The Preamble . . . . . . . .The Preamble To Revival – Chapter 21b
A preamble, according to www.merriam-webster.com, “is a statement that is made at the beginning of something (such as a legal document) and usually gives the reasons for the parts that follow: something that comes before and leads to something else.” In layman’s terms, it is the explanation of a document. When we get to Nehemiah 9, we come to what I believe is the preamble to revival. We cannot experience revival unless we experience repentance and forgiveness as Israel did in Nehemiah 9. Pastor Mac Brunson said this week, “Confession of sin is not a prerequisite to revival – it is revival.” Here are two thoughts for you to think about:
- If we are going to experience revival, it will take intentional, sacrificial time and effort on our part to show God that we really want His spirit to fall on us!
- If we want our nation to experience a revival and a change, it is going to take intentional, sacrificial time and effort and most importantly a moving of the Holy Spirit in this country to bring it to it’s knees.
