Revive My Heart (1 of 4)
Series: Alive - Reviving Spiritual Passion
Frank Damazio
Introduction: We all get worn down with life, trials, adversity, routines, and sinful habits that need breaking. Alive will focus on the work of the Holy Spirit to recover our spiritual passions and fill us with a new freshness, a new awakening, and a reinvigorating work of God. To be alive is to possess life, active, and to be full of living, abounding, with nothing dead. Romans 6:11 says we are to be dead to sin and alive to God. Were it not for the shocking events of life, some of us would never consider our need for revival. Just when we settle down into the routine of our ways, the Lord shocks us from our staleness. God can do great things in our lives and in our church. We must position ourselves for God to pour out His Holy Spirit upon us in a special and specific way and believe for a profound personal encounter with God in supernatural proportions.
