A Spirit of Charity

Revival brings an outpouring of love.

Revival! (6)

But the fruit of the Spirit is love… Galatians 5.22

Ministers of Scotland: Lectures on Revival X
The Rev. Charles J. Brown, Minister of New North Kirk Parish, Edinburgh
“But a fourth fruit of revival to which I would ask your attention, is a spirit of charity and mutual forbearance, of tenderness and brotherly love…the spirit of generous, enlarged mutual charity, and tenderness and forbearance, is evidently set forth as the proper characteristic fruit of the Holy Ghost. The same effect infallibly will spring from the same cause in every country and every age. Individual souls, brought the spirit of love and peace into the fellowship of ‘the Prince of peace,’ will burn with intense desire to see mercy and peace and love reigning among the children of men.”

Here’s a goal worth praying for: As revival sweeps through the Body of Christ, love is kindled in new and surprising ways among the members of a church, and that love spills over into the lost world, bringing the Good News of Jesus and His love to many. We should expect an extraordinary measure of love to be present when not just a few people here and there, but an entire congregation of believers, are filled with renewing grace, and the indwelling Spirit is reviving them in the Lord. What would that look like? How would you expect to see new rivers of holy spiritual love, streaming from your members to one another and the larger community – and perhaps even to you? Are you praying daily that God will bring this to pass?

What would it look like if the Spirit suddenly began to exaggerate His love in new ways through you?

Pray for Revival
Join us online once a month to pray for revival. We meet for 30 minutes, once a month, pray a psalm and seek the Lord together for revival. We’re looking for men who will commit to seeking the Lord for revival together. If you’re interested, write to me at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it., and I’ll give you a list of available times. Or we can discuss beginning a new group to pray for revival at a more suitable time.
