Two pits we can fall into are:
1. dreaming about the "good old days" and trying to live on memories of things that really weren't all that good in the first place
2. dreaming about this huge revival which is just around the corner.
Thank God for the past. We found the Lord and He found us. He revealed truths over successive generations. But we can't drive a stake in the ground and tether ourselves to it and refuse to move on with the Holy Spirit. Now we are living in a day when God is pouring out His Spirit on all flesh. Thousands are coming to Jesus. It is estimated that there are 600 million Christians who consider themselves Charismatic or Pentecostal. It is my opinion that this is a "last day revival" --it's here now, step out into the rain and let it saturate you. Quit dreaming about the past and quit dreaming about the future, wake up and do something for God and receive from Him what He has for you.
