Revival is about the Glory of God

When Dr Thomas Chung came to preach on 24 May 2015 at 7:30 am Service, I was anticipating a good sermon to be preached by him. I did not expect I would weep during and after the service. He was just sharing the revival stories of Sarawak and north Borneo before. He mentioned that the word Christians should use more while on earth is "Hosanna" as this word is not to be used in heaven. 

I was privilege to read from John Stott's teachings through his writings and speakings. I was told that before preaching, he would pray this prayer in the pulpit:
Heavenly Father, we bow in your presence
May your Word be our rule Your Spirit our teacher,
 And your greater glory our supreme concern,
Through Jesus Christ our Lord.


Good morning heavenly Father,
good morning Lord Jesus,
good morning Holy Spirit.
Heavenly Father, I worship you as the creator and sustainer of the universe.
Lord Jesus, I worship you, Savior and Lord of the world.
Holy Spirit, I worship you, sanctifier of the people of God.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.
Heavenly Father, I pray that I may live this day in your presence
and please you more and more.
Lord Jesus, I pray that this day I may take up my cross and follow you.
Holy Spirit, I pray that this day you will fill me with yourself and cause your fruit to ripen in my life:
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
Holy, blessed and glorious Trinity, three persons in one God,
have mercy upon me. Amen.
