Sergio Scataglini(Audio: Español)
RESUMEN:
The speaker shares his vision of revival and the importance of preparing for it. He recounts his father's prophecy of a revival in Argentina, which eventually spread to two million people. He encourages the church to have faith and conviction in their prayers, citing examples of persuading God for miracles. He emphasizes the need to be a student of holiness and to have passion and fervor in prayer. The speaker also promotes his books and resources on holiness and daily spiritual formation. He concludes by urging the church to pray with tears and passion, believing that their prayers can affect change and revival in their families, cities, and nation.
The speaker emphasizes the importance of being persuaders of God, who can pray and intercede for others to receive mercy and miracles from God. He uses the example of a Canaanite woman who persisted in asking Jesus for help, despite his initial silence and rejection. The speaker encourages listeners to break the barriers of indifference and silence, and to have faith in God's power to do miracles. He also shares personal stories of praying for his atheist uncle for twenty-three years before he finally converted, and of witnessing passionate and intense faith in Christians in Cuba and Guatemala.
The speaker talks about breaking barriers in faith, using the story of the Canaanite woman in the Bible as an example. He highlights four barriers: doubt, rejection, offense, and pride. The woman overcame these barriers by having strong faith, persistently praying for her request, and humbling herself before Jesus. The speaker encourages the audience to follow her example and have strong faith, even if it means starting with just a little bit. He also emphasizes the importance of being patient and persevering in prayer, and not giving up until heaven answers. Finally, he urges the audience to break down any barriers that might hinder their faith, and to work together as a team in the army of God.
The speaker calls for people who want complete holiness to come forward and renounce their sins. He leads them in a prayer and declares that they have received the fire of holiness. He also prays for those struggling with depression and bitterness and declares healing in the name of Jesus. The speaker then asks those who are unsure of their salvation to raise their hands and leads them in a prayer to accept Jesus into their hearts. He ends by calling for the lost to return to Christ and sings a song of worship.I come with a vision of revival, when I arrive at this place I see that this is only preparatory, this building is too small for you, the one next to it will be too small for you, what God has will overcome, I see homes burned by love of God, homes where the revival spreads because they do not reach the local buildings, I see it, I feel the same as my father felt in his church before the revival came in the city of La Plata.
The he began to preach, he began to announce, and I told him get ready, we were about three hundred members, it was the largest church in the city, and my father told us, get ready church, an avalanche of people is coming, and if you are not ready, those people he will take the ministry and take you out of the seat, it seemed like a threat more than a prophecy, ten years he was announcing a revival that would come, only he saw it.
