AWAKENING AND REVIVAL
John 10:27
"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me."
Revelation 2:4-5
"But
I have this against you, that you have left your first
love. Therefore remember from where you have fallen, and repent
and do the deeds you did at first; or else I am coming to you and
will remove your lampstand out of its place—unless you repent."
Jeremiah 1:12
Then the LORD said to me, “You have seen well, for I am watching over My word to perform it.”
Then the LORD said to me, “You have seen well, for I am watching over My word to perform it.”
Acts 28:31
"preaching
the kingdom of God and teaching concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all
openness, unhindered."
Ephesians 5:14
For this reason it says, “Awake, sleeper,
And
arise from the dead, And Christ will shine on you.”
2 Chronicles 7:14
“If My people, who are called by My name, shall
humble themselves, pray, seek, crave, and require of necessity My face and turn
from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and
heal their land.”
1 Corinthians 13:12
“For now we are looking in a mirror that gives
only a dim (blurred) reflection [of reality as in a riddle or enigma], but then
[when perfection comes] we shall see in reality and face to face! Now I know in
part (imperfectly), but then I shall know and understand fully and clearly,
even in the same manner as I have been fully and clearly known and understood
[by God].”
WHY?
1 Peter 2:9-10
“But you are a chosen race,
a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that
you may proclaim the excellencies of him who
called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not a
people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received
mercy, but now you have received mercy.”
Oh, sweet and adoring Jesus ... Savior, Friend, Messiah, and First Love... awaken us and revive us and allow us to hear Your Voice. May we, as part of your radiant Bride, be beautiful to you, whole within you. Spur us into an unabashed awareness of You and Your Kingdom, right here in this place and space, that we might proclaim and shout and announce the glory of Your Face. Amen.
