When God Brings Revival in New Ways, Expect the Unexpected
An important part of every Christian’s life should be expectancy and openness for God to do a new thing. The body of Christ desperately needs revival and reformation. By and large, we have drifted astray from God’s original design: the Acts church.
It’s rare to see people walking in the power of God as the first apostles did. It’s rare to see apostles and prophets accepted and operating in their important role to equip, impart and lead. These aspects of the Acts church are integral to the church today as Jesus says, “the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power” (1 Cor. 4:20, MEV).

The ministry He displayed and commanded us to carry out was preaching that the kingdom of heaven is at hand, healing the sick, casting out demons and raising the dead. If you’re serious about following God’s Word rather than the status quo of Christian culture of today, you’ll realize just how desperately we need revival and major change in the church.
God said His bride will be ready, without blemish, spot or wrinkle before He returns. So that means change must come! God has already begun to bring revival, and it’s only the beginning of the greatest revival and reformation that we’ve ever seen.
Knowing that revival and transformation in the church are God’s plan, we must live in expectancy of an extraordinary move of God! We also must expect that God will bring His revival in a way we could never imagine. Every revival of the past and every move of God in the Bible came in a new “outside the box” way, where God used unlikely vessels to usher it in.
David was discounted as an anointed leader because he was thought to be too young, and he didn’t look the part. Moses was seen as an outsider, having grown up in royalty as part of the family who oppressed the Israelites. Most would disqualify him to be a prophet since he murdered a man and was not eloquent in speaking.
