From Our Pastor- Lordship and Revival
When you study the revivals of past generations you always see God working in the life of an individual. Revival starts when one or two people are concerned about the spiritual condition of their lives or the spiritual condition of their families or even their church or country.
God places a burden or concern in their hearts for change, for a spiritual awakening! The transition has begun in their lives. It is not about me but it is about HIM! Jesus is Lord!
Only God can change your heart’s desires. Only God can burden you to pray! Only God can give you love and compassion for people who are living in sin!
God starts the preparation of our hearts out of our desperation. Our prayer, our cry, is for God to come to us. I cannot save myself! I can not keep myself! I can not revive myself! I then submit my life to the management of Jesus. I bow down to the Lordship of Christ!
II Chronicles 7:14 reads:
“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
Revival starts with a surrendered, tender, praying heart. We must bow to the Lordship of Jesus (humble ourselves) and seek His face.
Let’s vow to pray together for revival!
