  • Revival - Something we all need

    I recently recieved the following email about a series on revival by Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones that I think we all need to hear, (I know I do!)!

    Dear Brothers and Sisters,

    Please forgive the basic appearance of this eMail - I ran out of time to get it to our wonderful HTML
    professional!

    In 1959 my grandfather interrupted his weekly studies in the book of Ephesians to bring a six month
    long series on a subject that was very close to his heart - Revival. These messages were preached to
    commemorate the great Revivals in1859 in various parts of the world.
     
    However, his objective was not just to provide us with a history lesson, but to give us an incisive
    critique of the Church and its problems in 1959 - problems with which we are still struggling 50 years
    later.  He did not want to just give us an analysis of the problems that we face, he also wanted to show
    our desperate need for the sovereign work of God in our day and generation. It is our desire that the
    Lord will use this series to call his people to prayer that He might, once again "rend the heavens and
    come down" (Isaiah 64:1).

    These sermons will be on Oneplace.com in October and November, and we hope that you will have a
    chance to listen in.

    As always, we only want to send these eMails to those who want to receive them, so if you have
    received this in error, please accept my apologies. You can hit "unsubscribe" at the bottom of this
    eMail and Groundspring will remove you from the database.

    Every blessing,

    Jonathan

    Amen, brother. It is good to hear from you after so long.

    We are all in dire need of revival.

    I'd also received this message; thank you for passing it along here. I've listened to six other messages from that same sermon series on revival here and have read them all as well (ML-J's book "Revival"). I would encourage everyone to listen to all of them. I'll rec this so more might go and listen!

    O LORD, I have heard the report of you,
    and your work, O LORD, do I fear.
    In the midst of the years revive it;
    in the midst of the years make it known;
    in wrath remember mercy.
    Habakkuk 3:2
