REVIVAL
“Restore us, O God Almighty; make your
face shine upon us, that we may be saved”
~
Psalm 80:3 ~
We Know We Need Revival When…
- We do not love Him as we once did.
- Earthly interests are more important to us than eternal ones.
- We would rather watch TV than read the Bible.
- We have little or no desire for prayer.
- We would rather make money than give money.
- We know truth in our heads that we are not even trying to practice in our lives.
- We make little effort to witness to the lost.
- We are more concerned about our careers than the Kingdom of God and the salvation of the lost.
- We watch things on TV and movies that we would not show in church.
- Our hearts are cold and our eyes are dry.
- Our singing is half-hearted and our worship lifeless.
- We aren’t seeing the regular evidence of the supernatural power of God.
- We are bored with worship.
- We are more concerned about what others think about us than what God thinks about us.
- We aren’t exercising faith and believing God for the impossible.
- The fire has gone out in our hearts, our marriages, and our church.
- We are blind to the extent of our need for God and don’t think we need revival.
“Only where the Spirit is cried for, sighed for, and prayed for will he be present and newly active” (Karl Barth).
