I know these are times that try men’s hearts, but I have a great deal of hope in the mercy and grace of my God. I know many things seem to point to a point of no return as we spiral out of control into the end times. I get that. I, too, see the signs. But I know one major thing about my God that gives me a sense of hope and even excitement. My God is eternal! My God is not governed by time; the clock or calendar. My God is more concerned with timing. My God is not willing that anyone would perish, but that all would come to repentance.
What is my hope?
Since God is eternal He is not worried about running out of time. Therefore, if we, His people, will meet certain requirements, there is plenty of time left for another great awakening to the reviving of His church and the saving of untold millions of souls.
I am certain God wants to do this, but I am not certain God’s Church is willing to pray the price. You see, until the church moves back to respecting the sacredness of biblical marriage in God’s House by repenting and removing the sins of fornication, adultery, and yes, even divorce, revival will remain out of reach. At this point, the church refuses to admit its own wrong-doing, while pointing fingers of judgment outside the church.
“If My people, which are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land” (2 Chronicles 7:14).
The church must take ownership of her sins and repent!
There is a window of hope. Church, let’s get this right. The LORD is waiting. The world is waiting. Pray for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit! Pray for God’s mercy! Pray for a fresh wave of evangelism! Pray that the Spirit’s power will flood America and give free reign to yet another Great Awakening. This is our final hope! Come on, Church, Pray On!
