Key points: “Unity is the great power that moves the church, that moves a city, and moves a nation.” – Pastor Ricky Monroe “We supply the unity and [the Lord] supplies the Spirit and the Power to go forward.” - Pastor Ricky Monroe It is particularly important “to see the leaders [of diverse church congregations] connecting in relationship, in unity as friends,” because it shows that all of us are a part of the body of Christ. This unity is a testimony to the community and the world. Unity begins in small groups. “Even in these times, revival is still ready to break out. Even in these difficult times, in these changing times that we’re in, God is still wanting to do something magnificent. And He is going to do something magnificent through everything that we’re going through.” - Pastor Ricky Monroe “The thing that puts us on the cusp of revival is repentance… Repentance keeps you in the presence of God” - Pastor Ricky Monroe “In repentance, … I get rid of everything that is keeping me out of the presence of God, that’s keeping me out of fellowship with my brothers and my sisters. So, I’ve let the devil know that I’ll not allow him to cause superficial things or carnal things to keep me from the greater spiritual thing: which is revival for me, which is revival for my church, which is revival for my city, which is revival for my community, which is revival for the nation; so then, the Lord can see that He has a people who can re-remember who He is and [He can] come in a do a great thing.” - Pastor Ricky Monroe

Justin is a prophetic voice who teaches and equips the body of Christ to hear God's voice and release the kingdom of God on earth.

People are looking for God in you. Get the heart of God for your city. Go after what God tells you to go after. Scripture memorization is important. There are spiritual disciplines and habits that move you forward. “What you fill your life with will come out.” – Justin Allen “If you don’t know the fellowship of His sufferings, I don’t think you can fully know God” – Justin Allen Intimacy grows quicker in hard places. “You haven’t known God until you’ve wept at His feet.” – Justin Allen “If He is your portion in the dark night of the soul, then you know that the best that the world has to offer will never satisfy, because He has already satisfied.” – Justin Allen “God is still God in the delay” – Justin Allen “The prize was not the Promised Land. The prize was Him.” – Justin Allen “The delay is qualifying you for the thing that you can’t yet steward.” – Justin Allen Little things matter in the big scheme of what God is doing. We can expect to see these things in revival: Focus on Jesus; Repentance; Healings; Miracles; Manifestations of the Presence of God; the Apostolic and the Prophetic working hand in hand.

    Revival Fire: An Interview with Jen Miskov

    Revival Fire: An Interview with Jen Miskov. Jennifer Miskov is a revival historian, author, writing coach, and itinerant minister who loves to lead people into life-changing encounters with Jesus and help launch them into their destinies with God. She is also the founding director of School of Revival and Writing in the Glory.  Key Points: “Revival equals more of Jesus in every capacity and facet of our lives.” – Jen Miskov Revival is a starting point. We must steward revival to sustain a move of God in our lives and in our community. What does revival look like? ·      "Revival looks like the kingdom of God crashing in..."  ·      "Revival looks like the incoming presence in God invading our hearts and minds and relationships." ·      "Revival looks like Jesus walking around the city. " “If we have eyes to see, we’ll recognize revival in the smallest details." Spiritual disciplines are pathways to intimacy. Silence is a powerful pathway to intimacy. “Be still, and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10a). Fasting is a way to increase your hunger for the Lord. ·      Fasting is feasting on the Lord. The key to every revival and revivalist is hunger. ·      One way to cultivate hunger is to fast. ·      "Fasting is something I can do to set myself apart just to love Jesus." – Jen Miskov ·      You can fast to seek something from God, but… "there is something powerful about fasting just because you are in love with Jesus." – Jen Miskov ·      From history we see that “most revivals were birthed on fasts.” – Jen Miskov ·      “Of course I love food, but the fact that there is something I can do to set myself apart for the Lord as an act of worship is special.” – Jen Miskov Jesus wants our whole hearts. Family is the fireplace of revival. Spiritual family, a close spiritual community, can help you sustain passion and love for the Lord. Revival history is a well of inspiration, encouragement, and fire. Carrie Judd Montgomery, who lived in the late 1800s and early 1900s, modeled walking in revival fire for decades. “To steward revival, spend time with Jesus and do whatever it takes to surround yourself with other burning ones.” – Jen Miskov Your one “Yes” to the Lord can birth revival. The story of Florrie Evans of the Welsh Revival shows the power of saying “Yes”. God uses ordinary people, who say “Yes”, to ignite mighty moves of God. You can connect with Jen and find resources for your walk with Jesus at jenmiskov.com. For more information about Jen’s School of Revival: www.schoolofrevivalfire.com E-Courses are available at jenmiskov.com Here are a few of Jen Miskov’s books (you can find others on her website): Walking on Water Ignite Azusa Writing in the Glory

    Taking Revival Outside the Building: An Interview with Pastor Denny Blake

    Believers are called to follow the model of Jesus who ministered outside of the building. Pastor Denny is a spiritual leader in the city of Thomasville, GA. He is the lead pastor of Disciples of Jesus Ministries and a leader in many local organizations. Pastor Denny has a reputation for loving people and for spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ. “Revival is a daily walk with Christ” – Pastor Denny Blake Revival is a fire that is lit in the hearts of men and women. Revival in a city… “I think it would look a lot like love.” – Pastor Denny Blake Revival in a city would be like the day of Pentecost… “It happened in a room, but it didn’t stay in a room.” When we can get in one setting, in one accord, and the Holy Spirit shows up, revival has just happened. Seek ye first the kingdom of heaven. Pastor Denny shares a remedy for discouragement: we should be encouraged by the one who responds to the Lord. Stay focused on the one whose life is changed. Walking with the Lord will lead us into unity within the body of Christ. Praying for leaders: “Lord, let your man or your woman who has your heart be in place.” Community worship is an opportunity to draw the body of Christ into unity. Fellowship with other spiritual leaders provides mutual spiritual encouragement. “God chose the church to be a demonstration to the world… I encourage the church, let’s get it together to make sure the world sees a good model of Jesus.” – Pastor Denny Blake You can connect with Pastor Denny Blake at dojm.org on Facebook at facebook.com/denny.blake.528 and on Instagram at pastoridblake.
