Why Revival Tarries

Why Revival Tarries
Together as a team we are reading the book, Why Revival Tarries by Leonard Ravenhill. It is a book full of conviction and truth. It has convicted me especially in the area of prayer and I wanted to be able to share with all of you what I have been learning. This quote should stir conviction with in you and if it does not well then . . . : )
“We have many organizers, but few agonizes; many players and payers, few prayers. Many singers, few clingers; lots of pastors, few wrestlers; many fears, few tears; much fashion, little passion; many interferers, few intercessors; many writers, but few fighters. The two prerequisites to successful Christian living are vision and passion, both of which are born in and maintained by prayer. To be much FOR God, we must be much WITH God!”
Wow, if that doesn’t make you really think about your prayer life and your passion for the Lord then I don’t know what will! It was so convicting for me, each day we spend a lot of time in prayer as a team. But how much time do I personally spend with the Lord in prayer. I have learned that I can really never get enough of talking to my Lord. So I hope that this is an encouragement to you in your walk with the Lord. Spend time with HIM talk with HIM, HE is who we live for so it makes sense that we communicate with HIM!
