God can use even TikTok to bring glory to Himself! Praise Him!

From CBN News. The revival currently taking place on the campus of Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky is being compared to the culture-changing revival at the same college in 1970, but there’s something different this time. The new non-stop prayer and worship awakening has social media as a powerful ally, and that didn’t happen in previous historic campus revivals.

The impact has already been so powerful that this ongoing Spirit-led event has drawn the attention of major media outlets.

But it’s also drawing a wider worldwide audience, particularly of young people, to witness what is happening through firsthand accounts, photographs, and videos with many of these posts going viral. …

“It has absolutely been social media that is the mechanism that people found out about this,” Mark Whitworth, Asbury University’s vice president of communications, told the outlet.

Social media aside, what’s happening at Asbury is being called a genuine move of God — the real deal — for multiple reasons. There’s no high-profile leader, and there’s nothing glitzy going on either. Asbury’s chapel is configured simply. There are no large projection screens or fancy lighting. It’s just persistent prayer, heartfelt worship, an open altar call, and wooden sanctuary chairs filled with people who are hungry for God.

Yet this sincere move of the Holy Spirit has gone viral. On Instagram and TikTok, videos hashtagged with the words “Asbury Revival” are drawing millions of views. CBN News checked Instagram Thursday morning for #asburyrevival. There are more than 1,000 videos currently circulating on the site. On TikTok, the same hashtag had more than 24.4 million views as of Wednesday.

And that’s not all. Just type in “Asbury Revival” on Twitter, Facebook, or YouTube to see multiple posts and videos of the revival.

These videos have sent the revival around the world, stirring up spiritual hunger in the hearts and minds of viewers everywhere. The response of many users has gone beyond the typical “Like” or comment on the videos. It has caused some to make a personal trek to Asbury to see for themselves, according to multiple reports. …

WKYT-TV reports people from all across the state and the country have traveled to the Asbury campus to take part in the worship service. People from as far away as Oregon showed up to sing, raise their hands in praise, or kneel down to pray.

“No big lights or big media or anything like that. It’s proof the Lord is working. Right now. Amazing to see. We just wanted to be a part of that desperately,” said Aniston McClellan who traveled from Nashville.

While the word has clearly spread like wildfire, University President Dr. Kevin Brown told NBC the school made the intentional decision not to publicize the event on their own, “because we wanted to place an abundance of respect towards the experience of our students.” …
