WEBVTT 00:00:00.561 --> 00:00:06.272 I want us to go straight to the reading of Scripture Acts, chapter 2, verse 1 to verse 12. 00:00:06.272 --> 00:00:11.012 Acts, chapter 2, verse 1 to verse 12, niv version of the Bible. 00:00:11.012 --> 00:00:16.972 When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. 00:00:16.972 --> 00:00:26.894 Suddenly, a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. 00:00:26.894 --> 00:00:29.489 And I say today, somebody suddenly is coming. 00:00:29.489 --> 00:00:37.469 They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. 00:00:37.469 --> 00:00:45.194 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. 00:00:45.194 --> 00:00:48.402 God is not looking for people who are able. 00:00:48.402 --> 00:00:50.969 He's looking for people he will make able. 00:00:50.969 --> 00:00:57.323 Now they are staying in Jerusalem, god-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. 00:00:58.103 --> 00:01:08.075 When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment because each one had their own language being spoken. 00:01:08.075 --> 00:01:15.290 Utterly amazed, they asked aren't all these who are speaking Galileans? 00:01:15.290 --> 00:01:18.022 Then how you know? 00:01:18.022 --> 00:01:18.926 It was uncommon. 00:01:18.926 --> 00:01:20.546 What was going on here was uncommon. 00:01:20.546 --> 00:01:27.031 Then how is it that each of us hears them in our native language? 00:01:27.031 --> 00:01:44.772 And then he goes on to enumerate the places where these people came from Parthians, medes, elamites, residents of Mesopotamia, judea, cappadocia, pontus and Asia, phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the ports of Libya near Cyrene. 00:01:44.772 --> 00:01:51.225 Visit us from Rome, both Jews and converts to Judaism, cretans and Arabs. 00:01:51.225 --> 00:01:55.921 We hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues. 00:01:55.921 --> 00:02:01.430 Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another what does this mean? 00:02:01.430 --> 00:02:01.992 Let's pray. 00:02:01.992 --> 00:02:03.394 What does this mean? 00:02:03.394 --> 00:02:07.301 Let's pray, father in heaven. 00:02:07.301 --> 00:02:13.907 We thank you for the spectacular that, lord, our everyday life can turn spectacular suddenly. 00:02:13.907 --> 00:02:21.316 Thank you, lord, for the miracles that you do, and you do them on a daily basis, not just on Sundays. 00:02:21.316 --> 00:02:31.645 And thank you, lord, for even what you did many years ago in a very humble, ordinary place, something very powerful. 00:02:31.645 --> 00:02:39.367 And today, lord, as we reflect on what you did at Pentecost, father, we pray that you would touch our lives. 00:02:39.367 --> 00:02:42.234 In Jesus' name, we pray, amen. 00:02:42.234 --> 00:02:43.002 May we have our seats. 00:02:43.002 --> 00:02:44.548 Thank you, worship team. 00:02:44.548 --> 00:02:45.069 God bless you. 00:02:47.621 --> 00:03:04.973 Just before I share the word, let me remind us about the I Believe Park, which is prepared by our senior pastor, reverend Ambrose Nyangao, and this is part of our strategy in terms of reaching everyone with the gospel. 00:03:04.973 --> 00:03:11.127 And so we have a message which is here in the I Believe Park and it needs to get to people. 00:03:11.127 --> 00:03:18.247 We are the ones to take these parks, to these people, workplaces in our homes, wherever we go. 00:03:18.247 --> 00:03:26.832 It's only 100 shillings and inside there is also the weekly blessing and, as well, the Mephibosheth factor. 00:03:26.832 --> 00:03:29.187 So this is something I highly recommend. 00:03:29.187 --> 00:03:34.401 Get several copies, pass them on to other people During the week. 00:03:34.401 --> 00:03:43.913 This season we trust God to reach over 3,000 people and I believe that if and when each one of us gets this and takes it to somebody, there's an anointing on it. 00:03:43.913 --> 00:03:47.250 That person, the Lord, will do something very special in their lives. 00:03:47.250 --> 00:03:54.054 So if you have a brother, a sister, a friend who is out there, get a pack, put it in their hands. 00:03:54.054 --> 00:04:01.431 We have prayed, it is anointed and I believe, pastor Ambrose, something is going to happen in somebody's life as they receive this package. 00:04:03.502 --> 00:04:11.311 The message I share is titled Revive or Fire and, as I do so, I'm very happy because our giving towards the Dome. 00:04:11.311 --> 00:04:18.939 We had a target of 3.6 million towards the Dome, which is the mega structure we shall put on next Sunday. 00:04:18.939 --> 00:04:26.821 It shall be up here, the big tent, the mega Dome, to host 15,000 people, and we have faith. 00:04:26.821 --> 00:04:46.915 People are coming and part of that faith is our giving, as we expect them, and so far we have received 2.924 million, and so you can get the difference between 3.6 and 2.94 million. 00:04:46.915 --> 00:04:51.190 However, our overall budget is 15 million. 00:04:51.190 --> 00:04:59.795 In the first service I prayed that God blesses you in such a way that 15 million will be pocket change. 00:04:59.795 --> 00:05:03.509 Did somebody get it 15 million? 00:05:03.509 --> 00:05:08.091 And you better say to yourself it's going to be pocket change for me, 15 million. 00:05:08.091 --> 00:05:09.865 And I thank God for the young generation. 00:05:09.865 --> 00:05:17.970 God is blessing them a big time and I wish I'll have young people rising and coming and saying Pastor, I am handling the 15 million. 00:05:17.970 --> 00:05:19.564 It's me, the Lord has spoken to me. 00:05:19.564 --> 00:05:21.146 May that come across to you. 00:05:21.146 --> 00:05:22.262 God bless you. 00:05:22.262 --> 00:05:34.788 As we give, we'll continue giving throughout the week and there's a pay bill number which I believe is on the screen right now and you could designate it to DOOM. 00:05:34.788 --> 00:05:41.572 You say DOOM If you write a check, also put at the back the words DOOM, designated giving. 00:05:41.572 --> 00:05:44.970 So we are going to have a great week of revival. 00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:52.482 Monday to Friday, we gather here 5.30 pm, then on Sunday, one service 10 am. 00:05:52.482 --> 00:06:01.646 We have parking at St Mary's School, we shall have shuttles and buses to bring us here as early as 7 am, and so every detail is taken care of. 00:06:01.646 --> 00:06:02.983 Bring your friends. 00:06:02.983 --> 00:06:05.487 We want over 15,000. 00:06:05.487 --> 00:06:17.194 For some reason I'm praying even over 15,000 people to come, because I know that this church has been marked by God to catalyze the last day revival. 00:06:17.194 --> 00:06:23.372 I don't know that you have the same faith I have, but this church has been marked by God to catalyze the last day revival. 00:06:23.372 --> 00:06:31.930 Marked by God to catalyze the last day revival, and because we have people all around us, these hotels you see, Canaan, ibis they spark in there. 00:06:31.930 --> 00:06:36.889 There are several high-rise buildings here and they are populated with guests from all over the world. 00:06:36.889 --> 00:06:45.752 We want them to see something coming, coming up a big tent here, and our prayer is that they will get out of these hotels and come for the revival. 00:06:45.752 --> 00:06:57.363 It's been our prayer for many, many years and it's a joy for us to see the prophetic consummation of what we have seen prophesied in the past. 00:06:57.363 --> 00:06:59.867 God is truly coming through for us. 00:06:59.867 --> 00:07:09.386 Join Pastor Ambrose's faith, my faith, our faith, as we trust God for this city and this continent, and that revival tent is part of it. 00:07:09.386 --> 00:07:10.629 So support it. 00:07:11.279 --> 00:07:16.728 Revival fire Three things I want to share Number one, ignited by the Holy Spirit. 00:07:16.728 --> 00:07:20.850 Number two, resting on every disciple. 00:07:20.850 --> 00:07:24.120 And number three, spreading to the nations. 00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:29.406 Let me just repeat again Revival fire exclamation mark. 00:07:29.406 --> 00:07:31.591 So kind of say it with some oomph. 00:07:31.591 --> 00:07:39.769 You know revival fire, ignited by the Holy Spirit resting on every disciple, spreading to the nations. 00:07:39.769 --> 00:07:45.456 The text is as I read earlier Acts, chapter 2, verse 1 up to verse 12. 00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:50.591 I want to attempt defining revival. 00:07:50.591 --> 00:08:13.692 I know it's bigger than my definition here, but let me put revival like this Revival is a Holy Spirit-empowered awakening of God's people that brings transformation, bold witness and supernatural signs and wonders, as promised in Acts, chapter 2, verse 17. 00:08:13.692 --> 00:08:31.706 I will read that definition once again Revival is a holy spirit empowered awakening of God's people that brings transformation, bold witness and supernatural signs and wonders, as promised in Acts, chapter 2, verse 17. 00:08:31.706 --> 00:08:34.030 I will ask us to have the scripture. 00:08:34.030 --> 00:08:36.721 It's there on the screen Acts 2, verse 17,. 00:08:36.721 --> 00:08:43.331 It says this in the last days, god says I will pour out my spirit on all people. 00:08:43.331 --> 00:08:44.312 I will pour out my spirit on all people. 00:08:44.312 --> 00:08:53.692 Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. 00:08:53.692 --> 00:09:12.091 And, pastor Ambrose, I know it's our prayer this week that revival fire falls and I want to believe that we have a common faith that revival fire falls and falls the same way it did in Pentecost, which is a long time ago, over 2,000 years ago. 00:09:12.091 --> 00:09:19.793 But God is able to do it again, and so my prayer is this Lord, do it again. 00:09:19.793 --> 00:09:27.169 He is able to do it once again, first of all ignited by the Holy Spirit. 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:33.948 Revival is not a work of man, revival is a work of God. 00:09:33.948 --> 00:09:47.191 It is a divine work, and I know that there are people who try to induce revival and therefore they get very dramatic and sometimes even appealing to emotions. 00:09:47.191 --> 00:09:55.874 But I want to say here once again that revival is a work of God, is not a work of man. 00:09:55.874 --> 00:10:02.427 Man cannot achieve this kind of revival we find in the book of Acts, chapter 2. 00:10:02.427 --> 00:10:22.493 A revival so profound that it can reach the soul of man, the mind of man, the spirit of man, the whole social fabric of life, that can touch economics and touch politics, you know, a revival that just changes everything. 00:10:22.493 --> 00:10:28.568 Man cannot generate such a fire that will change things. 00:10:29.541 --> 00:10:40.106 Of course we tend to see strange fires, but the revival that the Holy Spirit brings is not a strange fire, it is a fire from God. 00:10:40.106 --> 00:11:01.375 In the book of Leviticus, chapter 10, verse 1 and 2, we see some two men there, nadab and Abihu, who are sons of Aaron who tried to put up a fire, but it was strange because this fire lacked authority and it was a fire that God had not commanded. 00:11:01.375 --> 00:11:08.162 God had not commanded. 00:11:08.162 --> 00:11:16.361 We know that the fire that comes through the Holy Spirit was promised in the days of Joel, long time ago, concerning the last days and how God will pour out his spirit upon all flesh. 00:11:16.361 --> 00:11:28.822 And when his spirit and the fire of the spirit comes upon all flesh, then manifestations like 1 Corinthians 12, verse 7, will say and to everyone, a manifestation of the Spirit has been given. 00:11:28.822 --> 00:11:40.306 Then manifestation, manifestation of the Spirit would come, and the manifestation of the fire of the Holy Spirit is very, very clear. 00:11:40.306 --> 00:11:42.008 People love each other. 00:11:42.008 --> 00:11:43.470 You know clear. 00:11:43.470 --> 00:11:43.929 People love each other. 00:11:43.929 --> 00:11:46.413 You know there is love, joy, peace, patience. 00:11:46.413 --> 00:11:48.255 Galatians 5, verse 22,. 00:11:48.255 --> 00:11:57.951 The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, long-suffering and self-control. 00:11:57.951 --> 00:11:59.417 And he says again, as such, there is no law. 00:11:59.417 --> 00:12:17.446 A strange fire is not able to produce this kind of manifestation, but the fire of the Holy Spirit produces a very powerful manifestation and therefore it is a sovereign work of God and it can only be ignited by the Holy Spirit. 00:12:19.068 --> 00:12:21.533 In this revival season that we are launching today. 00:12:21.533 --> 00:12:25.370 We have titled it Unbound Dominion. 00:12:25.370 --> 00:12:28.009 That is the theme Unbound Dominion. 00:12:28.009 --> 00:12:38.510 And during the week, from Monday all the way to Friday and then Sunday, we are having great speakers who are coming, starting with Reverend Ambrose Nyong'o tomorrow evening from 5.30. 00:12:38.510 --> 00:12:45.793 And those who are following in online, if you are abroad, please link up tomorrow from 5.30 pm. 00:12:45.793 --> 00:12:58.951 We have a very special the altar is now being erected right now, even as I share, we are launching the revival week and those who are around the country, please come over, all of us here who are here, come with friends from tomorrow 5.30. 00:12:58.951 --> 00:13:06.048 So, beginning Monday, there will be an expose of this theme, unbound Dominion. 00:13:06.880 --> 00:13:14.779 And I want to say this the torch of Unbound Dominion is ignited by the Holy Spirit. 00:13:14.779 --> 00:13:23.773 This revival fire, there is a torch and the fire on that torch, you know, is ignited by the Holy Spirit. 00:13:23.773 --> 00:13:29.761 Torch, you know, is ignited by the Holy Spirit. 00:13:29.761 --> 00:13:34.610 Any other ignition is strange and any other ignition may even be cultic and could even take you in the wrong direction. 00:13:35.552 --> 00:13:45.874 Now there was a scripture I didn't read it Leviticus, chapter 10, verse 1 and 2, if I can have it on the screen again regarding the strange fires. 00:13:45.874 --> 00:13:57.738 Aaron's sons, nadab and Abihu took their censers, put fire in them and added incense, and they offered unauthorized fire before the Lord. 00:13:57.738 --> 00:14:05.283 In other words, that worship was not acceptable, contrary to his command, and that kind of fire invites judgment. 00:14:05.283 --> 00:14:11.522 So fire came out from the presence of the Lord and consumed them and they died before the Lord. 00:14:11.522 --> 00:14:38.166 The fire we are calling today and the fire that is being ignited this week here, is a fire from the Holy Spirit, and I want to say this that the fire of the Holy Spirit will reignite your fire of prayer, will ignite your fire and desire of reading the Scriptures, will ignite your fire for the nations and will also ignite your fire of worship. 00:14:38.166 --> 00:14:43.484 It's a very powerful fire and it is recorded there in Acts 2, verse 1 and 2. 00:14:43.484 --> 00:14:47.326 When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. 00:14:47.326 --> 00:14:57.730 Suddenly, a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. 00:14:57.730 --> 00:15:01.658 It is from the Lord and it came from heaven. 00:15:01.658 --> 00:15:09.024 This fire, and because of this fire, the Holy Spirit, something began to happen in the lives of the disciples. 00:15:09.024 --> 00:15:12.918 That has continued to happen until to this day where we are. 00:15:12.918 --> 00:15:18.409 It is a fire that is enduring fire, not like paper fire. 00:15:18.409 --> 00:15:21.725 You find some people who are very excited one day. 00:15:21.725 --> 00:15:29.052 The next day they are not excited, but this is a fire that is enduring the fire of the Holy Spirit. 00:15:29.573 --> 00:15:33.081 In Luke, chapter 24, verse 49 to verse 53,. 00:15:33.081 --> 00:15:34.423 What does the Bible say? 00:15:34.423 --> 00:15:38.610 Luke, chapter 24, verse 49 to verse 53. 00:15:38.610 --> 00:15:47.500 Jesus said I'm going to send you what my Father has promised, but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high. 00:15:47.500 --> 00:15:54.322 Goes on to say when he had led them out to the vicinity of Bethany, he lifted up his hands and blessed them. 00:15:54.322 --> 00:16:01.922 That was the last activity of Jesus, and while he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up into heaven. 00:16:02.283 --> 00:16:12.067 Pastor Ambrose, I said in the first service, the reason we bless people at the end of the service is because Jesus, when he was taken off, he was actually blessing, and so we continue in the same flow of blessings. 00:16:12.067 --> 00:16:14.298 While he was blessing them, he left. 00:16:14.298 --> 00:16:21.240 Then they worshiped him, returned to Jerusalem with great joy and they stayed continually at the temple praising God. 00:16:21.240 --> 00:16:37.375 They were not supposed to do any work of God without the fire of the Holy Spirit, otherwise they would be doing it in their own strength and those who light up strange fires. 00:16:37.375 --> 00:16:58.476 You see on television and some preachers come there and they light up strange fires of revival and you look at the activities and what is happening there and it's just despicable and you can sense in your spirit that is not from God. 00:16:58.476 --> 00:17:02.746 All kinds of gimmicks happening right now on television and people ask you to do all kinds of funny strange things. 00:17:02.746 --> 00:17:03.368 You've seen it. 00:17:04.457 --> 00:17:05.662 I'm not going to all the details. 00:17:05.662 --> 00:17:13.484 Some of these things we see and some of them are embarrassing for us who are preachers and we say Lord, why should this happen? 00:17:13.484 --> 00:17:21.728 And I know many people have stopped going to churches because of the embarrassment that some of these services bring to the people. 00:17:21.728 --> 00:17:26.878 And they are pushed and shoved Pastor Kiniti mentioned last week. 00:17:26.878 --> 00:17:30.817 Some of them are even made to fall down. 00:17:30.817 --> 00:17:35.643 And I want to say this strange fires are not enduring. 00:17:35.643 --> 00:17:53.967 Strange fires will make you feel good for a very short time, but in the long term, when you go back to your house and you have to love somebody, in the long term, when you have to carry joy in situations that are very difficult, in the long term only the fire of the Holy Spirit can take you through. 00:17:54.555 --> 00:17:59.047 And if you are here or listening to me online, and you are in a place of strange fires. 00:17:59.047 --> 00:18:06.907 I'm calling you out of that strange fire in the name of Jesus Christ and I'm calling you back to the fire of the Holy Spirit. 00:18:06.907 --> 00:18:24.278 You know, Moses, in Exodus, chapter 3, verse 2 and 3, I thank God that the fire that he went to was not a strange fire, and when the fire of the Holy Spirit comes, there is a way he directs you and there is a way this fire guides you. 00:18:24.278 --> 00:18:31.017 It says this there, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. 00:18:31.017 --> 00:18:36.426 Moses saw that, though the bush was on fire, it did not burn up. 00:18:36.426 --> 00:18:43.422 So Moses thought I will go over and see this strange sight, why the bush does not burn up. 00:18:43.422 --> 00:18:52.758 When the Lord saw that he had gone over to look, god called to him from within the bush, moses, moses. 00:18:53.259 --> 00:19:00.103 And Moses said here I am, here at Parklands Baptist Church, the epicenter of global revival. 00:19:00.103 --> 00:19:13.576 We are raising an altar of revival, and this altar of revival, the fire there, is ignited by the Holy Spirit and I see God calling somebody by this fire. 00:19:13.576 --> 00:19:18.305 I'm telling you this fire is going to be so powerful. 00:19:18.305 --> 00:19:31.661 We have called it bigger, better and greater People driving around here will find themselves, pastor Ambrose, driving into this compound in Jesus' name, the people in these hotels here. 00:19:31.661 --> 00:19:53.902 The hotels will be emptied and they are going to be trooping here I am prophesying Hallelujah, trooping into this sanctuary Because it's not by power nor by might, but by God's Spirit we make it and therefore the fire of the Holy Spirit is unique, is different, and the same way it happened at Pentecost. 00:19:53.902 --> 00:19:56.660 People saw it, people felt it. 00:19:56.660 --> 00:20:00.061 There were tongues you know flames, tongues of fire. 00:20:00.061 --> 00:20:05.622 You know that were resting on everybody and you cannot mistake it for any other fire. 00:20:05.622 --> 00:20:12.698 And if somebody's on fire for the Lord, you cannot mistake that fire for any other fire. 00:20:12.698 --> 00:20:27.601 I like putting it this way when you're fired by the Holy Spirit and you go here, westlands, to begin to stop people and evangelize, I'm telling you they'll see the fire, the fire of the Holy Spirit in you and they will stop. 00:20:28.576 --> 00:20:30.383 I tried it the other day. 00:20:30.383 --> 00:20:57.827 I went to Westlands, I was telling the first service and between the petrol station or Libya and Shell, that's where I was plying, or rather walking this way and walking the other way, and I was just stopping people and I introduced myself and I say God loves you, I love you, and I talk about John 3.16 once again, god loves you in such a way he gave his son to die for you. 00:20:57.827 --> 00:20:58.676 And do you know? 00:20:58.676 --> 00:21:06.201 There is not a single person that I stopped, even in the petrol stations, those two petrol stations who took off. 00:21:06.201 --> 00:21:07.800 I mean, they listened. 00:21:09.076 --> 00:21:12.382 And let me tell you, the fire of the Holy Spirit is not strange. 00:21:12.382 --> 00:21:14.935 There is a glory about it. 00:21:14.935 --> 00:21:19.000 When Moses came from the mountain, he was shining with that glory. 00:21:19.000 --> 00:21:32.692 Isaiah 60, verse 1, says this Arise and shine, for your light has come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon you and because of that, the nations will come to your light in verse 3, and kings to the rising of your doom. 00:21:32.692 --> 00:21:36.124 There's just something about this fire of the Holy Spirit. 00:21:36.124 --> 00:21:40.759 It is ignited by the Holy Spirit and it is different from the strange fires. 00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:43.451 Now, when I finished sharing there, I Holy Spirit. 00:21:43.451 --> 00:21:56.866 And it is different from the strange fires Now, when I finished sharing there, I came back and some of those people I shared with talked with someone here and they said, because I would introduce myself, the pastor from your church came over and he was just sharing with us the gospel. 00:21:56.934 --> 00:22:06.101 So he came back to me in the office and told me by the way, those people you are talking with out there, they told me that you are there and I gave out Bibles. 00:22:06.101 --> 00:22:18.623 So this time around, carry this pack, carry a Bible, carry something very special, because you have the fire of the Holy Spirit and it's not a strange fire. 00:22:18.623 --> 00:22:20.969 And so Moses, the burning bush sees a fire and he knows this one is not a strange fire. 00:22:20.969 --> 00:22:23.642 And so Moses, the burning bush sees a fire and he knows this one is not a strange fire. 00:22:23.642 --> 00:22:30.681 He gets closer and I'm inviting us, this week of revival, to come, come with your friends. 00:22:30.681 --> 00:22:33.503 God is going to give you new directions. 00:22:33.503 --> 00:22:43.598 God is going to revive your life in a special way, those dreams that have been lost, that business that has been failing, that prayer life that has also been faltering. 00:22:43.598 --> 00:22:50.219 God is saying by my fire I shall resuscitate it and I shall also bring it to life. 00:22:50.219 --> 00:22:58.806 This fire is falling on the disciples who formerly were very afraid, but suddenly something is happening, their trajectory is changing. 00:22:58.806 --> 00:23:02.182 And so in this revival season, we are saying start up. 00:23:02.182 --> 00:23:03.636 We are saying start up. 00:23:03.636 --> 00:23:10.219 And that's what Paul told Timothy, because he was timid, he was afraid and he was saying put to flame. 00:23:10.219 --> 00:23:23.170 You know, 2 Timothy, chapter 1, verse 6 and 7, put to flame the gift that is in you, that came by the laying of one of my hands and that gift also had come from the grandmother and mother. 00:23:23.170 --> 00:23:25.542 And now Paul lays a hand on him. 00:23:25.542 --> 00:23:33.482 There was a gift inside Timothy but needed to be put to flame, the fire of the Holy Spirit. 00:23:33.914 --> 00:23:35.321 I thank God for the young generation. 00:23:35.321 --> 00:23:41.835 God's spirit is upon them and let me tell you, god is going to use young people in this season of revival. 00:23:41.835 --> 00:23:49.404 In the next 10 years it will be the young generation driven revival and they shall go with boldness. 00:23:49.404 --> 00:23:56.617 I am working with a group of young people who are going to Nyali, mombasa, and they will be holding some big meetings there. 00:23:56.617 --> 00:24:01.365 They were in Eldoret, young people that were in Eldoret the other day and it was a big move of God. 00:24:01.365 --> 00:24:04.122 Yesterday they went to Kituwe. 00:24:04.122 --> 00:24:19.199 They were in the Kituwe area and it's a group of young people and I'm telling you, when the fire of the Holy Spirit of God is ignited, by the Holy Spirit on your gift, the gift you have as it is, you become different. 00:24:19.199 --> 00:24:21.365 In that boardroom, in that workplace. 00:24:21.365 --> 00:24:25.039 You are no longer afraid and you start making a difference. 00:24:25.480 --> 00:24:29.288 Revival fire, number one, ignited by the Holy Spirit. 00:24:29.288 --> 00:24:35.165 And so the prayer to pray is to pray Holy Spirit, fire me up again. 00:24:35.165 --> 00:24:36.249 That's the prayer there. 00:24:36.249 --> 00:24:50.086 Holy Spirit, fire me up again, rekindle the flame of my gift, rekindle the flame of my prayer life and rekindle the flame of my desire to win souls for the kingdom. 00:24:50.086 --> 00:24:53.704 I wonder when is the last time you led someone to Christ? 00:24:53.704 --> 00:24:55.941 From January up to now? 00:24:55.941 --> 00:24:59.065 But we can pray, rekindle that flame. 00:24:59.065 --> 00:25:06.244 The flame of reading the Bible is the fire of the Holy Spirit, and only the Holy Spirit, only him who can do that. 00:25:06.244 --> 00:25:10.326 But number two resting on every disciple. 00:25:10.326 --> 00:25:24.262 So, first of all, the torch of revival ignited by the Holy Spirit, but secondly, the tongue, that flame, tongue of revival resting on every disciple. 00:25:24.262 --> 00:25:26.695 And this is a work on people. 00:25:26.695 --> 00:25:33.641 So in revival there is a divine dimension, but there is also a people dimension. 00:25:34.394 --> 00:25:37.800 When we read in Acts, chapter 2, verse 3 and 4, what does it say? 00:25:37.800 --> 00:25:44.296 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. 00:25:44.296 --> 00:25:50.141 Now they were staying in Jerusalem, god, fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. 00:25:50.141 --> 00:26:01.875 You know, when the Spirit of God comes, he comes without discrimination and it doesn't matter the age, the gender, the status, the background, the status, the background. 00:26:01.875 --> 00:26:09.344 He comes upon everyone, everyone, and we see it in the book of Acts, chapter 2. 00:26:09.344 --> 00:26:12.964 And so this revival is for everybody. 00:26:12.964 --> 00:26:24.808 It is for everybody and I'm praying that this revival gets into homes and this revival reaches out to every person without discrimination. 00:26:25.394 --> 00:26:47.843 And somebody feeling maybe this is not for me, but I want to tell you, some of the revivals that have affected nations were started by young people who are otherwise inconsequential, young people who felt like Gideon in the book of Judges, chapter six, who would say I come from a small family, a small tribe, we are not big. 00:26:47.843 --> 00:26:53.685 But let me say this God works in humble places to do global stuff. 00:26:53.685 --> 00:26:57.063 You know, don't despise small beginnings. 00:26:57.063 --> 00:26:58.902 Zechariah, chapter four, in verse 10. 00:26:58.902 --> 00:27:06.825 Never despise a small beginning or feel like you are too small to be a catalyst of the move of God. 00:27:06.825 --> 00:27:11.240 This fire rests on every person. 00:27:12.516 --> 00:27:15.963 I am reminded, pastor Ambrose, of a young man called Evan Roberts. 00:27:15.963 --> 00:27:29.483 And Evan Roberts, god used him to catalyze the Welsh revival, which was a revival that took place in 1904, at the beginning of the 20th century in Wales. 00:27:29.483 --> 00:27:36.890 He was a student coming from the coal mine areas and these young men joined other young people. 00:27:36.890 --> 00:27:49.442 They became 17 of them and they started praying and the prayer was very simple Lord bend me. 00:27:49.442 --> 00:27:52.446 It's like Lord bend me. 00:27:52.446 --> 00:27:56.290 And then they started praying, lord bend Wales. 00:27:56.290 --> 00:28:10.407 And as they were praying, like that revival fire descended on them, a small group of young people, and each of them received an impartation of the revival fire. 00:28:10.407 --> 00:28:13.044 You are not too young to receive this fire. 00:28:13.044 --> 00:28:15.363 You are not too old to receive this fire. 00:28:15.363 --> 00:28:21.460 Your status is neither here nor there to receive the fire, this fire of the Holy Spirit. 00:28:21.460 --> 00:28:27.465 You could be a boss, ceo of an organization, but you could also be the person serving in the grounds. 00:28:27.465 --> 00:28:35.409 This is a fire that spreads without discrimination, reaching everyone, and you know, even Roberts and the team. 00:28:35.409 --> 00:28:48.721 God used them to catalyze a revival that actually affected the whole, let me put it, the whole century, the last century that we know, from year 1900 all the way to year 2000,. 00:28:48.721 --> 00:28:51.847 Even Robertson team, 1904 in Wales. 00:28:52.455 --> 00:29:00.229 In fact, it was the Welsh revival that motivated the revivals that went into the 1906 in the United States. 00:29:00.229 --> 00:29:08.375 That went into the 1906 in the United States, the Azusa Street Revival in Los Angeles, california, that came in April 9, 1906. 00:29:08.375 --> 00:29:15.384 That revival, and the catalyst there was a preacher, a black preacher, who was called William Simmons. 00:29:15.384 --> 00:29:24.638 That revival was a result of the revival that happened in Wales, and so the revival went across, reaching nations. 00:29:24.638 --> 00:29:32.615 And let me tell you, the change was so big in Wales that even the prisons became depopulated. 00:29:32.615 --> 00:29:52.607 The courtrooms had no cases to deal with, the police did not have work to do because of this revival, and even the horses became confused, because, you see, the coal miners would use horses and they were using cusses as they were riding their horses. 00:29:52.607 --> 00:30:01.692 And you know, the cusses stopped and blessings started and the horses became confused because the instructions, you know, sounded different. 00:30:09.474 --> 00:30:12.480 I am telling you, this revival falls on everyone and God can use somebody who feels insignificant greatly for his glory. 00:30:12.480 --> 00:30:22.846 All you need to say is that, lord, let this revival come upon me and you know, when God comes upon you, he begins to do that which man cannot do. 00:30:22.846 --> 00:30:26.262 You know, in Luke, chapter 4, from verse 18 to verse 21,. 00:30:26.262 --> 00:30:30.164 This is what the Bible says Luke, chapter 4, verse 18 to verse 21. 00:30:30.164 --> 00:30:35.446 And this is my prayer, that each one of us would pray, this prayer. 00:30:35.446 --> 00:30:42.008 The Spirit of the Lord is on me because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. 00:30:42.008 --> 00:30:52.768 He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor, Of course, it goes on to say. 00:30:52.994 --> 00:30:56.945 Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down. 00:30:56.945 --> 00:31:00.561 The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him. 00:31:00.561 --> 00:31:11.759 He began by saying to them today, this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing. 00:31:11.759 --> 00:31:15.588 May I say this week, this scripture is fulfilled in our hearing and I see the Spirit of the Lord upon every one of us. 00:31:15.588 --> 00:31:26.025 Like Jesus said, the Spirit of the Lord is upon me and because of God's Spirit upon every one of us, the fire of the Holy Spirit then descends upon us. 00:31:26.025 --> 00:31:33.905 Then there is revival in our homes, revival in our cities, revival in our countries and also revival around the world. 00:31:33.905 --> 00:31:47.684 Just like even Robert, a young man, allowed the fire of the Holy Spirit upon his life, gathered a group of young men and that fire started spreading from there. 00:31:47.684 --> 00:32:03.923 That fire is resting on you and me in this 21st century, and my prayer is this that the fire of the Holy Spirit descend upon every one of us now and also throughout this week. 00:32:04.694 --> 00:32:09.082 Some of these things we are trying to change, even governments are trying to change. 00:32:09.082 --> 00:32:17.325 Rehabilitation houses or rehab homes are trying to change Some of these things hospitals are trying to deal with. 00:32:17.325 --> 00:32:25.239 I am telling you, when the Holy Spirit begins to move, then signs and wonders begin to manifest. 00:32:25.239 --> 00:32:31.155 And the sign and wonder of the tongue, flame of fire on everybody was very, very manifest. 00:32:31.155 --> 00:32:43.169 And, pastor Ambrose, as we have prayed Acts 4, verse 30, god, stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant, jesus. 00:32:43.169 --> 00:32:49.448 I believe this week we shall see things that was in those days come alive again. 00:32:50.615 --> 00:32:52.782 The disease burden is too heavy. 00:32:52.782 --> 00:32:55.521 The Holy Spirit can sort it out. 00:32:55.521 --> 00:32:58.303 The debt burden is too heavy. 00:32:58.303 --> 00:33:01.263 The Holy Spirit can do what Can sort it out? 00:33:01.263 --> 00:33:05.046 Some of these challenges in our families, marriages and relationships. 00:33:05.046 --> 00:33:12.467 We cannot handle them in our own strength, but this power needs to come upon every one of you and me. 00:33:12.467 --> 00:33:20.829 I wonder what fire is identifying you and you know this fire falling on every person, every person. 00:33:20.829 --> 00:33:22.656 What fire is upon your life? 00:33:22.656 --> 00:33:35.124 And today I pray that we are able to pray and say fire of God come upon me, not just on everybody, but upon me and finally spreading to the nations. 00:33:35.124 --> 00:33:39.861 Revival fire spreading to the nation, a work unstoppable. 00:33:40.595 --> 00:33:58.080 In Acts, chapter 2, from verse 5 to verse 12, now they were staying in Jerusalem, god fearing Jews from every nation under heaven, when they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment because each one of them had in their own language, their own language being spoken. 00:33:58.080 --> 00:34:04.445 Utterly amazed, they asked aren't all these who are speaking Galileans? 00:34:04.445 --> 00:34:08.786 Then how is it that each of us hears them in our native language? 00:34:08.786 --> 00:34:14.668 And then he mentions quite a number of places and languages there. 00:34:14.668 --> 00:34:17.744 And then let me jump to verse 12. 00:34:17.744 --> 00:34:22.226 Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another what does this mean? 00:34:22.226 --> 00:34:26.365 And of course, some of them thought these people were drunk. 00:34:27.936 --> 00:34:41.427 This fire that the Lord sends individually to each one of us is supposed to spread, and each one of us has a calling to actually spread it to the ends of the earth. 00:34:41.427 --> 00:34:47.724 The work of God is unstoppable and that work will spread through you and me. 00:34:47.724 --> 00:34:50.289 Acts 1.8, we all know it. 00:34:50.289 --> 00:35:02.755 It says you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit does what it's come upon you and you shall be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in Judea, in Samaria and also to the uttermost parts of the world. 00:35:02.755 --> 00:35:18.422 Matthew 28, verse 19 and 20 says Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, in the name of the Son, in the name of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. 00:35:18.422 --> 00:35:25.224 And then he says if you do this, then I will be with you to the end of the age. 00:35:26.175 --> 00:35:30.947 This revival fire is not meant to be stored up in a locker. 00:35:30.947 --> 00:35:38.601 This revival fire is supposed to spread out, is supposed to reach others. 00:35:38.601 --> 00:35:42.659 In the first service I gave the illustration of a candle. 00:35:42.659 --> 00:35:56.592 If you all receive a candle with no fire and I get one candle and I light it, we are probably 3,000 people plus the ones in the pavilion, probably 3,000, 4,000. 00:35:56.592 --> 00:36:07.043 My single candle will be capable to come all the way around, lighting your candles, your candles. 00:36:07.043 --> 00:36:09.885 And secondly, my candle. 00:36:09.885 --> 00:36:16.454 Even after lighting all the candles, its light will not be diminished. 00:36:16.454 --> 00:36:25.530 Amazing A single candle, a single individual reaching out, lighting up lives. 00:36:25.530 --> 00:36:33.231 You know, firing up our lives, and yet your candle is not burning out. 00:36:33.231 --> 00:36:41.690 We are supposed to serve the Lord to the last breath and God gave us voice to use it. 00:36:41.690 --> 00:36:44.208 He gave us feet to use them. 00:36:44.208 --> 00:37:00.563 He gives us resources that we may use these resources and so that we become vehicles of this fire and, using our platforms wherever God has actually put us, then we light the fire there. 00:37:00.563 --> 00:37:21.306 And when you light your fire and I light my fire everywhere I go like yesterday I was in Makueni County, in Em like yesterday I was in Makueni County, in Emali and I was there lighting up, you know, my candle in that place where the Lord has placed you and you light up that world. 00:37:21.306 --> 00:37:30.626 I am telling you then, revival has arrived and this revival therefore needs all of us, but also needs us going. 00:37:30.626 --> 00:37:35.230 That's why the Bible says go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations. 00:37:35.820 --> 00:37:42.451 In the first service, at the end of the service, there's a lady called Jane who came forward. 00:37:42.451 --> 00:37:48.208 She was sitting somewhere there and Jane came up, and Jane is an English teacher. 00:37:48.208 --> 00:37:57.789 Jane has been praying for a long time for the 1040 window around the world, which is a belt. 00:37:57.789 --> 00:38:04.505 It's a belt area around the world 10 degrees latitude north, 40 degrees latitude north. 00:38:04.505 --> 00:38:10.775 In between there around the world, it forms a belt called the 1040 window. 00:38:10.775 --> 00:38:47.427 Within that window are some of the religions that are still unreached Hinduism, buddhism, islam, zoroastrianism, confucianism five of them, and so many people are locked by this religious prison of sorts, and there is need for the gospel of Christ to break its light forth in that darkness so that those prison doors can be open and so that those people can also enjoy what we are enjoying. 00:38:47.427 --> 00:38:50.608 You know what the cross is able to offer us. 00:38:50.608 --> 00:38:52.806 They can also enjoy salvation. 00:38:52.806 --> 00:38:57.847 And so Jane has been praying for quite some time for that window around the world. 00:38:57.847 --> 00:39:10.541 She is an English teacher and the Lord has actually opened a door through her English platform to actually go this week to Asia, taiwan. 00:39:10.541 --> 00:39:14.222 And she told me, pastor, I'm going as a missionary. 00:39:14.222 --> 00:39:25.086 Yes, we can give a hand to the Lord, I'm going as a missionary to Taiwan and I'm going to use my English platform to propagate this gospel. 00:39:25.086 --> 00:39:30.670 And she was up here together with Pastor Mashina and the lady called Caro who mentored her. 00:39:30.670 --> 00:39:32.586 We prayed for her in the first service. 00:39:32.586 --> 00:39:39.226 You can watch that clip later from the first service Something very, very powerful. 00:39:39.639 --> 00:39:47.028 And as we were doing it, pastor Ambrose, it reminded me of my time in China, and I was a very young person. 00:39:47.028 --> 00:39:59.606 And, as I say, can I make a difference in China, and I went to Hong Kong first of all and was trained like an army guy, military covert action. 00:39:59.606 --> 00:40:10.530 And the reason for going to China that time we didn't have these phones and Bibles and all that I mean a Bible in the phones was to smuggle Bibles. 00:40:10.530 --> 00:40:27.027 And so I was a Bible smuggler and you can imagine you pack your bag with Bibles but you must not be seen, because if you are arrested, I'm telling you, the courts there function very quickly, your story will end very fast. 00:40:27.027 --> 00:40:42.130 But I would come clandestinely from Hong Kong into China, shenzhen, guangzhou and I would go those places with my Bibles and distributing Bibles among the underground church. 00:40:43.519 --> 00:40:53.844 I want to say there is a fire in you and there is a fire in me and it must not be contained in a small, even a small space called a church. 00:40:53.844 --> 00:41:00.202 This fire must get out of the church and this fire must get out of the homes. 00:41:00.202 --> 00:41:22.168 It must get out from those places where we have been stuck and we must now walk out with this fire of the Holy Spirit and begin to share it with the nations, one of the things I love doing every time I come to my office, every day, every time I come to my office is hold the globe. 00:41:22.168 --> 00:41:27.445 I have the round globe in my office, the rotating one, and it's on my desk. 00:41:27.445 --> 00:41:33.646 And what I do when I come, as soon as I get to my office, I hold it like this. 00:41:33.646 --> 00:41:39.923 I bring it close to my heart and I hold it like this, and this is the prayer I always pray. 00:41:39.923 --> 00:41:43.753 I've prayed it since I was a youth Psalms, chapter 2, verse 8. 00:41:43.753 --> 00:41:46.905 Ask of me the nations and I'll do what. 00:41:46.905 --> 00:41:53.007 I'll give them to you as an inheritance, and it's a powerful thing. 00:41:53.007 --> 00:41:56.188 And I say, lord, give me these nations. 00:41:56.188 --> 00:42:07.409 Or like someone, one of the revivalists, who prayed and is saying give me my nation or I die I think it was Scotland Somebody praying and say give me Scotland or I die. 00:42:07.409 --> 00:42:08.932 And so I pray. 00:42:08.932 --> 00:42:22.128 You know, then, on Mondays, every Monday, pastor Ambrose, you know, for the last 20, some years, 24 now every Monday I leave my house, I drive around this city. 00:42:22.128 --> 00:42:23.505 It's my day of prayer. 00:42:23.505 --> 00:42:37.532 I go to supermarkets, I go to hospitals, I go to all these population centers, to schools and school neighborhoods, and every Monday, because the Bible says beautiful are the feet of those who you know, take the gospel. 00:42:37.532 --> 00:42:42.766 And then Joshua 1, 3 says everywhere you step, I have done what I've given to you by faith. 00:42:42.766 --> 00:42:49.750 I go around and I pray for this city and I thank God for that kind of opportunity. 00:42:49.750 --> 00:43:01.409 This fire must be spread out and I know that God has given you what he has given you so that you are able to take this fire to the ends of the earth. 00:43:01.409 --> 00:43:02.612 It is possible. 00:43:03.179 --> 00:43:04.463 The young people of Africa. 00:43:04.463 --> 00:43:12.851 Once again, the Bible is saying to you in the last days, I'll pour out my spirit upon all flesh. 00:43:12.851 --> 00:43:17.289 I'm saying to young people Young people arise, young people shine. 00:43:17.289 --> 00:43:19.485 He'll pour his spirit upon all flesh. 00:43:19.485 --> 00:43:22.309 But young people are mentioned there very specifically. 00:43:22.309 --> 00:43:30.527 Brother Felix, I see you're here and your friend from Malawi, yeah, yes, africa for Jesus, hallelujah, yes, that Colabo. 00:43:30.527 --> 00:43:33.012 Africa for Jesus, hallelujah, yes, that Colabo. 00:43:33.012 --> 00:43:38.925 These young people, just come, felix, felix, just come, and you see how firebrands look like the beard and you'll see the profile of the. 00:43:38.925 --> 00:43:46.789 Come here, come here, this young generation, and you can see the signature. 00:43:46.789 --> 00:43:56.483 I see your brother also there, the signature right there, you know, and my brother, hallelujah, this signature, the young people of Africa. 00:43:57.206 --> 00:44:05.726 God is saying I have released my spirit upon you, you know, and because of that spirit I have released upon you. 00:44:05.726 --> 00:44:10.255 The Lord is saying then visions and dreams shall become your portion. 00:44:10.255 --> 00:44:14.490 The fire of the Holy Spirit is falling upon you. 00:44:14.490 --> 00:44:21.068 I'm using it as a point of contact for all the young people, and because of that the nations shall come to Christ. 00:44:21.068 --> 00:44:28.067 Young people of the Lord, may I now say may the doors open for you, the gates of the nations open. 00:44:28.067 --> 00:44:35.431 Let the young people come, and you know Parklands Baptist Church and also Africa as the epicenter of this revival. 00:44:35.431 --> 00:44:42.190 We shall send the young people to the ends of the earth and together with Malawi, we agree In the name of Jesus. 00:44:42.190 --> 00:44:46.447 Yes, we agree with Malawi and all the other nations of Africa. 00:44:46.447 --> 00:44:48.547 Is there any other African country represented here? 00:44:48.547 --> 00:44:51.556 You can raise your hand wherever you are. 00:44:51.556 --> 00:44:53.255 Yes, right there or right here. 00:44:53.255 --> 00:44:54.764 Any other African nation? 00:44:54.764 --> 00:44:56.242 Yes, all these hands. 00:44:56.242 --> 00:44:58.929 Yes, hallelujah, glory to God. 00:44:58.929 --> 00:45:00.402 And I'm saying the last day. 00:45:00.402 --> 00:45:01.807 Revival is coming from Africa. 00:45:01.807 --> 00:45:04.728 The whole world is changing. 00:45:05.615 --> 00:45:19.791 I remember that part that says and I saw, you know that's right through Africa, and I saw a white horse, then I saw a brown horse and then I saw a black horse. 00:45:19.791 --> 00:45:22.081 The time has come for Africa. 00:45:22.081 --> 00:45:29.273 Let us mount our horse in Jesus' name and let us, with haste, take this gospel to the ends of the earth. 00:45:29.273 --> 00:45:36.123 And so, felix and my brothers there, god bless you you can take that message back to your country because of our season and also our time. 00:45:36.123 --> 00:45:37.166 Thank you very much. 00:45:37.166 --> 00:45:44.041 And so this fire hallelujah For some reason I get excited when I get to this. 00:45:44.041 --> 00:45:46.309 This fire must not be hoarded. 00:45:46.309 --> 00:45:52.329 This fire, we shall carry it to the ends of the earth. 00:45:53.880 --> 00:46:03.628 I said in the first service how I was talking to a lady on the phone and then I realized she is not born again and I said straight away you need Jesus. 00:46:03.628 --> 00:46:08.364 And then she accepted to be led to the Lord and I led her to the Lord. 00:46:08.364 --> 00:46:21.411 There was somebody from children ministry in my office as I was leading this lady on the phone, a lady called Catherine on the phone in the sinner's prayer to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior. 00:46:21.411 --> 00:46:23.246 Time is short. 00:46:23.246 --> 00:46:26.969 We have no luxury in terms of time. 00:46:26.969 --> 00:46:31.452 We must arise and take this gospel to the ends of the earth. 00:46:32.119 --> 00:46:38.608 Pastor Ambrose, I'm seeing the way we have started this movement of going north, south, east and west. 00:46:38.608 --> 00:46:43.192 With Northgate, with Eastgate, southgate, we are here in the west. 00:46:43.192 --> 00:47:04.387 I am seeing another ring of churches planted beyond those ones, and these rings are flowing to the south and to the north, east and west, and by this revival season an acceleration is going to happen, I'm seeing, of us taking the gospel to the ends of the earth. 00:47:04.387 --> 00:47:09.509 And so you will see the banner, pastor Regan, I know the banner is somewhere. 00:47:09.509 --> 00:47:27.106 I'm sure we'll put it up and in that banner you have people now released, you know, to go have dominion among the nations, because John 8, 36 says whoever the Son of God says free is free indeed. 00:47:27.106 --> 00:47:38.304 And then spirit field, and then you will see in the banner a whole population of people now going to the nations, and there is one of them who is actually holding the globe like this. 00:47:38.304 --> 00:47:50.971 In the banner we shall raise here, it's in picture form, you'll see it when it's put up, and there's somebody holding the nations like this and the fire of the Holy Spirit is actually flowing through it. 00:47:50.971 --> 00:47:51.951 I like that picture. 00:47:51.951 --> 00:48:01.094 The fire of the Holy Spirit is flowing through the hands of that person and the fire is getting into the nations and the nations are being changed. 00:48:01.094 --> 00:48:12.563 Today we are lighting the torch of revival ignited by the Holy Spirit resting on every disciple and spreading to the nations. 00:48:12.563 --> 00:48:18.824 As we run out here after this service, you are carrying a torch and it's called the torch of revival. 00:48:19.306 --> 00:48:31.628 When you come here tomorrow 5.30, all the way to Friday, all the expositors are giving an exposition around this theme, you know, and we are running unbound. 00:48:31.628 --> 00:48:34.146 We are running to have dominion. 00:48:34.146 --> 00:48:46.931 And the dominion of Genesis 128 is being recovered once again and God is saying we are blessed and we shall go out there and actually become a blessing among the nations. 00:48:46.931 --> 00:48:51.391 And God has blessed us to go subdue, to go have dominion. 00:48:51.391 --> 00:49:02.193 And, like Pastor Ambrose says, of course not people, it's for the living creatures, but our dominion is to chase away the devil out of people's lives in the name of Jesus Christ. 00:49:02.193 --> 00:49:06.527 And the Bible says resist the devil, he'll do it, he shall flee from you. 00:49:06.527 --> 00:49:08.007 And so we really want to thank God. 00:49:08.007 --> 00:49:08.893 Even as I come to this place of prayer. 00:49:08.893 --> 00:49:09.286 He'll do what he shall flee from you. 00:49:09.286 --> 00:49:09.623 And so we really want to thank God. 00:49:09.623 --> 00:49:12.483 Even as I come to this place of prayer, I'll ask the worship team to come. 00:49:12.483 --> 00:49:14.891 There's that song Nifinyange. 00:49:14.891 --> 00:49:20.284 As they are coming, I'll be reading Ezekiel 37, from verse 7 to 10. 00:49:20.690 --> 00:49:21.699 This one leads us to prayer. 00:49:21.699 --> 00:49:26.804 May we all stand up now as I read Ezekiel 37, from verse 7 to 10. 00:49:26.804 --> 00:49:32.875 This is what it says. 00:49:32.875 --> 00:49:42.409 So I prophesied as I was commanded, and as I was prophesying there was a noise, a rattling sound, and bones came together, bone to bone. 00:49:42.409 --> 00:49:49.556 The Bible goes on to say I looked and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them. 00:49:49.556 --> 00:50:05.105 Then he said to me prophesy to the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to it this is what the sovereign Lord says come breath from the four winds and breath into this lane that they may live. 00:50:05.849 --> 00:50:11.351 The word I have spoken here is prophetic and the word I have spoken here is life. 00:50:11.351 --> 00:50:14.878 The word I've spoken here is breath. 00:50:14.878 --> 00:50:32.938 And just like William Seymour, long time ago at Azusa Street 312 in Los Angeles, california, was preaching from the same passage, by the way, when they were having 10 days of prayer and on the third day he was actually on verse 4. 00:50:32.938 --> 00:50:43.864 And then somebody said that which you are reading and that which you are speaking, the prophecy fulfilled, and you are now telling it forth and prophesying. 00:50:43.864 --> 00:50:45.596 May it happen to me. 00:50:45.596 --> 00:50:51.210 Prophesying, may it happen to me. 00:50:51.210 --> 00:50:52.092 And you know that gentleman. 00:50:52.092 --> 00:50:55.117 He was the first harvest and first fruit of that revival, 1906. 00:50:55.137 --> 00:51:00.773 And a lot of stuff changed from that time because of this man who actually responded to the call of God. 00:51:00.773 --> 00:51:12.360 This word I have released is able to bring a bone to a bone, is able to bring a bone to a bone, is able to bring life back into your life, because the Holy Spirit is the author of life. 00:51:12.360 --> 00:51:35.842 If you believe with me regarding this fire I have just talked about here, the fire shall become your potion and you shall never be the same again, from a nominal, mundane life that doesn't count to a life that changes nations, and somebody is receiving this one, and your life will never, never be the same again. 00:51:35.842 --> 00:51:38.898 Only the Holy Spirit is able to change somebody. 00:51:38.898 --> 00:51:49.592 To that extent, we'll sing one line of Nifinyange, prayerfully, and then I'll lead us in a short prayer as we launch Revival Season 11. 00:51:49.592 --> 00:52:22.539 Thank you, Father, in the name of Jesus. 00:53:13.271 --> 00:53:20.224 I know that you use humble beginnings to do uncommon things. 00:53:20.224 --> 00:53:41.400 I thank you for what you did in that upper room Over 2,000 years ago, a very ordinary place, you turned it into an extraordinary place just because you are God, and you ignited revival that has continued for over 2,000 years. 00:53:41.400 --> 00:53:52.242 From that humble epicenter, from that humble beginning, it has endured 2,000 years plus and the revival continues. 00:53:52.242 --> 00:54:02.199 My Lord, I know you are the same yesterday, you're the same today and you're the same tomorrow, and that nothing has ever changed concerning you. 00:54:02.199 --> 00:54:22.896 And you've said in the last days I'll pour out my spirit upon all flesh and and here we are, the people and God, you've promised to pour your spirit upon every one of us we have gathered here at the launch of revival season 11. 00:54:22.896 --> 00:54:26.021 And, god, we are here waiting on you. 00:54:26.021 --> 00:54:29.706 You have told us in Isaiah 40 and verse 31,. 00:54:29.706 --> 00:54:31.994 They that wait upon the Lord. 00:54:31.994 --> 00:54:36.697 You shall renew their strength, they shall fly with wings like eagles. 00:54:36.697 --> 00:54:38.797 They shall run and not be weary. 00:54:38.797 --> 00:54:40.817 They shall walk and not faint. 00:54:40.817 --> 00:55:11.284 Oh, holy Spirit, fire, holy Spirit, strength, I know that you are ready to descend upon your people and God, you're about to do it, like you did it at Pentecost many years ago, to make us strong again, to make us effective again, to enable us again to bring passion back, to bring joy back back, to bring joy back, to bring love back, to bring hope back, to heal once again. 00:55:11.284 --> 00:55:22.938 Holy Spirit, you are ready to descend and be able to bring the fire that works out those things that you, holy Spirit, only you can do. 00:55:22.938 --> 00:55:29.559 I know, according to Matthew 19, verse 26, these things are impossible, but with you, all things are possible. 00:55:29.559 --> 00:55:33.577 You are the author of revival and you are able to ignite revival. 00:55:33.909 --> 00:55:38.956 The material and the sacrifice for revival is here on the altar. 00:55:38.956 --> 00:56:00.521 Like the psalmist said in Psalm 51, verse 17, a broken and a contrite spirit is the sacrifice you are looking for, together, as a congregation and together as Parklands Baptist Church, and as I unite with Pastor Ambrose in agreement regarding revival and Parklands Baptist becoming the epicenter of global revival. 00:56:00.521 --> 00:56:24.072 My God, together, in this humble space, in this place here in Westlands, we open ourselves up, we present ourselves as sacrifice at the altar and together, as a congregation, we ask the fire of revival ignited by the Holy Spirit to now descend, and I invite us to lift our hands to God. 00:56:24.072 --> 00:56:36.998 Father, we thank you for this fire of the Holy Spirit that is now descending and is also descending upon every one of us without discrimination, and descending to send us out. 00:56:36.998 --> 00:56:49.807 We thank you, lord, for this fire, and each one of us, by lifting of hands, we receive this revival so that the prophetic destiny of Kenya may be realized. 00:56:49.807 --> 00:57:03.054 Through Parklands Baptist Church and revival flowing from here like a river to the rest of the nation and then to the nations, and Kenya rises to his prophetic destiny and his prophetic calling. 00:57:03.054 --> 00:57:15.592 My God, here we, parklands Baptist Church, as a church, lifting our hands up to you and praying revival fire fall on me, each one of us. 00:57:15.592 --> 00:57:16.735 You can pray that prayer. 00:57:16.735 --> 00:57:19.501 Revival fire fall on me. 00:57:19.501 --> 00:57:25.603 My God, I thank you for this fire, revival fire falling on each one of us. 00:57:25.603 --> 00:57:39.137 The Holy Spirit, he's the one, the author of that fire, and I know somebody can sense the fire of God upon your life and I want to say don't resist the move of the Holy Spirit, don't resist the fire of God. 00:57:39.510 --> 00:57:44.420 The young generation of Africa don't resist the fire of the Holy Spirit. 00:57:44.420 --> 00:57:49.336 The same way God's Spirit came upon David in 1 Samuel, 16, verse 13. 00:57:49.336 --> 00:57:52.918 I'm seeing very many In a vision, prophetic vision. 00:57:52.918 --> 00:58:03.135 I'm seeing many young people and I'm seeing the fire of the Holy Spirit Descending upon a whole army Of young people, and God is doing it. 00:58:03.135 --> 00:58:07.378 Thank you, my Lord, for this fire that is descending upon so many young people. 00:58:07.670 --> 00:58:12.052 And, as Parklands Baptist Church, we open ourselves to this fire and we pray. 00:58:12.052 --> 00:58:20.902 The same way the fire functioned at Pentecost and then, after that, we walked with the disciples through the whole book of Acts. 00:58:20.902 --> 00:58:37.594 The Lord, a repeat of the book of Acts shall actually be replicated through this church, parklands Baptist Church, and therefore we surrender ourselves completely to you and we pray and we say Lord, have your way, lord, do your will. 00:58:37.594 --> 00:58:40.460 I am here, we are here, you are able. 00:58:40.460 --> 00:58:41.481 We are not able. 00:58:41.481 --> 00:58:52.411 Make us able Now, anoint us with power once again and lead us out of this church as witnesses of the gospel to the ends of the earth. 00:58:52.773 --> 00:58:59.275 And as this fire is coming down, if you are not born again, let this fire lead you to the cross. 00:58:59.275 --> 00:59:03.146 Let this fire cause you to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior. 00:59:03.146 --> 00:59:10.864 If you're here and sick in the body, may this fire heal you, even following on the screen, and you're following this service. 00:59:10.864 --> 00:59:16.041 May the fire of the Holy Spirit consume that disease in Jesus' name, whatever it is. 00:59:16.041 --> 00:59:20.882 If you're here and you're in debt, may this fire also take away that debt. 00:59:20.882 --> 00:59:24.300 Whatever your situation, the fire is able to deal with that. 00:59:24.300 --> 00:59:35.972 And, god, I thank you for ways in which you are moving in this place once again, like you did at Pentecost, and we bless you now as we launch Revival Season
