“FIX YOUR CHARACTER IN ORDER TO RECEIVE”

Before we begin I would like to thank God for choosing this vessel to share the Word and I would like to honor my mother and father and everyone listening. Welcome to the Refreshing Times Revival. Tonight it is your appointment with God and you will receive your breakthrough and joy. Today is the beginning of the goodness of God. The beginning of great testimonies.

We thank God for such a day. I believe that God is not a scientist, this is not an experiment where we declare or decree that it is refreshing times just to see what will happen but we believe that God is about to work out a miracle. Do not believe in me or anyone but in the Word of God. Believe in what God is giving you to eat. You have nothing to lose. We are going to start by going to the scripture of the revival.

[Acts 3:19]

We begin the revival with saying ‘Repent’. It is not me but God. He is saying repent because what He is about to give you will not go hand in hand with how you are living. What He is about to give you will clash with your current bad character. There are certain things you cannot receive while your character is not right. We can declare grace and the love of God but until you let go of certain characters you cannot receive from God.

In this verse there is refreshing time and repentance in the same sentence. Repent so that you can receive the refreshing times. These refreshing times cannot come while you are not in the presence of God. It doesn’t matter how much or how long you pray, until you repent there are certain things you will not receive from God. Turn away from the sinful nature, fix your character because what He is about to give you does not coincide with your character.

[Exodus 3:1-5]

God is calling Moses to the presence, but remember how Moses used to live. He used to live in the palace of Pharaoh and was used to how the Egyptians lived. He was an Israelite but because he grew up in the household of Egyptians he was taught the ungodly ways of Egyptians.

Moses now encountered the presence, even though he did not know God he was able to hear and speak to God. Many people do not have the privilege to see and hear God. Moses was not even a prayer warrior at that time but he was able to speak to God and have a conversation. Moses is now speaking to God. This is the relationship that every Christian must have with God. Some Christians cannot even hear God the way Moses could, even though he was not a child of God at that time. (Verse 5), “…take your sandals off your feet, for the place where you stand is a holy ground..”, as long as there is a seed that is not of God in you, there are certain things that will always hinder you in the presence of God. It doesn’t matter how mature you are in the Lord or in the Spirit.

As long as you harbor that character there will not be any difference. God says to Moses this is a holy ground, take off those shoes. The way he was conversing with God you would swear that Moses didn’t have any sinful character in him. We are still going to get more, so but we need to remove the old wine skin. When a blessing comes it shouldn’t come with sorrow or attachments. We are not a generation where God has to bless you with a thorn to keep you, but we fix the character. We enter into the times of God pure, we are not going to receive as the Israelites received. I believe that before we enter into the times we need to be fixed. Do not be in despair but be excited that you are receiving a chance to be fixed.

This is the refreshing times revival; God needs to refresh and create you anew. (Verse 5), many of you are good with God. I believe some of you are saying what is this man saying? Tonight before you come to God introspect yourself, and say Father whatever that is in me that is not from You please remove it. Remember what God says that be “Holy as I am Holy”, this is the bottom line. Become Holy as He is Holy. This is non-negotiable. Grace cannot cover this one. When you come before God you are stepping in a Holy place therefore be Holy as He is.

There are certain things you will not receive until you get rid of this hindrance. Acts 3:19 says repent therefore, turn away from the sinful nature. We are beginning with the revival and entering into a refreshing time. I believe each and everyone needs this time. I believe you don’t want it to pass you by. Today when you ask, God will give you because we are repenting from our old ways and entering into a new era, the refreshing times. If you did not receive your testimony in the past revival today I assure you that refreshing times will not pass you by. Believe in the word of God.

[Isaiah 40:1]

This is the promise of God to us. Things are not going to be hard for you anymore because every valley has been raised up. You will walk without any effort, there will no more be a mountain. These are the promises of God in this revival that when you turn away from the things you used to do, your things will never be difficult anymore. You will not desire for that house for long, you will not struggle to get that degree anymore for that mountain has been removed and levelled. Do we believe? Let us believe in the Word of God. Papa said it and it is that simple, that you need to believe.

The bible says Abraham believed God and righteousness was credited to him. If you don’t want to turn away from your sinful nature, do it for this revival and see. The teachings of repentance are there, but today for the sake of this revival just do it. God is saying with the past revival we were not able to receive but this time it will be different. God says I will level this mountain for you, and remember He doesn’t have to do it but because we are the love of His life He is doing it for us. (Verse 4), imagine, God doing all these things for us and all He asks from us is repentance. Are the hardships that we go through necessary? God is here to level every mountain and make sure that our lives are without hardships and problems.

God is calling us to His presence, but all you have to do is to take off the sandals. Imagine Moses saying I cannot take off my shoes because there are thorns. Is it worth it for Moses to keep the sandals? Is it worth it for you to keep your girlfriend? What more can we do for ourselves that God cannot do for us? He can do more and exceedingly. (Verse 5), if the grass receives the Word it is bound to last forever, it is not about the death of the grass but about what is upon the grass.

(Verse 9), He carries you close to His heart in His presence. (Verse 31), those who are in the Lord; He will renew their strength. God is about to renew your strength, you will not get weary again. You will not get tired to pray or to meditate upon the Word. He will renew your strength. People will be amazed where you get your strength because they are tired. As you enter into the times of refreshing God is renewing your strength. Things are not going to be difficult anymore because you have received the strength. You will not run out of energy.

[Psalm 23:1]

We do not go on our own but we are directed and guided. We are called and shepherded. Repent and turn to God then you will be guided. He gives you everything you need. Then He refreshes your soul. This revival is not only about your body but also about your soul. Remember these promises are there after you have repented. There are things that you will get from God only if you repent. Let us live right.

[Genesis 26:19]

Isaac dug and they came and quarreled, this is what we are going through. It’s like nothing gets right. We are entering the refreshing times. In this revival God is making a room for you to be fruitful. Come to God and let Him make a room for you. I believe we have heard and we are ready. If we enter this revival with pureness believe you me there is nothing you will pray for and it doesn’t come to pass. So we are beginning, let us start right. We start with repenting then refreshing times follows. You will not work hard, things are changing but they can only change when you are on the bosom of Christ.
