The Fire That Never Sleeps: Keys for Sustaining Personal Revival

Thanks to these 3 men of God
Revelations abound in this wonderful book. I would highly recommend it to any true believer who wonders why they aren't doing the work that Jesus Commissioned us to do and what has happened to our power and zeal. Praise God for this wonderful book!

A heaven-sent book in a time of need!
Although I haven't finished reading the book entirely yet, however I have wept my way through much of it as I feel my soul so stirred and hungry to taste and see what they experienced in Brownsville in my own life and church today! The stories and truths are so plain, obvious, and life giving that if every believer in america would simply read this book, take it to heart, and begin to follow it to its own logical conclusion then revival would sweep america and beyond. Both writers present similar truths from different angles (one an amazing teacher the other a true pastor) and it is nice to have this topic balanced in that way. I am so glad that Michael Brown and John Kilpatrick have written on this very topic (true heaven sent revival) at this very hour what else can be said in america? Its not the time to sleep, its not the time for political activism, its the time to get ahold of God! To lay on our faces, cry out, weep over our sins and the sins of the church (not just those of the nation) and ask! ask! ask for a touch from heaven that will shake us to our very foundations and bring a true revival of Biblical Christianity to america and beyond. I love the stories from the Brownsville revival. towards the beginning of the book Michael Brown shares an entry to his diary during the Brownsville revival. The book is worth getting just for that short section! I wept, cried out and pleaded with God come down in the same way again. Pastor Kilpatrick shares about his initiation into going deeper with God and what lead to the beginnings of the revival, including his own personal desperation. One account he shares of an angelic visitation he experienced in a prayer meeting has stayed with me for days. Do we even believe this stuff anymore? There was a time in my life I constantly fasted and prayed and cried out for God to come near, to do miracles, signs, wonders, let me see angels! Though I haven't yet seen angels (and maybe never well, thats really not the point) but it has begun to stir up in me once again the same hunger I had during that season to see all God has including angels if that be in his plan for me! Why not? the Bible is a book full of such stuff! Oh God for the days of true, supernatural, Spirit Filled and Spirit Led Christianity again. Thank you to both Pastor Kilpatrick and Michael Brown for taking the time to write this book and share these stories and your hearts so that another generation of believers can get on the right track for what we as a church should really be focusing on, seeking for and going after: a true heaven sent visitation (better yet a true reformation which is what much of the church really needs nowadays) from God. The american church is full of hyper-grace, easy believeism, and megachurch models that have done much to completely destroy the root and foundation of true Christianity as the jackals slowly destroyed the walls in the book of Jeremiah (a passage referring to the false prophesies of the false prophets and the way it destroyed the nation one step at a time). Thankfully books like this if read and taken to heart can do much to help restore our walls, restore us to our roots, cut through the fluff and get back to a place where we really get ahold of God and his true word. Not the chaff, but the wheat. Please Authors write and speak more on this topic! we need revival! we need personal, corporate, national reformation of spirit soul and body and a return to the manifest presence and glory of God in our lives, churches and ministries. God forbid that all the younger generation knows are melodramatic "grace" quotes from mega-church happy pastors and knows nothing of repentance, the fear of God, the truth of Gods word true holiness and radical visitation such as happened in the great awakenings and even in Brownsville. I encourage everyone to get this book and read it is soon as you can. Let it speak to you and impart to you and revolutionize your lives! Thankfully though I live in Jakarta, Indonesia I was able to get the book as soon as it was released through kindle! God bless the authors and all the readers of this timely book!

A MUST READ, POWERFUL BOOK FOR EVERY SPIRIT-FILLED BELIEVER!!!
I chose the 5-Star rating for this book because of the powerful content. This book will ignite a deeper passion for the things of GOD that will cause personal revival in us, which in turn will lead us to bring forth revival in our individual spheres of influence, that will also extend throughout the world!!! The church needs to become more passionate for the things of GOD, and this book is the vehicle that WILL cause it to come to pass!!! :) :) :)

Awesome
I've had this book on my saved for later thing for like a year. It ended up going on sale for 99 cents in the destiny image email, so I finally got it. So glad I did! It's a phenomenal book that shakes you out of the mediocre that we consider normal, and raises the bar to a biblical normal. Highly recommended read.

4.5 Stars!
This book is a great insight to revival, personal and corporate. I love the focus on personal prayer, passion and commitment to God's Word and seeking after God. To the Christian who is desperate for God and wants to live a life sold out for God, this book is a true gem. I found it encouraged me and painted a clear picture of the Brownsville revival. The Fire That Never Sleeps was well-written and another great book by Dr. Michael Brown....I wish I could give it 4.5 stars, but Amazon won't let me! Definately a book worth a look!

Really inspiring. Having experienced an outpouring that has lasted three years but ebbs and flows, this book is extremely helpful and I believe God brought me to read it at just the right time. Highly recommended.

Outstanding!
This is an excellent book for anyone looking to live a revived Christian life. A life that is not content with normal, average church services. A life that longs to see the moving of God in our homes, churches and communities. A life that is willing to sacrifice everything for the call of God and is committed to staying hungry for the deeper things of God and will not be satisfied with anything less.I read this book in a day because it so captivated me and drew me in. It resonated so deeply with me and I feel so encouraged and inspired to pray and press on for more of God.

A 'must read' for Christians seeking revival.
This book is a 'must read" for anyone who belongs to a Christian Church in the Western World. The authors point out the difficulties of following a Christian faith in a Worldly culture. They then see the urgent need for revival, a strong movement of the Holy Spirit, to awaken Christians to a real relationship with God.
