First Word

Now is the Time!

Welcome to this special Energise Cell Conference edition of Revival Times. You will find inside articles relating to our conference theme: Reforming the Church, Reviving the Nations.

Since March this year over 1,500 people have responded to the appeal for salvation in our nightly healing revival services, led by Gipsy William Lee. Each one of these is being consolidated and many new cells have been started, existing entirely of new converts from the revival.

We have also seen hundreds of people healed from deafness, visual impairment and walking difficulties, as well as a range of other illnesses and disabilities. On the one hand, all this speaks of a special time of revival for the church, but, on the other hand, it now seems to us as the normal work of the church. After all, Jesus commanded and commissioned the Church to preach the gospel, heal the sick and disciple the nations. The cell vision is central to all that we have been doing.Without it we could never have sustained these meetings as, each night, different cell leaders take responsibility for the music, stewarding, consolidation and ministry to the sick.This is truly a cell church revival. Our vision is to see every church in Britain and Europe move in the power of God and grow through the cell vision. It is the most effective church model in existence today. Only the cell vision can equip the church of today to reach the challenges of our generation.

I pray that the Lord will bless you and revive you in this season as never before, and that you will take your place in the ministry of Christ energised and fully-equipped for the revival spreading across the nations.
