Whether big or small we must as the body of Christ as the Church be joyful that this is happening today. If we open our eyes there is something amazing wonderful happening world wide. Even in my own life. The Holy spirit is moving. A fire and desire for God is spreading. We should simply join our brothers and sisters in prayer and ask God to continue to work in all of us. God bless you all and I pray that we can all experience a revival in our own life's. Amen!
I say we take it for what it is, the Lord moving on people's hearts which is a praise worthy thing. We shouldn't overanalyze it. Right now it's a good thing. It will take time to see the fruit that is produced from it to know whether it's lasting or not.
I would love to take it for what it is. But.... What is it? Now I could believe your RUclips comment. Or I can take it for what it is..... Just a RUclips comment. See the problem? You coming into the discussion and deciding for all of us "what it is" is weird.
@@mikhailyaremkiv If you want to know what it is why not go there to find out for yourself? It is evident that right now people are repenting and turning to God. Is that somehow a bad thing in your mind?
No, "take it for what it is" is deceiving. Our hearts lie to us (Jeremiah 17:9-10) The Bible says to test everything against the Word of God, so we are not deceived (1 John 4:1-21) LGBTQ student led (Leviticus 20:13) Women preaching (1 Timothy 2:11-14) Hillsong/Bethel music being played constantly (Ezekiel 28:12-19, Isaiah 14:12-15, Revelation 5:8, 12:14, 20:10) The biggest reason you should not sing songs from Hillsong, Bethel, Jesus Culture, and Elevation is that their music embodies a false theology of worship. "Spirit filling” does not come as the result of singing. Rather, “Spirit filling” comes first by reading God's Word; singing is the response. . . . Clear as these passages are in declaring that Christian singing is a response to the Word of Christ, and to being filled with the Spirit, it is hard to keep from turning the cause and effect around. Music, with its stimulating power, can too easily be seen as the cause and the “Spirit filling” as the effect. As we draw closer to the return of Jesus, Satan and his armies are doubling down on how they can use music to influence people-away from God. The sins of Hillsong’s leaders should be a red flag that these songs are not from sound doctrine, and it is best to avoid it.
@@HeidisHereAndThere I don't think we are referring to the same event. This revival has nothing to do with the churches that you mention. I am referring to what is happening at Asbury University where there has been repentance, prayer, preaching the word of God and praising God around the clock. If that is not a move of God can you please describe what you believe a move of God looks like?
Good for you Brother and Romans 12:1-21 was the word that many Believers neglect but the young folks at Asbury repented because of the scripture and God refreshed their souls
Your commentary on Nehemiah Chapter 8 and 9 are great regarding revival, especially Chapter 9, where you write about the four signs of revival, brokenness of heart, reflection on God‘s goodness, recognition of our sinfulness, and renewal of our obedience. Bless you and your ministry
Thank you, Pastor Guzik. Your studious approach is welcome, and at the same time recognizing God's Unique and Sovereign Power to do revival any way the Lord chooses. Exciting to realize that the Holy Spirit is not constrained, nor contained by religious traditions and human interference. Blessings.
Have you spoken with anyone who is AT ASBURY? I’m a PhD student at Asbury and interacted with you when I was a Calvary Chapel missionary in Europe and you were in Siegen. Dave, I wish you would have asked people who are there. Hundreds, if not thousands of people especially young people are getting saved every day at Asbury. The whole schedule is a slow and steady cycle of worship, prayer, messages, altar calls, calling people to salvation, repentance, sanctification, etc. Why are people saying there is a lack of preaching? There are multiple Bible messages every day. There are numerous testimonies of miraculous healing that are currently being archived at Asbury. There are several news reports of the Asbury revival already spread to other schools, such as Cedarville, Lee, etc.
My husband and I have been missionaries to Russia (I am Russian), currently living in Estonia, for over 30 years now. Thank you so much for your genuine comment. We have been watching this revival from across the ocean and believe it's real!!!
I have been listening to your series on acts over the past few weeks. It has been so helpful when understanding the difference between revival and awakening. I appreciate you sharing. This is so helpful!
After reading a great book by E.H. Broadbent on Church history, it struck me that denominations and sects have fractured the true Church of Jesus. So, yes, there will be criticism of any revivial... real or pseudo. Test the Spirits.
Justification, Santification, Glorification...Excellent explanation, David. You are such a blessing as you always point people to God and the Scriptures. Amen!
Well I missed it today working out of town working late I will catch up for sure this weekend.. just going to say I love all my brothers and sisters.. brother guzik what a man!
Excellent perspective...common sense, finally. After reading infinite pros and cons on Asbury, some verging on hostile criticism, there are attributes of this event that appear scripturally sound. I've been in meetings where the gospel itself wasn't directly presented but the convicting power of God fell and people got right anyway because there was openness to His will.
I really appreciated your differentiation between revival and spiritual awakening (preaching the Gospel). I agree. These are Believers that may and can lead to Salvation for unbelievers.
I love in the last day is the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, and how this revival is shaking the world harder than all the earthquakes! I love that the Jesus Revelation movie just came out, which I believe is going to add to the explosion!❤
Meet Jesus and you will it is him. For the religious mindset GOS IS MOVING. YOU WILL NOT STOP GOD. People are meeting Jesus. The religious mind will be offended. IF THIS IS YOU GIVE YOUR HEART TO JESUS.
I can tell you THIS... 1) LGBTQ student lead- satanic 2) Women preachers- not Biblical 3) No reading of the Gospel- not Biblical 4) Emotionally charged Hillsong/Bethel music- satanic 5) This is their 8th "revival" since their founding in 1890, and every single one was held during the month of February. 🤔 This in itself would make you wonder if this is genuine. 6) Throwing money off the balconies onto the stage- Sensationalism There were many people at this revival. We have no idea who was actually born again, and needed revival. And we have no idea who was there that weren't yet born again being emotionally charged up in the moment, and the music that was specifically made to "set a feeling/mood". We can only pray for those people who were there, that they genuinely have come to be born again Believers in Christ, and pray that other locations will also come to Jesus Christ as their personal Savior.
Priscilla, along with her husband Aquila, taught new convert Apollos the Word of God. Junia seems to have been one of the various lesser apostles listed in the New Testament--see Romans 16:7. (There were the 12 'apostles of the Lamb,' and there were other apostles.) Philip had four daughters who prophesied. Paul gave instructions for women prophesying in church. So yes, a woman teaching in seminary is fine.
Thank you Bro Guzik for your very sound and scriptural explaination of what a revival should be.Your careful observation and answers to critics is very impartial and balanced.Praise the Lord
I think that people are tired of too much Government and News. They want to hear God’s voice. They want a refreshing flow of God’s Holy Spirit falling among them. They are participating secure and lifting up holy hands praising God. Jesus arrives, we think is sooner than later.
An excellent fair assessment of the revival base on history resources and comparison of articles that are real fact-finding articles or articles written on the writer's own bias assumption of a past revival.
Re. finding a church, my wife--before she married me and still lived in the Philippines--used to ride a train for _two hours_ each way every Sunday to get to what she deemed was the best church she could find. I agree with David. Each saint has to seek God's wisdom, and we must be willing to be inconvenienced.
Nice hearing...more about Our Lord, ads on TV, movies Jesus Revolution, Left Behind Rise of the Anti Christ..and now this...Hey David, a friend from Simi Valley, Antione n girls...hope u r well!
First Reconciliation precedes First Eucharist (Communion). Typically, a child receives their First Reconciliation and Eucharist in 2nd Grade; however, we encourage you to wait until your child is ready. It is never too late for your child to receive their Sacraments.
The 1970 Asbury Revival resulted in the "Jesus Revelation" movement. What will today's revival lead to? This could be the beginninng of a new movement by God.
"Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation," - 2 Corinthians 5:18 NKJV
What??? Where did you get that the 70s Asbury revival "resulted" in the Jesus Revolution??? It started on the West Coast in the Hippies. Nothing in Asbury was connected to that movement but if you have other info connecting it, please let us all in.
Was desiring of God that He would cause this revival fire to spread across your nation n to the nations of the earth n looks like it is taking place.Praise the Lord and Glory to Him in the Highest
I also watched some of the videos and never did hear the Word of God preached, the Bible kjv talks about a familiar Spirit. I know folks who will pay to go hear gospel singing but would never go to a church where they know the Word of God is being preached. The songs i hear them sing never mentions the Blood of Jesus, the cross or that place where Jesus is. Maybe i said too much but i think i am a pretty good fruit inspector.
I dont know if I would call it a "revival" but how can it not be a move of God. I didnt see people running around yelling and screaming, people falling out all over the place like I see in on a regular basis. This was prayer and worship.
My question- How do I help my 25 year old son to understand that the Bible is the Word of God. He believes there is a God but he also belives/ insists that the Bible was written and printed by man. He dont believe in " God inspired". Pastor your input/ advice will be greatly appreciated.
I don’t care if only one person came out of there with a real relationship with Christ. I have seen so many throwing their opinion if it real or not. Sounds like a bunch of Pharisees. “Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.” Luke 15:10 KJV
I remain Skeptically Optimistic since the mark that is missing in every great revival is some 'supernatural fingerprint' and have missed point 3 and 4. Honestly what I see them experience is what most of us experience every church service. I think this speaks most of both the leadership and also the kids in this experience. The students are loving it because it is NEW and this is great! I think it is AWESOME that they are EXPERIENCING the presence of God, but if this is the first time they had this, then I am glad they are FINALLY experiencing what many experience regularly.
I’ve never been to a church service that’s lasted nine days, day and night apparently, so far. I think that’s supernatural. I haven’t seen something like this in my lifetime. 🤷♂️ Something’s going on. ✝️
@@cheerwhiner7829... first. Nobody has been there the entire time, and I have been at 7day concerts and week long Missions and Apologetics conferences, 11 day mission trips where we slept a few hours a night and someone was always up worshiping and praying... But yes... that is still supernatural, but it doesnt make it a "revival"... it makes it CHURCH in a real way.
If it's real, then the "revival" will spread throughout the world, not locally or regionally. Use discernment and for sure "test the spirits". I've been (off/on) involved in various Calvary Chapel fellowships since the mid-1980's (I'm now approaching 80 years old) and saved before then, I've personally experienced "after glow" times where I had preferred being in church and didn't want to leave because the Holy Spirit was moving so evidently amongst many. That was NOT a revival then, but pure Koinonia fellowship and worship. Perhaps it would good if the post-modernist church would revisit the first century church to learn how to model "church" today after those early group meetings. Church is NOT about a huge megachurch building, or pastors making CEO salaries, selling books and tapes. It's all about Jesus, not men. The Scriptures ae clear that believers are to NOT be followers of men, but Christ alone.
Not to be argumentative, but the Revival that happened on what's called Azusa Street out in California with Wigglesworth and oh I can't remember that one woman's name but she was wild Kathryn Kuhlman that's her name, that wasn't worldwide
That was just made up by you. The word revival is not in the Bible, but we do have Pentecost. It doesnt say pentecost went around the world it happened in an upper room. Im not sure its revival either, but Im not making rules up. Its at the very l least that God showed up for those teens. That is true. If His presence lingered and people could feel it, let it be that then. Everyone squabbling over the word “revival” is irrelevant to what those teens are celebrating in Christ. And the saints should just be celebrating along side them.
@@gaylynjeffers7677 🤯 💥💣TEENAGERS AND COLLEGE STUDENTS REPENTING 💣💥 Nothing else matters. Not our religion. Not our judgments. Not our hypocrisy. Nothing. Watch it wrap itself around this globe 🔥
@@gaylynjeffers7677 I've done some study into the leaders of these "revivals" There doctrine was way off. I believe Kulman was a fraud. Also wigglesworth. Research it with non charismatic sources.
At first I thought you were the actor Richard Dreyfuss! I heard people driving hours to go to the Revival, but you don't have to that far to have rivial! It's Not special!!!! You can pray, praise, worship God right where you are! God is Omnipresent He's everywhere! Rivavial means to revive your walk with God! But it's only for those that are saved! A person not saved are dead in their trespasses, they have to be regenerated alive in Christ! It pays to read the Bible yourself & not fall for everything out there!
Good evening, around the 21 minute mark you stated no one made made this happen. Are you sure? Some are suggesting Rick Warren and Francis Chan may have had some involvement in making this happen. Orchestrated perhaps
David - hi this is SheldonDickinson- I received an e-mail supposedly from you. It said it wanted money from me and to send the money to Nigeria. The e-mail said I was being attacked by evil spirits and and "you" would pray for me when I send cash. Thought you should know.
I would like to know why some Seminaries (particularly one in my area of the nation) has a "Climate Change" adjunct Professor... This seminary ties the Climate Change agenda with "Loving your Neighbor" (Social Justice agenda). Why would a seminary spend time teaching this (or allowing it to be taught) as part of their curriculum and preparation of men and women for ministry? I would love to hear your comment on this Pastor Guzik. Thank you for your program!
10:00 Revival is A MOVE OF GOD'S SPIRIT among the people of God. They are being REVIVED IN THEIR LIFE With God, in their Christian Commitment there is a work of Cleansing. A work of INCREASED DEVOTION ONTO THE LORD. REVIVAL is a MOVE OF GOD'S SPIRIT AMONG THE PEOPLE OF GOD. ...and yes there is a preaching of the Gospel but it's not primarily evangelistic. SPIRITUAL AWAKENING is when there is an OUTPOURING OF THE HOLY Spirit upon a community and then you'd have many coming to CHRIST JESUS And PREACHING OF THE GOSPEL.
I think the proof of revival is revealed in the future. Did the repentence become a transformation of lives & the increase of the spread of the gospel? Did it awaken & spread beyond the college campuses? Is it the work of God or the emotions & doing of man. These things should be revealed in the future as impacting long term more than temporary.
Is this a true revival? Time will tell. I have watched very little footage, but what I saw was a lot of emotionalism, which does not equal revival. Revival comes with the consistent presentation of the Gospel, repentance, confession of sin, and changed lives among Christians. Hopefully, that is happening. Chris Rosebrough watched 16 hours of footage, and stated that the Gospel was not presented. Big problem. And we are now hearing reports that this 'spontaneous revival' was planned weeks in advance. Again, hopefully, lives are being changed. But let's keep in mind that there is no great revival promised in the last days. In fact, just the opposite, the Scripture states that there will be a great apostacy, a falling away. And I believe he mentioned that 2/3 of the attendees were from out of state. People don't need to travel to Asbury to 'experience' revival. If one wants revival it can happen in his own church.
Brother your right on with what you said, i also watched some of the videos and never did hear the Word of God preached, the Bible kjv talks about a familiar Spirit. I know folks who will pay to go hear gospel singing but would never go to a church where they know the Word of God is being preached. The songs i hear them sing never mentions the Blood of Jesus, the cross or that place where Jesus is. Maybe i said too much but i think i am a pretty good fruit inspector.
The leader of all revivals in history was and is The Holy Spirit. He does it is His way. He will never obey the plans or human templates. That makes the revivals unique. The place of human excellency was and will not be the place of Holy Spirit. I recommend you to read the book of Eddie L. Hyatt - 2000 Years of Charismatic Christianity: A 21st Century Look at Church History from a Pentecostal/Charismatic Prospective. In the history all revivals movements started by The Holy Spirit and ended by the rules, programs, fences and human criticism. We are trained to manufacture revivals with black painted walls, smoke machines, night-club lights, super professional instruments and prominent names forgetting that the One who produces revival is the Lord Jesus through the Holy Spirit. When God chooses the simple and insignificant things to show His glory we don't like, we become suspicious and arrogant. These two factors determined the Holy Spirit to always withdraw, leaving us with the pomp and show of Sunday.
Already saw video of a person babbling in "tongues" without interpretation, and nobody telling him to be quiet or leave. So, there's good and bad in this. Asbury's 1970 "revival"started with the pastor saying that he wanted to start the service with testimonies, so that's not the way to start a service, all services need worship and the word of God presented. I also don't know if this meeting started with preaching and teaching of God's word rightly divided. Shouldn't we leave all Lord's Day worship services revived?
Does the Bible prescribe how a service should be started? I believe all those judging this experience are walking in spiritual arrogance. When you get that many people together somebody is going to do something that others don't agree with doctrinally that does make the whole event of the devil. Let's not miss this opportunity to pray for these people whose hearts are open to receive. Let's pray for them and not judge them from the sidelines.
Your forgetting about the healing about people in wheel chairs being healed. Jesus can do as he will. We are nothing but a pile of dust. Only people that are not walking with the Lord will always try to discredit this revival. Peoples intelligence are a mere pebble compared to our Lord and savior.
I don't like progressive worship music. Drums and amplified guitars create tension that is not reverent. I don't like the idea of a "worship team" is just doesn't seem right. Is there something wrong with me?
Nothing wrong with your preferences, brother, unless you are looking down on others who have different preferences than yours or saying that “God doesn’t work that way”, like so many are doing.
I'm not seeking comfort, I'm rejecting having a rock concert in place of worshipping God. I hear electrically amplified noises to glorify performers on stage, drowning out the voices of congregation. Most are not even trying to compete with the show.
@Julian Pechacek understood. I still believe that we should be seeking God. You have expressed your opinion, but you have not said what God is saying. We spend a lot of time speaking for God and less time listening to God's heart. I'm concerned that we're missing God with all of our dogmas.
I feel like you are being condescending toward me. That is what so-called "Christians" do when a brother is struggling. Forget it, I don't need to be told to pray more. You don't care how I'm struggling. Please keep your arrogant advice to yourself.
2 Chronicles 7:14 King James Version 14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Wake me up when this happens...until then you are in danger of being a self-ascribed prophet....my advice? Talk less pray more.
David Guzik is one of the most genuine believers out there who has do so much work for the kingdom, I don't think this is a personal attack but rather a response to people like me who want to know what does the scripture say about Revival . I actively read his bible commentary which is a collection of commentaries old and new and I highly recommend it, very insightful , lot of history, context, info and discernment. Purely unadulterated stuff but not boring very stimulating and intuitive. Its called ' Enduring word.' I was reading from the commentary in the book of Habbakuk chapter 3 what a revival means in biblical sense. I would highly recommend you let go of anger or frustration from legalistic christians and be open to biblical perspectives. We worship in spirit and truth. The truth is the word of god, it is the letter of things. We need both the letter and the spirit of things to revive the churches. If the spirit is present and the letter is absent it remains an incomplete gospel, not a full gospel. God bless.
These people can spend as much time as they want because they don't have to work, they are self -employed, they don't have any mortgage to pay and they don't need any money to feed their children. If this is a spontaneous gathering they are very musically talented because they know all the songs and they can sing in unison. They seam well revived before the gathering and I wonder if some one was orchestrating. How come they sing songs from Hillsong and Bethel? Smells not legit.
Whether big or small we must as the body of Christ as the Church be joyful that this is happening today. If we open our eyes there is something amazing wonderful happening world wide. Even in my own life. The Holy spirit is moving. A fire and desire for God is spreading. We should simply join our brothers and sisters in prayer and ask God to continue to work in all of us. God bless you all and I pray that we can all experience a revival in our own life's. Amen!
Amen Amen

Your commentary on Nehemiah Chapter 8 and 9 are great regarding revival, especially Chapter 9, where you write about the four signs of revival, brokenness of heart, reflection on God‘s goodness, recognition of our sinfulness, and renewal of our obedience.

Instead of thinking, why don't you start praying for revelation? God will show and tell you so that you know for sure, instead of just thinking.
Thank you, Pastor Guzik. Your studious approach is welcome, and at the same time recognizing God's Unique and Sovereign Power to do revival any way the Lord chooses. Exciting to realize that the Holy Spirit is not constrained, nor contained by religious traditions and human interference. Blessings.

Dave, I wish you would have asked people who are there. Hundreds, if not thousands of people especially young people are getting saved every day at Asbury. The whole schedule is a slow and steady cycle of worship, prayer, messages, altar calls, calling people to salvation, repentance, sanctification, etc.
Why are people saying there is a lack of preaching? There are multiple Bible messages every day.
There are numerous testimonies of miraculous healing that are currently being archived at Asbury.
There are several news reports of the Asbury revival already spread to other schools, such as Cedarville, Lee, etc.

I have been listening to your series on acts over the past few weeks. It has been so helpful when understanding the difference between revival and awakening. I appreciate you sharing. This is so helpful!
If it is a move of the Holy Spirit for real, the organizational mainstream church, will try to dissect it out of existence.
After reading a great book by E.H. Broadbent on Church history, it struck me that denominations and sects have fractured the true Church of Jesus. So, yes, there will be criticism of any revivial... real or pseudo. Test the Spirits.
💯 absolutely true! And the organized denominations are pushing back. At least on social media they are. It's so predictable

Whether it be Spiritual Revival or Spiritual Awareness modern Christians desperately need either of the two 🙏
Revival is that peaple Come to Jesus and repenting from there sins. Just like Jona in neneve.
Thank you for your absolute honesty, David! I believe you are speaking in the Holy Spirit!
So blessed by this session. More of God's grace sir 🙏🏿
I love in the last day is the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, and how this revival is shaking the world harder than all the earthquakes! I love that the Jesus Revelation movie just came out, which I believe is going to add to the explosion!❤

I can tell you THIS...
1) LGBTQ student lead- satanic
2) Women preachers- not Biblical
3) No reading of the Gospel- not Biblical
4) Emotionally charged Hillsong/Bethel music- satanic

GOD WORKS THROUGH THE EXTRAORDINARY. AMEN
fantastic balanced overview, very well considered Dave, thank you. nice wesley bobble head too btw haha
Forget about deep theology ( which is important in its place)
This is about people simply crying out to Abba Father nothing more nothing less
Priscilla, along with her husband Aquila, taught new convert Apollos the Word of God.
Junia seems to have been one of the various lesser apostles listed in the New Testament--see Romans 16:7. (There were the 12 'apostles of the Lamb,' and there were other apostles.)
Philip had four daughters who prophesied.
Paul gave instructions for women prophesying in church.
So yes, a woman teaching in seminary is fine.
Thank you Bro Guzik for your very sound and scriptural explaination of what a revival should be.Your careful observation and answers to critics is very impartial and balanced.Praise the Lord
Paul, thanks for the kind words.
I think that people are tired of too much Government and News. They want to hear God’s voice. They want a refreshing flow of God’s Holy Spirit falling among them. They are participating secure and lifting up holy hands praising God. Jesus arrives, we think is sooner than later.
Revival without reformation is the the seed that falls on thorny ground
An excellent fair assessment of the revival base on history resources and comparison of articles that are real fact-finding articles or articles written on the writer's own bias assumption of a past revival.

Thanks for sharing that testimony. Very encouraging!
There is a definite powerful, calming, peaceful sense of God happening. I feel it and I'm not a religious person, but do believe in God.
I am concerned and will wait and see......

First Reconciliation precedes First Eucharist (Communion). Typically, a child receives their First Reconciliation and Eucharist in 2nd Grade; however, we encourage you to wait until your child is ready. It is never too late for your child to receive their Sacraments.
The 1970 Asbury Revival resulted in the "Jesus Revelation" movement. What will today's revival lead to? This could be the beginninng of a new movement by God.
It began on Feb 8th.
"Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation," - 2 Corinthians 5:18 NKJV
What??? Where did you get that the 70s Asbury revival "resulted" in the Jesus Revolution??? It started on the West Coast in the Hippies. Nothing in Asbury was connected to that movement but if you have other info connecting it, please let us all in.
Was desiring of God that He would cause this revival fire to spread across your nation n to the nations of the earth n looks like it is taking place.Praise the Lord and Glory to Him in the Highest
We should not presume to judge what happened at Asbury. God will reveal whether it was of Him or not in His time as He did with the Day of Pentecost
Why is this a question????? God is moving on the hearts who are hungry and HE is feeding them.
I also watched some of the videos and never did hear the Word of God preached, the Bible kjv talks about a familiar Spirit. I know folks who will pay to go hear gospel singing but would never go to a church where they know the Word of God is being preached. The songs i hear them sing never mentions the Blood of Jesus, the cross or that place where Jesus is.
Maybe i said too much but i think i am a pretty good fruit inspector.
I dont know if I would call it a "revival" but how can it not be a move of God. I didnt see people running around yelling and screaming, people falling out all over the place like I see in on a regular basis. This was prayer and worship.
My question- How do I help my 25 year old son to understand that the Bible is the Word of God. He believes there is a God but he also belives/ insists that the Bible was written and printed by man. He dont believe in " God inspired".
Pastor your input/ advice will be greatly appreciated.
I don’t care if only one person came out of there with a real relationship with Christ. I have seen so many throwing their opinion if it real or not. Sounds like a bunch of Pharisees.
“Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.”
Luke 15:10 KJV
I remain Skeptically Optimistic since the mark that is missing in every great revival is some 'supernatural fingerprint' and have missed point 3 and 4.
Honestly what I see them experience is what most of us experience every church service. I think this speaks most of both the leadership and also the kids in this experience. The students are loving it because it is NEW and this is great! I think it is AWESOME that they are EXPERIENCING the presence of God, but if this is the first time they had this, then I am glad they are FINALLY experiencing what many experience regularly.
I’ve never been to a church service that’s lasted nine days, day and night apparently, so far.
I think that’s supernatural.
I haven’t seen something like this in my lifetime.
🤷♂️
Something’s going on. ✝️
@@cheerwhiner7829... first. Nobody has been there the entire time, and I have been at 7day concerts and week long Missions and Apologetics conferences, 11 day mission trips where we slept a few hours a night and someone was always up worshiping and praying...
But yes... that is still supernatural, but it doesnt make it a "revival"... it makes it CHURCH in a real way.
Paul uses the phrase God our Savior several times in the New Testament so it's not only an Old Testament concept.
Without repentance and deliverance from sins there is no revival.
If it's real, then the "revival" will spread throughout the world, not locally or regionally. Use discernment and for sure "test the spirits". I've been (off/on) involved in various Calvary Chapel fellowships since the mid-1980's (I'm now approaching 80 years old) and saved before then, I've personally experienced "after glow" times where I had preferred being in church and didn't want to leave because the Holy Spirit was moving so evidently amongst many. That was NOT a revival then, but pure Koinonia fellowship and worship. Perhaps it would good if the post-modernist church would revisit the first century church to learn how to model "church" today after those early group meetings. Church is NOT about a huge megachurch building, or pastors making CEO salaries, selling books and tapes. It's all about Jesus, not men. The Scriptures ae clear that believers are to NOT be followers of men, but Christ alone.
Not to be argumentative, but the Revival that happened on what's called Azusa Street out in California with Wigglesworth and oh I can't remember that one woman's name but she was wild Kathryn Kuhlman that's her name, that wasn't worldwide
That was just made up by you. The word revival is not in the Bible, but we do have Pentecost. It doesnt say pentecost went around the world it happened in an upper room.
Im not sure its revival either, but Im not making rules up. Its at the very l least that God showed up for those teens. That is true. If His presence lingered and people could feel it, let it be that then.
Everyone squabbling over the word “revival” is irrelevant to what those teens are celebrating in Christ. And the saints should just be celebrating along side them.
@@chucklemethis3329 splitting hairs, we can only use the words that we know,

💥💣TEENAGERS AND COLLEGE STUDENTS REPENTING 💣💥
Nothing else matters. Not our religion. Not our judgments. Not our hypocrisy. Nothing.
Watch it wrap itself around this globe 🔥
@@gaylynjeffers7677 I've done some study into the leaders of these "revivals" There doctrine was way off. I believe Kulman was a fraud. Also wigglesworth. Research it with non charismatic sources.
Yes it is.
Seek God.
At first I thought you were the actor Richard Dreyfuss! I heard people driving hours to go to the Revival, but you don't have to that far to have rivial! It's Not special!!!! You can pray, praise, worship God right where you are! God is Omnipresent He's everywhere! Rivavial means to revive your walk with God! But it's only for those that are saved! A person not saved are dead in their trespasses, they have to be regenerated alive in Christ! It pays to read the Bible yourself & not fall for everything out there!
Much missed in all this revival reporting is: Asbury had a miny-revival back in 2006, which lasted probably 3-5 days.
Good evening, around the 21 minute mark you stated no one made made this happen. Are you sure? Some are suggesting Rick Warren and Francis Chan may have had some involvement in making this happen. Orchestrated perhaps
There's no evidence that I know of that would validate that idea. Blessings!

Sorry I missed the live chat. I just saw this video was out 🙁
David - hi this is SheldonDickinson- I received an e-mail supposedly from you.
It said it wanted money from me and to send the money to Nigeria. The e-mail said I was being attacked by evil spirits and and "you" would pray for me when I send cash.
Thought you should know.
Thanks for the notification. Lots of imposters out there.
I would like to know why some Seminaries (particularly one in my area of the nation) has a "Climate Change" adjunct Professor... This seminary ties the Climate Change agenda with "Loving your Neighbor" (Social Justice agenda).
Why would a seminary spend time teaching this (or allowing it to be taught) as part of their curriculum and preparation of men and women for ministry?
I would love to hear your comment on this Pastor Guzik.
Thank you for your program!
Lord said, "Don't believe and go don't there, in Matthew 24, for Satan's miracle is an abomination/image that causes desolation.
If he wants to know....he'd just go
10:00 Revival is A MOVE OF GOD'S SPIRIT among the people of God. They are being REVIVED IN THEIR LIFE With God, in their Christian Commitment there is a work of Cleansing. A work of INCREASED DEVOTION ONTO THE LORD.
REVIVAL is a MOVE OF GOD'S SPIRIT AMONG THE PEOPLE OF GOD. ...and yes there is a preaching of the Gospel but it's not primarily evangelistic.
SPIRITUAL AWAKENING is when there is an OUTPOURING OF THE HOLY Spirit upon a community and then you'd have many coming to CHRIST JESUS And PREACHING OF THE GOSPEL.
I think the proof of revival is revealed in the future. Did the repentence become a transformation of lives & the increase of the spread of the gospel? Did it awaken & spread beyond the college campuses? Is it the work of God or the emotions & doing of man. These things should be revealed in the future as impacting long term more than temporary.
Is this a true revival? Time will tell. I have watched very little footage, but what I saw was a lot of emotionalism, which does not equal revival.
Revival comes with the consistent presentation of the Gospel, repentance, confession of sin, and changed lives among Christians. Hopefully, that is happening.
Chris Rosebrough watched 16 hours of footage, and stated that the Gospel was not presented. Big problem.
And we are now hearing reports that this 'spontaneous revival' was planned weeks in advance.
Again, hopefully, lives are being changed. But let's keep in mind that there is no great revival promised in the last days. In fact, just the opposite, the Scripture states that there will be a great apostacy, a falling away.
And I believe he mentioned that 2/3 of the attendees were from out of state. People don't need to travel to Asbury to 'experience' revival. If one wants revival it can happen in his own church.
Brother your right on with what you said, i also watched some of the videos and never did hear the Word of God preached, the Bible kjv talks about a familiar Spirit. I know folks who will pay to go hear gospel singing but would never go to a church where they know the Word of God is being preached. The songs i hear them sing never mentions the Blood of Jesus, the cross or that place where Jesus is.
Maybe i said too much but i think i am a pretty good fruit inspector.
If this revival could end this world's misery, maybe...otherwise, its absurd...
The leader of all revivals in history was and is The Holy Spirit. He does it is His way. He will never obey the plans or human templates. That makes the revivals unique. The place of human excellency was and will not be the place of Holy Spirit. I recommend you to read the book of Eddie L. Hyatt - 2000 Years of Charismatic Christianity: A 21st Century Look at Church History from a Pentecostal/Charismatic Prospective. In the history all revivals movements started by The Holy Spirit and ended by the rules, programs, fences and human criticism. We are trained to manufacture revivals with black painted walls, smoke machines, night-club lights, super professional instruments and prominent names forgetting that the One who produces revival is the Lord Jesus through the Holy Spirit. When God chooses the simple and insignificant things to show His glory we don't like, we become suspicious and arrogant. These two factors determined the Holy Spirit to always withdraw, leaving us with the pomp and show of Sunday.
So, whats the verdict? Is it real or fake, David?
Mario Murillo has a great blog on Revival .
Just send someone
Social media has been instrumental in services and revival. Brownsville was a prime example.
People were healed thru, touching their screens.
Already saw video of a person babbling in "tongues" without interpretation, and nobody telling him to be quiet or leave. So, there's good and bad in this. Asbury's 1970 "revival"started with the pastor saying that he wanted to start the service with testimonies, so that's not the way to start a service, all services need worship and the word of God presented. I also don't know if this meeting started with preaching and teaching of God's word rightly divided. Shouldn't we leave all Lord's Day worship services revived?
Does the Bible prescribe how a service should be started? I believe all those judging this experience are walking in spiritual arrogance. When you get that many people together somebody is going to do something that others don't agree with doctrinally that does make the whole event of the devil. Let's not miss this opportunity to pray for these people whose hearts are open to receive. Let's pray for them and not judge them from the sidelines.
Your forgetting about the healing about people in wheel chairs being healed. Jesus can do as he will. We are nothing but a pile of dust. Only people that are not walking with the Lord will always try to discredit this revival. Peoples intelligence are a mere pebble compared to our Lord and savior.
The Evangelism will come out of this… next
I don't like progressive worship music.
Drums and amplified guitars create tension that is not reverent.
I don't like the idea of a "worship team" is just doesn't seem right.
Is there something wrong with me?
Nothing wrong with your preferences, brother, unless you are looking down on others who have different preferences than yours or saying that “God doesn’t work that way”, like so many are doing.
Remember worship is not for our comfort. Ask God what He wants and give Him that. See Psalm 150.
I'm not seeking comfort, I'm rejecting having a rock concert in place of worshipping God. I hear electrically amplified noises to glorify performers on stage, drowning out the voices of congregation. Most are not even trying to compete with the show.
@Julian Pechacek understood. I still believe that we should be seeking God. You have expressed your opinion, but you have not said what God is saying. We spend a lot of time speaking for God and less time listening to God's heart. I'm concerned that we're missing God with all of our dogmas.
I feel like you are being condescending toward me. That is what so-called "Christians" do when a brother is struggling.
Forget it, I don't need to be told to pray more. You don't care how I'm struggling.
Please keep your arrogant advice to yourself.
2 Chronicles 7:14
King James Version
14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Wake me up when this happens...until then you are in danger of being a self-ascribed prophet....my advice? Talk less pray more.
Out of context scripture ref.
David Guzik is one of the most genuine believers out there who has do so much work for the kingdom, I don't think this is a personal attack but rather a response to people like me who want to know what does the scripture say about Revival . I actively read his bible commentary which is a collection of commentaries old and new and I highly recommend it, very insightful , lot of history, context, info and discernment. Purely unadulterated stuff but not boring very stimulating and intuitive. Its called ' Enduring word.' I was reading from the commentary in the book of Habbakuk chapter 3 what a revival means in biblical sense. I would highly recommend you let go of anger or frustration from legalistic christians and be open to biblical perspectives. We worship in spirit and truth. The truth is the word of god, it is the letter of things. We need both the letter and the spirit of things to revive the churches. If the spirit is present and the letter is absent it remains an incomplete gospel, not a full gospel. God bless.
No it is not
Nope it’s a false revival
The Asbury Revival looks like Woostock, but with mediocre music.
Without repentance
NOT
These people can spend as much time as they want because they don't have to work, they are self -employed, they don't have any mortgage to pay and they don't need any money to feed their children. If this is a spontaneous gathering they are very musically talented because they know all the songs and they can sing in unison. They seam well revived before the gathering and I wonder if some one was orchestrating. How come they sing songs from Hillsong and Bethel? Smells not legit.
