WHY WE NEED AN OLD TIME REVIVAL

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

     Old time religion is quickly becoming a thing of the past.  The old time worship of the Lord is fading away, but thank God, it’s not gone. Here’s a few reasons why is it so important that we have an old time revival in these day?
    We need an old time revival because we need some fire in our soul.  Friend, the light is about to go out. An old time revival will get the fire burning again!  The Lord told us to let our light shine, but if the fire is gone out, how are we going to shine?  In the temple, the lamps were to burn continually.  We need to realize how dim the light has grown and begin to pray for the fire to come down.
    We need an old time revival because we need some fervency in our prayers. Many pray, but there’s just no fire there.  James said that it’s the effectual fervent prayer that gets the job done.  A prayer that’s on fire.  If we can get the fire back in our praying then it will avail much.
    An old time revival will bring some faithfulness in our service for the Lord. Oh how we need to be faithful to Him and to His House! We need to be faithful in going, faithful in giving and faithful in growing!  An old time revival will bring that kind of faithfulness!
    We need a real old time revival because we need to feel something when we get to the House of the Lord.  I realize that salvation is not based on feeling, but rather faith, but I also know that if you’re not feeling something when you go to worship, you are soon going to be dropping out.  Pray that God would send us that kind of revival.  
    We need some real faith in God in these days!  The kind of faith that only a real revival can bring.     Friend, do you have that kind of faith today?  Please pray for revival today!
