"14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray
and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from
heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land."
2 Chronicles 7:14 NIV
We are having a revival at church at the end of this month. I am so very excited about it. I remember in my early years as a Christian, we would have tent revivals and people would be at the altars just crying out to God. I am expecting this very thing to take place in just a few weeks.
I am so passionate to reach the lost and dying of this world. It frustrates me how complacent we Christians have become. It's time to revive the passion for God in each of our lives. The verse above gives us explicit instruction on what we need to do to have God move in our life! Go to God in all humility, pray seeking His face, repent of all sin...small and large. When we do that, God will hear us in heaven and will forgive us and then heal our land. Our land could be our marriage; it could be a strained relationship with a child or parent or friend. Our land could be anything in our life that needs a divine intervention!
Let's have a revival! Let's get passionate about the work of the Lord. Jesus was!
Amen! I pray the revival starts at the revival but that people realize they don't need a revival to actually have a revival. We can live out that revival in our every day lives with a burning passion for God.
