Thank you brother for posting this...extremely edifying and encouraging...and convicting.
The entire time listening I just kept thinking...oh how we are missing it so much of the time...I am missing it. There is a depth to this dear sister that I know I do not have...and am stirred to seek the Lord about.
Thanks again...
wow, i thank you from the bottom of my heart for posting this, it has been a tremendous blessing and encouragement to me. thank you so much and praise the Lord for His goodness and faithfulness! Lord, have mercy and do it again in this generation...o how we need it...
This was SO ENCOURAGING! Please everyone listen to it - it is only 30 minutes long and will BLESS YOU!
Thanks for posting this, how wonderful, really encouraging. LORD please send revival and start with me.
Inspiring.
Thanks, Neil, for posting this link.
OH Praise God! that i was used to bring forth a small treasure and encourage you all, as i was so enccouraged in the Ministry of Jesus.
you could actually SEE with your hearts eye, the Divine Reality of Christ living in this dear woman...it was REAL!
and Mary Peckham is special to me on a personal level, i have a dear Mother in Christ, who recently went to be with Him, Mimi Sutherland, and for a season, a blessed season, every Thursday at 8 pm, five saints would gather in her living room for intercessory prayer. What a season that was, i'm telling you, we scaled the heights of Jesus, prayers for the community, individuals, going up like Incense before God. and when i wasnt on my face, or knees, i would sit next to Mimi in a 2 person couch and just lean into her, and Mimi has that sweet Indwelling of the Holy Ghost that Mary Peckham has,and when Mimi would pray.......oh brothers and sisters, the home prayer meeting is a Powerhouse!
to close, i live now in a rural area, much like the Hebrides, i asked God for it, He gave me a wonderful dwelling, on a ridge, and i tell you, there is much "dry wood" around here...many many mainline churches that are sparsely attended simply because the denominations have given Jesus short shrift, i dont want to name the denominations...but i'm praying for God to strengthen these weak knees, and give me the Call...not that i'm anything special, but when i came to Christ, and found this site, i was particuraly attracted to the ministry of Duncan Campbell....every "young" convert should seek human models of Grace, and he has always been mine, along with such men as David Brainerd and i'm very fond of Michael Brown, but when Duncan preaches, i hear a yes and amen in my soul, and thats NOT to "idolize' him.....NO!......you see, every Jewish boy studys under a rabbi...Paul studied under Gamiliel, so pray that God stregthens my weak knees, would be to Him that he pour forth Living Waters on a dry and thirsty groundl. amen.
Thanks Neil.
I was privaledge to see Mary and Colin Peckham at the Revival conference in Scotland in 2008, where she sang that same song. I would recommend reading the book written by Mary and Colin on the Hebridian Revival called 'Sounds from Heaven'.
Also my wife and I went for a week's holiday on the Isle of Lewis in 2009. It was great to see and experience the Island. The churches are still strong there compared to the UK generally, but sad to see that in one generation most of the community has lost that awareness and fear of God. It just shows that we need to be constantly seeking the LORD for His presence among us.
thank YOU and bless you Dave...."Sounds from Heaven"...amazon is my next stop, God bless you richly, my brother, neil
The documentary "Wind of the Spirit", regarding this same revival, was very encouraging as well.
God bless,
Doug
What a blessed testimony, and so riveting!
Many thanks for posting this, Neil.
Just ordered "Sounds from Heaven"

I got this link from a thread by brother Frank about what is taking place right now on these islands.
Very encouraging.

Diane, in Jesus' love, you are most welcome, Mary WAS riveting wasnt she?...she spoke with an Authority, that points to a sweet Baptism of the Holy Ghost...NO person can cook up or feign such, they can TRY, but that exercise is rather foolhardy, i would think.
i been thinking about that, about being REAL in Christ, having a veritable authenticity in one's witness and testimony, casting aside that brittle veneer of religiousity. Thats what drew me to Duncan Campbell's witness, testimony and preaching, he's real, he confesses to time, 17 years, "wandering in the desert"...when he "went into the ministry" as a vocation to support his wife and wee ones. Thats not a swipe at the pastors who labor for God's Kingdom and Jesus, but for this man, Duncan, he dried up and he admitted it later, and it was his very DAUGHTER who gently led him to this grievous truth with a pointed question, "Daddy, when was the last time you led a sinner to Jesus?"....lemme look for the link, i want to listen to it myself again. Because once his daughter asked him this, the man was undone, sought an audience with Jesus, and he had visions of a multitude streaming into hell;
here it is

can you imagine having such a terrible vision?...that would lead, i believe, to a baptism of tears, because the FIRST circle around you is KIN, that are unconverted, and the vision of them......i cant even type those words.
i'm going to go listen to it again, neil
Hi all,
Just to let you know that Dr & Mrs Peckham have a new website out (as of July 2012) - www.revivals.org, which over time will contain many of their sermons, testimonies, articles, and other resources. You will also be able to ready Mary's full account of her testimony, last published in 1977, "I was saved in revival" which we are preparing to release as an ebook. I hope this will be a blessing to you.

hi there,
Fear not, Sounds From Heaven is still in print and available on both amazon.com and amazon.co.uk :)
God bless,
Colin Peckham (Jnr)
