The Life of Revival

2 Corinthians 13:8, “For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth.”  We live in a time like that of ancient Rome when Pilot heard Jesus’ mission to “testify to the truth” and proudly retorted, “What is truth?” John 18:37-38.  Many people today have adopted a view of truth known as…

1 Timothy 3:14, “If I am delayed, you will know how people ought to conduct themselves in God’s household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.”  The church is the only thing that Jesus said He would personally build and that the gates of hell couldn’t overcome,…

Matthew 28:19-20, “19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”  The only…

1 Thessalonians 5:17, “…pray continually.”  The night of Jesus’ arrest He asked His disciples if they could pray for just an hour, but they ended up falling asleep.  The Bible says in Mark 14:37, “Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Simon,” he said to Peter, “are you asleep?

Ephesians 5:31-32, “31 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. 32 This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church.”  God said it was not good for man to be alone so He gave…

Matthew 25:35-36, “35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you…

1 Thessalonians 5:23, “May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”  When Jesus came to this earth He walked in perfect holiness.  He lived a life that was separate from the sinful world. …

James 5:16, “Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.”  Everyone on the job is accountable to someone and if serious problems arise there are consequences in the form of discipline.  If the troublemaker on…

Hosea 6:1, “Come, let us return to the Lord. He has torn us to pieces but he will heal us; he has injured us but he will bind up our wounds.” The definition of revival is, “a spiritual awakening of the church in their love for God and people that impacts the community with salvation…

Proverbs 29:2, “When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan.” The definition of a cultural revolution is, “the inward turning of a society’s value system to the commands of God resulting in the forsaking of sin for the righteousness of God in the culture as a whole,” Jonah 3:7-10,…
