  • Revival Devotion
    Lord, Show us Marvelous Things. Amen Five simple words that can revive your heart for 2019. Lord, Show us Marvelous Things. Jeremiah 33:3 Amen Church Family, My prayer for our church is above. Five simple words that encapsulate my heart for our church for 2019. Thank you for continuing this journey together, as we pray for personal and corporate revival. I believe that in my time as your pastor that the need has never been greater for revival in our church and in our homes. In order for revival to come, we must begin an inspection of our lives. This guide is written with that in mind. As you read, allow the Holy Spirit to begin the work of revival in your life. Would you be willing to pray? Jesus, You know every one of my sins. Please show me my spiritual brokenness and allow me to repent in my heart. Help me to confess and turn from my sins. Renew a right spirit within me. Let revival begin in me. I am excited to see what the Lord is going to do in and through our church family. Thanks for the honor of being your pastor. Please join me in praying... “Lord, Send a Great Revival!” Day Read Psalm 85 Jason Brown was the highest paid center in the NFL, playing for the St. Louis Rams. In late 2011, Jason had two children, and a mansion with two fully- stocked bars, yet he and his wife were "dying inside" and were likely headed toward divorce. As a Christian, Jason had to admit that his relationship with Jesus was a ticket to forgiveness and little else—until he released his grip on money and football.
