Title: The Need for Revival
Author: Jerry Watts
Text: 2 Samuel 11:1-5, 12
- Revival is more than a series of meetings marked on your calendar.
- We give God space and time to REVIVE the COLD heart and TRANSFORM the LOST HEART. My prayer is that God sends an authentic, heaven-sent, life-altering, landscape-changing, and Holy Spirit directed outpouring of His power and presence and that Revival breaks out. Has that been your prayer? Are you longing for it? 2 Chr. 7:14, we will visit tomorrow.
- A great 20th Century revivalist, Leonard Ravenhill said, "The only reason we don't have revival is because we are willing to live without it!" "As long as we are content to live without revival, we will."

- At the beginning of 2021, the Lord awakened me one night and turned my attention to the story of David.

Yet, he did.
- There is not a Christ-follower nor a church anywhere who sets out to need a revival in their life. When Jesus saves us, we never think about the day coming when we become like the Ephesian Church in Revelation 2 and abandon Him as our first love. It never occurs to us that we could a caricature of the church at Sardis where we have the reputation of being alive when the Lord says, 'you are dead.' We would think it's inconceivable to be like the Laodicean Church, who says, "I'm rich, , and need nothing," while the Lord says, "YOU MAKE ME SICK". No one sets out to be like this. Not me, you, any church or even King David - the man after God's own heart, no o ...
