Get Revived . . . and Stay On Fire! “I had such a powerful experience with God. He touched my heart so deeply... and after that one encounter, I wanted to live for Jesus every day for the rest of my life.” Then life went back to normal. Sound familiar? Perhaps you’ve had an encounter with...

She does not just know about revival but has experienced it firsthand.” — John Kilpatrick, pastor Church of His Presence, Pastor of the Brownsville Revival, Pensacola, FL“Jesus is coming back for a church in...
The first and most fundamental question that many people have is: What is revival? Revival simply means to bring back to life. You are not dealing with something or someone that has no life but rather something or someone that was once full of life but has somehow lost much of that life. It is the breathing in of fresh life and wind. Revival is a wave that overtakes churches, cities, and regions with the power of God. When revival rushes into a community it turns things upside down and ushers hearts back into the deeper things of God. Revival is a city-shaking movement. Impossible miracles take place in the midst of true revival. The most broken people are restored in the fire of revival. Revival is the absolute manifestation of the presence of God Almighty in the midst of His people. There are many people who are not hungry to go any deeper. They like having God in a box. They want just enough of Him to feel better and possibly be blessed, but they do not long for a deeper walk. God cannot fill those people in the manner that He desires. His promise is to fill the hungry. He is placing a divine hunger on the inside of men and women who will begin to seek Him for something deeper than what they are walking in right now. That is revival hunger!
Fire blazes from heaven, and a stone altar erupts in flame. So begins a spiritual awakening, the kindling of a revival fire still burning today. Beginning with Elijah and God's tremendous one-day revival of Israel, Wesley Duewel tells stories of revivals spanning the globe from America to China to Africa, all brought by obedience and heartfelt prayer. He illustrates how God has used revival fire through the centuries to revive the church and reveal the glorious presence of the Holy Spirit.
Revival is about the Reviver. Nothing More and Nothing Less The evidence of revival in Africa through IRIS Global is clear to see: tens of thousands of churches have been planted and hundreds of thousands of lives have been surrendered to Christ. But what have been the keys to seeing such a revival sustained over so many years? Rather than offering a transferable model - because everyone's context is different - Rolland Baker shares the five core principles that have become the bedrock of IRIS Global's ministry. They reveal how revival can be sustained by supernatural love. These five principles fuel a cooperation with the Holy Spirit that leads to a Kingdom outpouring. Rolland writes, "We don't impose these values on our ministry - the Spirit of God has imposed them on us. We simply recognize and adopt them." Readers will grasp both a deep longing for authentic relationship with the Lord and see how His love and power might be released in their own lives and ministry. "The core values for Iris ministries are not just ideals and theories. They are the way of life for Rolland, Heidi and their staff. The stories that Rolland shares are very real--sacrificial, miraculous, hard, hopeful, and joyous. I don't know any two people who have faced more devastating, and even life threatening circumstances than these two. Neither do I know any who have experienced more unexplainable miracles. I've watched as time and time again, in impossible situations, they have abandoned themselves in full surrender to Love, held out empty hands, and God has showed up in power to fill them to overflowing. Rolland beautifully highlights that the key to sustained revival is a revived heart and that only happens in a love relationship with Jesus. That is the key to the life they live. Do you want revival? Love Jesus with all your heart. Do you want to see your family, your church, your city transformed. Love Jesus with all your heart. Do you want to experience more of the supernatural? Love Jesus with all your heart. Take the time to prayerfully read this book, and then watch your heart burn with a greater love for Jesus." -Bill Johnson, Bethel Church, Redding About the author Rolland Baker is a third generation missionary who has devoted his life to serving the poor and proclaiming the name of Jesus for over thirty years.

Rolland's passion is to share a message of love and childlike faith.

Bestselling Author and Missionary Rolland Baker Reveals the Heart of True, Lasting Revival "There has been much talk in recent years of revival," says bestselling author and missionary Rolland Baker, "so much so that I wonder at times whether revival itself has become the object of devotion." Too often believers seek out revival, not the Reviver. When unchecked, they often pursue an emotional or physical experience or focus on how many came to Christ, rather than worship Jesus himself. Yet the heart of true, lasting revival is Christ--of falling in love with him so deeply that you can't help but tell others about him. And that, says Baker, is what has fueled him, his wife, Heidi, and all of Iris Ministries over the last thirty years. "This book is about sustaining revival over decades," says Baker. "By that I mean it is a book about falling in love and staying in love with the person of Jesus Christ. Revival is about the Reviver, nothing more and nothing less. My prayer is that you will fall in love with him with all your heart as you read these pages, and that you will not be able to resist giving that love away, wherever you place your feet."

But what if fasting is actually a sacred doorway into fresh encounters with the all-consuming fire of God? Author and revival historian, Jennifer Miskov, has tapped into an...
