REVIVAL IN LEICESTER (3)

Full meetings, lots of visitors. Many healed, including verified by doctors. Many finding faith in Christ. Young people coming forward to offer their lives to Jesus, willing to go anywhere for Him. The monthly prayer and worship meeting moved weekly (come and join us on a Tuesday evening). People reporting a Holy Spirit presence that can be felt from the car park. And chaos in the car park with so many cars. A sense of God’s presence in the meetings you can almost touch. Leaders visiting and taking back the blessing – then reporting back that what they experienced appears to have become contagious.

Here's a quote from a much earlier revival – the UK revivals of John Wesley and George Whitfield. The quote is from an attendee at a Wesley meeting in the late 1730s:

“If there be such a thing as heavenly music upon earth, I heard it there: if there be such an enjoyment, such an attainment, as heaven upon earth, numbers in that society seem to possess it. As for my own part, I do not remember my heart to have been so elevated in divine love and praise as it was there and then for many years past, if ever; and an affecting sense and savour thereof abode in my mind many weeks later.”

The description of that John Wesley meeting could well be applied to what I am experiencing at Chroma Church right now.  

The revival in Leicester continues.
