings. The Pastors and leaders are to be commended for their faithful support of the services. Many of them attended each evening of the services and I am convinced that God will reward their efforts. I believe that God will send the "rain/reign" of the Spirit in the churches in this area and that God will use them to reach people with the wonderful message of Jesus Christ. We need to be about the "Father's business" which is defined simply as seeking those which are lost and in need of a Savior. I look forward to being with Pastor Clint and Liz Knowles and the Hackleburg, Alabama church on Sunday. I anticipate a great move of God in the services.
