REVIVE US AGAIN!

“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and

seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I

hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal

their land.”

“Revive us again,”

“But not now.”

I. WE MUST ADMIT IT IS OUR FAULT.

The reason that America is a mess is because the

American church is a mess!

Joshua 7:10: “The Lord said to

Joshua, "Stand up! What are you doing

down on your face?”

Verses 11-12 “Israel has sinned; they have

violated my covenant, which I commanded them to keep. They have taken

some of the devoted things; they have stolen,

they have lied, they have put them with their own

possessions. That is why the Israelites cannot

stand against their enemies; they turn their backs and run because

they have been made liable to destruction. I

will not be with you anymore unless you

destroy whatever among you is devoted to

destruction.”

They wanted the victory of God enough that they immediately

corrected the problem and obeyed God.

This is where RCBC finds herself.

We don’t have the power of God for the victories we need. There is sin in the

camp.

“When you get serious about wanting true

spiritual victory, then and only then will I

work.”

II. GOD’S PRESCRIPTION FOR THE DEFEATED

A. HUMBLE YOURSELF.

1 Peter 5-6: “For God resists the proud but

gives grace to the humble. Humble

yourselves under the mighty hand of God that He may exalt you at the

proper time.”

B.SEEK HIS FACE.

“To him that knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.” (James

4:17)

C. TURN FROM YOUR WICKED WAYS.

There’s sin in the camp.

Are you willing to remove it so we can have

victory? Then let’s sing revive

us again-and do it today!
