"The 1970 revival at Asbury College will go down in history as one of the greatest supernatural events of the last half of the 20th century. Millions of people across the United States and the world were impacted by it. This simple video odes a wonderful job of conveying something of the outpouring's heart and power. Everyone we have ever shown this to have an immediate impartation of faith for revival and the power of prayer. What God did once at this campus, we believe He will do again on every campus where a group of students will open their hearts to Him."

What is true Revival and Spiritual Awakening? Discover the answer in this eyewitness account by Dennis Kinlaw, President of Asbury College, Wilmore, Kentucky, who recounts the story of a visitation of the Holy Spirit in 1970. If you are a student who longs to see a spiritual awakening at your school, you must see this video!

This is the presentation that has continued to spark the flames of Revival in the hearts of people around the world. Contains eyewitness footage from the Revival at Asbury College in 1970 in Wilmore, Kentucky. Certain to challenge you to greater holiness and a deeper commitment to full-scale revival. Original news and private footage has been included.

WILMORE, Kentucky -- One morning in 1970, without warning, all heaven broke loose during Asbury College's 10 a.m. chapel service.

"When you walked into the back of Hughes Auditorium ... there was a kind of an aura, kind of a glow about the chapel," said Dr. David Hunt, a Louisville physician who was then a student.

"I always have been reminded of the verse 'Take off your shoes, for you are standing on holy ground.' You just walked in and sensed that God had indeed sent His Spirit."

The service, a routine meeting, was scheduled for 50 minutes. Instead, it lasted 185 hours non-stop, 24 hours a day. Intermittently, it continued for weeks. Ultimately, it spread across the United States and into foreign countries. Some say it is being felt even today.

2010 will mark the 40th anniversary of the landmark 1970 Asbury College revival, an unplanned, unled display of fervor that has been compared to the Great Awakenings of 1740 and 1800. This year will also mark the 60th anniversary of a strikingly similar revival Asbury experienced in 1950.

A bigger outbreak -- a global revival, in fact -- will begin soon, says David McKenna, president of adjacent Asbury Theological Seminary, in his new book, The Coming Great Awakening.

The revival might not start at Asbury, but it probably will begin on campuses, says McKenna, a noted author. He travels to many colleges and says, "I see the signs wherever I go."

Those signs include a generation of students wounded by family breakdowns and searching for spiritual fulfillment. Much of the coming revival will be a delayed reaction, McKenna thinks, to what happened at Asbury College 20 years ago.

I sensed in my heart that we are on the edge of a major outpouring of the Holy Ghost on the college campus. This is not emotion or fanaticism...this is real! I believe there will be a great season of repentance and an outpouring of God's Spirit. I believe the pattern of events that occured at Asbury in the past will be repeated here to a degree. I believe what the Lord is about to do here will be unprecedented and will spread elsewhere just as it did at Asbury! These are exciting times!

PRAYER ---> the most powerful weapon one can use in everything that has to be dealt in life... its mighty and yet it takes FAITH for it to be answered. We need to believe and pray for more revival in our youth today, as the dark spiritual forces come to attack against them who are the NEXT GENERATION and HEIRS of RIGHTOUSNESS.

Whatever butters your toast kiddies. REPENT! lol

Those other students in other universities he speaks about were protesting against the Vietnam War and other important issues. The students of Asbury shouldn't have forgotten about those issues either. They should have worshipped God but also spoken out about world issues like the Vietnam war and other important issues. Christians are supposed to have a strong sense about world justice.

I believe it's here. I believe God has birthed it. I believe it will be known as the Christmas annointing. Come Holy Spirit of God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Your people are hungry and in need of your Spirit and Power. Open our hearts Lord, help us to receive what you've already begun!
