I was so blessed this morning by an article written by Bro. Jack Skinner in the Miracles & Missions Digest, and wanted to share an excerpt with you.
"Revival is not an emotional stir; revival is repentance! Revival is prayer in His house! Revival is being revived again by the Holy Ghost through repentance (turning from sin and its devices back to a Holy God in obedience to His Word)! Revival is weeping with a repentant spirit in a believer's life who has followed the carnal thinking of a false pretense that excitement is godliness. Revival is bringing to God an acceptable sacrifice according to His Word, not one influenced by the devil as Cain's was. "The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit." Psalms 34:18 - Jack M. Skinner
May God grant us true revival!! We need it! Let's not be satisfied with anything less than a true manifestation of His presence!
