The River of God: Moving in the Flow of God's Plan for Revival

This book is worth buying if you only read the vision given to the author, at the beginning of the book. If you are interested in what God is wanting to do in his church, the believers, in these last days before the return of Jesus, this is a book for you.

Pastor Sheets reveals God's intent for mankind in a very imformative way. He uses good scripture references and alot of biblically historical information to show how the Holy Spirit has worked throughout the past. Also how He will flow through our lives and shows what we have to do to make it possible. He covers previous moves of God and explains how we can keep ourselves from getting in the way of the flow of the river of God! A MUST READ FOR ANYONE WHO IS SERIOUS ABOUT LIVING FOR CHRIST!

Mr. Sheets makes his work interesting, informative and understandable. He has a great sense of humor that helps tremendously in presenting facts that are usually less than interesting. I found myself laughing uncontrollably at some of his stories told at his own expense.

As I read this book, I was challenged to get off my duff and pray for real revival in me. I so want the "river of God" springing up out of me. I felt that Sheets' use of scripture to make his points was sharp and well-thought-out. As far as I could tell, context of scripture was not laid aside for proof-texts, but rather the context served to better illuminate the points being made. I was not bothered by the use of his imagery in the description of the vision God gave, and was actually looking forward to seeing God begin to fulfill that vision in me as I read and applied each chapter to my own prayer life!
