 "Revive Thy Work O Lord!" - Andrew Murray

From "The Ministry of Intercession" by Andrew Murray

"There is a final thought suggested by the text from Hosea. It is as we return to the Lord that revival will come. For, if we had not wandered from Him, His life would be among us in power. "Come, and let us return to the Lord; for He has torn, but He will heal us; He has stricken, but He will bind us up. After two days He will revive us; on the third day He will raise us up, that we may live in His sight." (Hosea 6:1-2). As we have said, there can be no return to the Lord where there is no sense or confession of wandering. LET US RETURN TO THE LORD must be the keynote of the revival. Let us return, acknowledging and forsaking whatever there has been in the Church that is not entirely according to His mind and spirit. Let us return, yielding up and casting out whatever power of God's two greatest enemies - confidence in the flesh or the spirit of the world - has been in our faith.

Let us return and acknowledge how undividedly God must have us to fill us with His Spirit, and use us for the Kingdom of His Son. Oh, let us return in the surrender of dependence and a devotion which has no measure but the absolute claim of Him who is the Lord. Let us return to the Lord with our whole heart, that He may make and keep us wholly His. He will revive us, and we will live in His sight. Let us return to the God of Pentecost, as Christ led His disciples to turn to Him, and the God of Pentecost will turn to us."
