Restoration, Resistance, Reign (and Rain) | Ariel Blumenthal

About this sermon

At Tikkun Global, we believe the time of final restoration Peter described in Acts 3:21 is unfolding right now. In Restoration, Resistance, and Reign (and Rain), Ariel Blumenthal offers a compelling look at how God is restoring His people through seasons of resistance, pouring out His Spirit like rain as He prepares the way for His return and reign. Drawing on examples from the past, this message uncovers the types of opposition we are facing today while pointing to the hope of God’s ultimate purposes on the earth. Watch and be encouraged that even in the midst of conflict, the work of restoration is moving forward. ___ 00:00 Introduction: Restoration, Resistance, and Reign 00:33 Tikkun Global - What is Tikkun? 01:22 Acts 3:18-21 This is the Gospel - the 2nd Coming of Yeshua 02:57 Why Restoration Is Happening Now 04:50 The Physical Restoration of Israel 06:13 The Spiritual Restoration of God’s People 06:35 The Restoration of the Church 08:52 Resistance in the Biblical Pattern 11:16 Nehemiah and Three Forms of Resistance 12:33 One - Sanballat: External Opposition 16:28 Two - Tobiah: Moral and Sexual Corruption 20:17 Three - Geshem: Resistance from Islam 24:17 His Reign and the Rain of the Holy Spirit 27:54 Zechariah 4:1-9: Not by Might, Not by Power, but by My Spirit 28:47 God Will Finish What He Started
