REVIVAL: BENEFITS FROM; STEPS TO.

FEBRUARY 27, 2012
REVIVAL BENEFITS AND STEPS

BENEFITS
Aside from evangelism, revival services produce various blessings for those who have been saved, including:
1- Backsliders are restored to a right relationship with God and others:
2- Believers make total commitment and become entirely sanctified;
3- Vision is renewed and enlarged;
4- People are called to the ministry (domestic and foreign).

True revival comes when parishioners focus on God in an exceptional way. Remember, "revival" implies a need to re-focus and re-commit. These 4 things should be happening during regular services. But in any case, "Keep On Keeping On."

STEPS
Here are three easy to remember steps to Revival (renewal, restoration). These three steps are found in Christ's words to the churches in Revelation (chapters 2-3).
1- Remember what God has done. Remember where you were with God.
2- Repent, change your direction, you mind. Quit looking to sin, Satan and self, instead, look unto Jesus, the Author and finisher of faith. Whatever is good, think on those things.
3- Repeat your commitment, believe, surrender, obey, praise.
