Revival

I believe Moses is praying for a revival.

Exodus 33:18 And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory.

Revival is close when we long for and pray for:
• The presence of God to guide us day by day;
• The glory of God to be revealed so that He might receive worship and praise for which He is worthy.

When the Lord begins to move in a life or in a church, He has a way of rooting out sin, selfishness and hypocrisy. That’s revival.

Are you hungry to see the Lord move in your life?  Are you willing to seek revival? It will change your life forever.

"Hallelujah, Thine the glory, Revive us again!"

My Lord -- My Everything

“My" is the first pronoun learned by most children. They say things like "my toys", "my house", "my room", etc. This is their childish way of saying they know what is theirs.

David says "my" eight times in the following Psalm as he expresses simple, childlike faith in his relationship with the Lord.

Psalm 18:2  The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

The Lord supplies everything David needs for the battles he faces. God is his everything. God can be our everything if we let Him.

A Sound Mind

The Apostle Paul knew there would be times when Timothy would face doubts and fears. He encourages him in a letter.

2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Doubts and fears are not of God. They are likely two of the biggest hindrances to the Christian and their witness for the Lord.

We don’t have to live in fear. We can live in confidence through the power of God. He equips us to face whatever comes our way.

The spirit of love and a sound mind are of God..

Joy -- Down In My Heart To Stay

JOY.  When I think of joy I immediately think of happiness, but real joy is more.

It isn’t slapping a silly grin on your face and walking around like that all the time. It isn’t pleasure either. These are affected by circumstances.

When life situations please us, we are happy. When there are problems, we are unhappy.

Real joy can’t be touched by the circumstances of life. Real joy is a sovereign gift of God. It’s part of the fruit of the Spirit.

Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

Real joy can’t be shaken but endures all things with a confident glory that nothing can rattle.

You and I will not always be happy in life, but we can always have joy.
