“Let the Fire Fall”

“Let the Fire Fall”

March 17, 2026

I can feel it deep in my bones — God is stirring something in this church, and it’s stronger than anything we’ve seen in a long time. This isn’t routine. This isn’t habit. This isn’t “Sunday as usual.” This is the beginning of a move of God, and I refuse to pretend it’s anything less.

There is a holy restlessness rising in Abbott Methodist Church.

A hunger that can’t be quieted.

A fire that won’t stay contained.

And I’m telling you — when God starts waking up His people, nothing stays the same.

This is not the season for lukewarm faith.

This is not the season for half‑hearted worship.

This is not the season for “just getting by.”

No — this is the season for revival.

The kind that shakes the dust off dry bones.

The kind that breaks chains people forgot they were carrying.

The kind that turns a small church into a burning torch in the hands of God.

I feel it rising.

I feel it building.

I feel it pressing on us like a holy wind saying, “Get ready.”

We are not staying where we’ve been.

We are not settling for comfortable Christianity.

We are not shrinking back into the shadows.

We are stepping forward — bold, hungry, expectant — because the same God who lit fires in the book of Acts is still lighting fires today.

So let the fire fall.

Let the Spirit move.

Let the walls shake.

Let the sleepy hearts wake up.

Because God is not done with this church.

He is not done with this town.

He is not done with you.

Abbott Methodist Church — rise up.

The wind is blowing.

The fire is burning.

Revival is calling.
