Encounters, Revival, and Spiritual Awakening

Why do we as a culture, our churches and personally need times of encounters with the Holy Spirit, revival and awakening?  The answer is pretty simple.  We need them.  Jesus is the Good Shepherd who is always leading his sheep to the Waters of Life.  These times of outpouring are life altering and history changing. Like never before, we need fresh wind and fire of the Holy Spirit to blow across our world.   May we be a people who welcome and esteem when God moves.
