The evangelism and discipleship II
It is so good to meet with you, precious children of God, on the pages of „Daily Word for Spiritual Edification”. I believe that these encounters inspire and encourage you.
Today I would like us to turn to Lamentations of Jeremiah.
«Arise, cry out in the night, at the beginning of the watches; pour out your heart like water before the face of the Lord. Lift your hands toward Him for the life of your young children, who faint from hunger at the head of every street» (Lamentations, 2:19).
This is not a routine call to ordinary prayer, but a call to cry out to God to send a revival and deliver our children and the next generation from inevitable disasters and tragedies. Every serious revival has started with people’s heartfelt cry directed to God. So if we want to see a revived generation in our land, if we want to see godly children and youth, if we want to leave true spiritual legacy to the next generations, we must know that God desires us to do what this passage of Scripture tells us. If you want to see a real move of God in your life, your family and your church, then it is very important to ponder upon this verse. There is a parallel verse in 2 Chronicles (7:14); it talks about God’s desire to send us a revival. Revival will not come without our participation. In order for us to see an awakening and the works of God’s mighty hand in our lives and the lives of our children, we must not ignore these guidelines to revival that God gives us.
«..if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land» (2 Chronicles, 7:14).
This verse calls us to humble ourselves before God, to pray and seek His face so that we can turn from our wicked ways, and then God promises to send us a revival. Then He will send us healing – from crisis, tragedies, horrors that nowadays we see around us. Let’s search out our hearts and follow the advice God gives us today.
Be blessed!
