AUGUST 5
OLD TIME REVIVAL

Scripture:   Psalm 85:6 “Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?”

     What America needs, what our churches need, what individual believers need, today more than ever, is an old fashioned revival.  We talk a lot about what revival will do, what the results will be, but very little about what it really is. Revival will yield a lot of results that will help our personal lives.  It will help our churches.  It can turn America around.  But just what is real revival?  And if it is so great why doesn’t ever believer have it?  I submit to you today that most believers are not revived, simply because they do not want revival in their life.  
    Revival will cause us to say things different.  It will cause us to see things different.  It will cause us to do things that may require us to sacrifice many of the things that we really want to do instead.  If you experience a real personal revival, you will gladly give up things that will take away time you could be spending with the Lord. Do you have this kind of revival today?  
     Could it be that real revival comes when we wholly give ourselves to the Lord?  We find ourselves a prayer altar and just give Him all we are, all we have and all we ever shall be.  Then we get up from that altar and leave ourselves in His hands. Not my will but thy will O Lord, should be the prayer of our hearts if we want real revival in our souls today!
    So revival is a bringing to life again the things that have died or gone to sleep in our spiritual lives.  It’s a getting rid of those things that are holding us back from being what He would have us to be. Have you prayed for a real personal revival to break out in your soul?  Quit living a defeated life!  Let Jesus bring revival to your soul as you yield to Him today!
