Devotion: Revival
Revival
2 Chronicles 7: 14 "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."
If I were to ask how many would love for your home, your Church, your town to have revival, I believe the vote would be over 75% in favor of Revival. It is a fact that every great Revival had a starting point. Many great Revivals started with just one person. Did you know that a revival could start at YOUR home, at YOUR church, in YOUR town all because of YOU?
The one thing that keeps us from having revival is this; it is always other people that are in need of Revival, not us. You know, Christians are so SELF RIGHTEOUS and we wonder why did Jesus have to die for these perfect/sinless people? The fact is, there is NONE righteous, NO NOT ONE!
Revival must start with YOU, so don't be quick to point out your brother or sisters faults! The Lord want you to be concerned with YOUR faults and the Lord is ready for YOU to deal with YOUR faults first. I have found this true, if we deal with our faults, then we will not have any time left to worry with our Brother and Sisters faults.
Instead of singing REVIVE US AGAIN, WE SHOULD SING, REVIVE ME AGAIN!

1 Timothy 3:16
16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:
God was manifested in the flesh,
Justified in the Spirit,
Seen by angels,
Preached among the Gentiles,
Believed on in the world,
Received up in glory.
