| Pray with us for New York City... New York is, like Jerusalem of old, a city of many nations, languages, and ethnic groups, with people from almost every country on earth. New York is a mission field indeed, a city that needs a genuine move of the Holy Spirit to turn many wandering souls back to God. Pray with us that the Lord will move powerfully for this great city, bringing revival once again. "Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord." Acts 3:19 Pray with us for the college campuses... Many renowned American universities, especially in the Ivy League, have long histories as Christian institutions where God worked powerfully (see www.yalestandard.com). In these schools, students were prepared to serve the Lord in ministry, in missions, and in other academic and secular fields. Pray with us that God will again bring revival on these campuses. "Give up yourselves therefore with a cordial confidence to Christ and the great work of life is done." Timothy Dwight, President of Yale (1795-1817) Pray with us for Colombia and the nations of Latin America... God is doing a special work in Colombia, South America, even as that nation passes through difficulties and suffering. We in America thank God for the liberty and prosperity He has given us, but it is important to remember what James 2:5 declares, "Listen, my beloved brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?" The Kingdom of Heaven is not about riches and success, but about people hungering to find forgiveness, righteousness, healing, and eternal life in Jesus Christ. Jesus alone is the answer to the problems of Latin America, just as He alone is the answer to the needs of our own beloved country. Please pray with us for great awakening in these lands, revival that convicts men and women of sin, brings repentance, and changes lives and society.

"Ask of Me, and I will give You The nations for Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth for Your possession." Psalm 2:8 (NKJV) If you would like to join us for Sunday morning prayer and worship on the campus of Columbia University, click on the link below for information and directions for the New Testament Missionary Fellowship. |
An Excerpt from Judgment or Revival, Which Will It Be? by Christopher N. White ©2007
O upright One, you make the way of the righteous smooth. Yes, Lord, walking in the way of your laws, we wait for you; your name and renown are the desire of our hearts. My soul yearns for you in the night; in the morning my
of the world learn righteousness." Isaiah 26:7-9 (NIV) Reading these verses while praying recently, I realized that they are directly connected to the theme of revival and to the opening of doors for which we have long been praying. We have been asking the Lord for revival for New York City, as well as for our nation. We are asking for revival, not just because it would be marvelous to see God move again with power from on high, but because we desperately need “times of refreshing…from the Lord.” (Acts 3:19)
foundations, the chief source of the many blessings Americans have long enjoyed. Educators among others are rewriting American history as taught in schools and universities, and our children are deprived of a thorough and accurate knowledge of their roots. A nation in which most citizens were once familiar with the Bible is raising generations of children who are ignorant of the most influential book in the development of our society. From all too many professorial lecterns, the call goes out for freedom from religion in a land founded on freedom of religion. Evils of every variety, including perversions and violence that would have been unimaginable a few decades ago are flooding into the culture, the media, and the daily life of our people. Many of us are deeply concerned that judgment cannot be far behind, and may actually have already begun. As Charles H. Spurgeon pointed out, the most fearful judgment of all is not when God sends forceful, visible punishments, but when He quietly slips away and people do not even realize that He is gone! “Then the glory of the Lord departed from over the threshold of the temple…,” and who in Israel realized that the Spirit had left? (Ezekiel 10:18) |

I'm staring at two booklets by Chris White: Judgment or Revival, Which Will It Be? and God and Man and Monkey at Yale. Their publisher is not the prestigious Oxford University Press but New York's New Testament Missionary Fellowship. Their author entered Yale in 1971, the year I graduated. We were both told that our duty was to join the American elite. White at age 19 felt called to be an evangelist. Over the years he has led college Bible studies, preached in Central Park and Times Square, taught high-school math, and done much besides. Since 2004 he has evangelized in Colombia, the country from which his wife comes. His in-laws wonder why a Yale graduate isn't walking the halls of power. One reason may be White's frequent prayer that God "would grant us a heart of wisdom to understand how little we know, and how much we still have to learn. . . . The more we grow up in Christ, the more we will understand that the Christian life is not about mastering a body of knowledge, or even about achieving a level of self-sufficiency. The Christian life is about learning to walk in a continual, growing dependence on Jesus Christ." His in-laws wonder. By the way, White—realizing that he is reaping what others have sown, and that God is in charge— has directly led almost 1,000 people to make a serious profession of faith in Christ. It's a wonderful life. — Marvin Olasky (Editor in Chief) Copyright © 2008 WORLD Magazine January 26, 2008, Vol. 23, No. 2 (Used by Permission) |
