17 Days and Counting

Seventeen days from now Faith Community will embark on a forty-day journey with God to prepare for revival. We will use the the "40 Days to Shake the City" devotion book. Students and adults alike will go through this journey as we prepare for God to shake our lives, shake our church and to shake our city in revival and spiritual awakening.

If you want to join us in the journey you can get a copy of the devotion book by contacting us at Faith Community (pastorfaithcommunity@gmail.com) or by going online to www.ForTheMaster.com to secure your own copy of the book. We would love to see all of you who read this blog go through the forty-day journey with us.

Our revival is scheduled to begin July 15th. Please pray for our worship minister, Chris Nash, for those days. Chris and I have labored in revival before. He has a heart for the heart of God and to lead others there. Please pray for me. I am sending this out to solicit prayer cover for myself and Chris starting now and going until the revival ends. We have not set an ending date. We will leave that up to God. I covet prayer partners who will stand in the gap for us.

Several have taken this forty-day journey before back in Seminole the summer of 2010. Here is what some of them had to say about that journey of preparation.

"This devotional book is full of enriched scripture and challenging words that aided me in examining my current spiritual state. It helped prepare my mind and heart for the outpouring of God."

"I Thess 5:16 says we can be joyful always. This what God did in our lives. As a result of God's work through this book - we will never be the same."

"God moved in an amazing way during our Shake the City Revival. In preparation, many of us committed to read, study, and pray through this devotional book. God used the 40 days prior to the beginning of the "meeting" to begin revival in our hearts."

"If you will give time to praying and seeking Jesus, He will up and show off! This devotional book worked like a starter's gun at a track meet, and led me to an incredible encounter with my Lord and Savior."

"40 DAYS - the most important devotional guide for spiritual maturity to come into the church since Henry Blackaby's Experiencing God."

Of course you do not have to be a part of Faith Community Church to go on this journey with God. Many may opt to go through these forty days on their own. Our prayer is that many churches will go through this journey together when it is best for them to see God move powerfully in their churches and communities. May the Lord use this book for His glory. May God move in Faith Community Church and beyond for His glory. May the kingdom of God be expanded much through revived churches doing evangelism around the world.
