(verse 4) It is not until "Sponge Bob Square Pants" gets OUT of the pulpit and John the Baptist gets IN the pulpit will we feel the rain of revival. Preaching on the pages of the Bible has always been LOUD and LONG! (Please read Acts 2:14 and Acts 20:9) It takes ripping!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>II.</B><B> II TAKES REPENTING. </B></div> <div> <B>A fact that will always birth a revival is there must be personal penitence. (verse 5) What the modern church needs is to trade wool, polyester and silk garments for some that are 100% "SACKCLOTH"! (II Chronicles 7:14) It takes repenting!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>III.</B><B> IT TAKES REQUESTING. </B></div> <div> <B>A fact that will always birth a revival is there must be prevailing prayer. (verse 8) Derelict prayer closets, vacant altars and abandoned mid-week prayer meetings have never been the catalyst for a considerable move of God. Christian, why not start your own revival by simply returning to your own "prayer closet"? (Matthew 6:6) It takes requesting!</B></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
