AMAZING WONDERS THAT HAPPEN WHEN GOD IS IN OUR MIDST
**************************************************
1.REVIVAL
The Lord wants to revive His people and His work. He wants to rebuild and restore the desolate areas of our life. The Lord wants to pour out His Spirit upon
us His people and raise up prophets and prophetesses from among us.
SCRIPTURE REFERNCES
************************
For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them."
O LORD, I have heard Your speech and was afraid; O LORD, revive Your work in the midst of the years! In the midst of the years make it known; In wrath
remember mercy.
Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
" ’This is what the Sovereign LORD says: On the day I cleanse you from all your sins, I will resettle your towns, and the ruins will be rebuilt.
The desolate land will be cultivated instead of lying desolate in the sight of all who pass through it.
They will say, "This land that was laid waste has become like the garden of Eden; the cities that were lying in ruins, desolate and destroyed, are now
fortified and inhabited."
Then the nations around you that remain will know that I the LORD have rebuilt what was destroyed and have replanted what was desolate. I the LORD have
spoken, and I will do it.’
"This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Once again I will yield to the plea of the house of Israel and do this for them: I will make their people as numerous
as sheep,
as numerous as the flocks for offerings at Jerusalem during her appointed feasts. So will the ruined cities be filled with flocks of people. Then they will
know that I am the LORD."
The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own brothers. You must listen to him.
" ’In the last days, God says,I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men
will dream dreams.
2.HOLINESS
The Lord wants us to walk in holiness in the midst of a sinful generation. He is moving among us to protect us and deliver us but we must be holy in order to
retain the presence of God in our midst. Noah was a man who walked upright before God in the midst of a wicked generation. The Lord wants us to remove to
injustice and evil from our lives in order to experience His mighty power in our lives.
SCRIPTURE REFERNCES
************************
For the LORD your God moves about in your camp to protect you and to deliver your enemies to you. Your camp must be holy, so that he will not see among you
anything indecent and turn away from you.
Joshua told the people, "Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do amazing things among you."
so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe
The LORD saw how great man’s wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time.
The LORD was grieved that he had made man on the earth, and his heart was filled with pain.
So the LORD said, "I will wipe mankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth—men and animals, and creatures that move along the ground, and birds
of the air—for I am grieved that I have made them."
But Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD.
This is the account of Noah.Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and he walked with God.
That prophet or dreamer must be put to death, because he preached rebellion against the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt and redeemed you from the
land of slavery; he has tried to turn you from the way the LORD your God commanded you to follow. You must purge the evil from among you.
Then you will call, and the LORD will answer;you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I."If you do away with the yoke of oppression, with the pointing
finger and malicious talk,
3.VICTORY
The Lord wants to give us victory in all our battles. The Lord will rule in the midst of our enemies and ensure that they do not triumph over us. The Lord
