Revival

How long can we go without food before our body becomes weak? How long without water before we are in danger of death? When the people of God are separated from His word for any length of time we are prone to stumble; our hope falters, our peace withers, our assurance fades. If we are seeking revival we won’t find it’s source inside ourselves, or in redouble efforts at religious activity. As Nehemiah and the people of Israel discover after decades of exile, revival flows from rediscovering the refreshing and nourishing word of God.
