| What is the Passion that drives your... | | prayer for Revival???
I seriously would like to know WHY are YOU so strongly desiring to see God's Spirit move Mightily and Most Assuredly upon our Nation and the World...
I am surprised to see that for some, it is not the same reason as for others.

| Re: What is the Passion that drives your... | | Wow - great thread. I can't wait to see the responses.
There are so many things that would change through revival - our churches, our cities, our nations....I don't know that I can fully comprehend the impact that REAL revival would have.
But what an awesome thing it would be to see the glory of the Lord restored to the church. I always love to read in the books of Acts about how people recognized that the apostles had been with Jesus. He left a mark on their lives. I think maybe there is too little of this today. (I speak for my own life) And so I want to see His glory revealed in my life and in my church and in my city and in my nation....That all might know that the presence of our God is with us. I mean, what if the body of Christ walked in holiness and love? What if our lives were a continual worship of Jesus? What if we really carried the fragrance of Christ with us?

[/b] Because thy lovingkindness [is] better than life, my lips shall praise thee. Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name. [b]My soul shall be satisfied as [with] marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise [thee] with joyful lips.[/b]" _________________ Joe Auvil

| Re: | | Why pray? for His glory.. For praise to His name.. He wants our worship He wants our hearts But it is all for His Glory
under that.. that lives will be saved to praise him and enjoy him
We have no power without God, and use prayer give us power, and we need power to be used as soul winners
But we will not pray or weep as we should until we feel the way God does about America
We need feeling again
In his love charlene

I see it the same way too...it is not that I am so wanting to see change in man, for man's sake...but change in the hearts of man, for the sake of the Glory of God !!! |

To often it we make about us, when It is all about our King. someone told a few years ago. don't be sad you sinned, because you sinned, but because you didn't give glory to God.
that's what makes us weep, we are not giving Him the He should get when we sin. When our Church's are sining when our nation is sinning.
