Acts 3:19-21 – Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that he may send the Christ appointed for you, Jesus, whom heaven must receive until the time for restoring all the things about which God spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets long ago.
Too many Christians have “settled”, they have settled for a lukewarm spiritual life reflecting on the good old days when “God was really moving”. It is quite disturbing to me when people reminisce on the “good old days at Victory Fellowship”. Don’t get me wrong, there were some great times in the past but I don’t live in the past, I need the Lord today. We need daily bread from heaven and the Lord is happy to give it. In today’s verse Peter was prophesying about times and seasons of refreshing that would continue to come from the presence of the Lord. We need daily renewal, yesterday’s mercies will never sustain me today. Check out the words to this song from Kim Walker-Smith.
Renew us in this day
Just like You said You would
Your Word is not in vain
Our hearts reaching heavenward
Fresh outpouring
Tear the fabric open
Come, Jesus come
Breath of heaven
Nothing left unshaken
We long for more
We need a fresh outpouring
Unleash a fresh outpouring
We need a fresh outpouring
Unleash a fresh outpouring
As temporary fades
Let glory invade this earth
Your power on display
Our eyes looking heavenward
Fresh outpouring
Tear the fabric open
Come, Jesus come
Breath of heaven
Nothing left unshaken
We long for more
We need a fresh outpouring
Unleash a fresh outpouring
We need a fresh outpouring
Unleash a fresh outpouring
There is fire, stirring in our bones
A shout is rising, rising up inside
Soak the earth, come and fill our hearts
Your voice is calling, calling us to life!
We need a fresh outpouring
Unleash a fresh outpouring!
We need a fresh outpouring
Unleash a fresh outpouring!
Make a way where, I see none!
Make a way where, I see none!
Let the waters rise in the desert
Let the waters rise in the desert!
Fresh outpouring
Fresh outpouring
Tear the fabric open
Come, Jesus come…
So maybe there is more for you than you ever thought. Yesterday was good but the Lord is here pouring out His glory today.

No different then going from children to adults, we remember good and bad roads we experienced in our travel’s thru life. Our memories are reference points of our growth and our contributions to humanity, as we are quickly passing through our one and only opportunity to make a deposit, that in the end, hopefully has value. Sometimes it seems as though when we were younger, the growing pains were less taxing, but as James said “count it all joy when you encounter various trials…” The way I’m looking at it, I can be a grumpy old man stuck in the habits of generation after generation of people with a form of religion but not engaged in the power available, or someone contributing and receiving every day. Harriet Stowe said this that reminds me as I get older that there can be great value in someone who has been through battles that took away a part of me, but it was replaced by a part of God. “I long to put the experience of fifty years at once into your young lives, to give you at once the key of that treasure chamber, every gem of which has cost me tears and struggles and prayers, but you must work for these inward treasures yourself.”
