Revive Us, Oh Lord 11-26-17 Sermon Notes

Revive Us, Oh Lord

Hosea 6:1

Theme:  For the follower of Christ to accept the invitation to come to the Lord fresh and new.

Statement of Truth:

Hosea's faithful love for his unfaithful wife became a prophetic picture of God's love for His unfaithful people.

Revival is a Real Possibility:

I. The invitation to Revival.

• To Have a Crisis of Belief:
• Recognition of a problem
• Repentance from the problem 
• Returning to the Lord 

II. The heartfelt pursuit of the knowledge of the Lord

1. A growing knowledge of facts about God
2. A heart understanding about those facts
3. A  real experience with God  
4. An abundance of Blessing from God

III. To be continued…  This Wednesday night at 6:00 PM

On your own read and study the following passages:

Colossians 2:6-6;  Exodus 5:2; Habakkuk 2:!4; Isaiah 11:9; Acts 17 

Questions to Consider:
1. When you are given an Invitation how do you normally respond?

2. Is there an attitude, or behavior that you are holding onto that is keeping you from revival?

3. When was the last time you had a crisis spiritually?

4.  How much do you know about the Lord?  {That is not near enough}

5. In order to experience revival are you willing to respond to the call for intentional pursuit?
