revival

Churches and other ministries are reporting hundreds of salvations and baptisms across the country, seemingly following February’s spiritual awakening that began at Asbury University.

A spiritual outpouring continues to transform the lives of young people across the country in the months following the Asbury revival.

An 11-year-old girl says she experienced a miraculous healing during the revival at Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky, last month.

Baylor University partnered with campus ministries and local churches to host its annual FM72 event, which welcomes students, faculty and staff to the campus's Fountain Mall to worship the Lord for 72 consecutive hours.

"This was a phenomenal event that brought a community together for one afternoon and evening. We were amazed by how the Holy Spirit moved and lives were changed with the hope of the Gospel," a spokesman for the ministry said.

A revival in the Hammond, Louisiana area that began as a four-day revival has entered into its 19th week.

Grammy-winning artist Michael W. Smith, fresh off an event in Vietnam that drew thousands, says he believes “God is on the movie” around the world and that a global revival is breaking out.

“Something's happening,” Smith told Christian Headlines. “I'm so grateful that I'm alive to get to see it.”

Smith referenced the Asbury revival but also a series of other events: the timely release of Jesus Revolution and the popularity of The Chosen, among them.

Pastor Dave Shockey of the Purdue Christian Campus House said that some 300 students came to join a Collegiate Day of Prayer simulcast at Purdue University recently.

The salvation of thousands was recorded last week at an outdoor gospel campaign in Somotillo, Nicaragua, despite opposition from local witches who attempted to curse the field and block the event by Shake the Nations Ministries.

Regent University is following Asbury University’s lead and is hosting an outpouring this week.
