Biblical Quote for the Day: |
|
“If my people … 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 KJV) |
|
"How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers! But his delight is in the law of the Lord. And in His law he meditates day and night." (Psalm 1:1-2) |
|

From George Kelley: |
|
Prayer is our Highest Worship
|
|
In prayer we come into God’s presence … we talk with Him. We are His children … He loves us. Our father God longs for visits with His children. What father, if his son asks for bread, would give his son a stone?
God loves America. God has a plan to save the United States of America. He has promised to heal our land … if we pray. In prayer we ask Him to forgive our sins.

The Radical
By: Erin Wikle
|
|
Do you live a radical life?
When I consider those within my sphere (or just outside it) who seem to live very Christ-inspired and radical lives, they all share a number of common characteristics. Usually, "the radical" unabashedly proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to whomever, whenever, and however they need to. (Bull horn, anyone?) Usually, "the radical" are loud and outspoken and hold strong convictions about Christian faith and practice. Usually, "the radical" have a keen sense of the work of the Holy Spirit and when the Spirit speaks, "the radical," do. Usually, "the radical" care very little about the impressions sinful man leave on them, but care much about the impression they leave on sinful man. As William Booth once said, "Go for sinners... and for the worst." This epitomizes the work of "the radical." I could go on, but you get the point...

Revival Praying:
An Urgent and Powerful Message for the Family of Christ
by Leonard Ravenhill
|
|
Leonard Ravenhill presents prayer as faith in action in this fast-paced presentation of this crucial subject. He called prayer the most essential ingredient in producing revival. Filled with exhortations and illustrations, it teaches the art of effective praying—which will result in revival. Moody Monthly said, "This is a plea for praying that will melt the preacher’s heart, move the people, and magnify the Lord Jesus."
About the Author
Leonard Ravenhill was born in 1907 in England. He became one of Britain’s foremost evangelists, preaching with vigor and power. He emigrated with his family to the United States in midlife, where he continued his ministry. The author of several books, including Revival God’s Way and Why Revival Tarries, he went home to be with the Lord in 1994.
