Description
Refresh Bible Study Book includes a small-group experience for nine sessions as well as eight weeks of short daily individual study.
Churches across America must awaken to the realization that they need a fresh touch from God. The principles presented in this study will help your church focus on the essential elements of revival: desperation, surrender, and persistence.
Desperation:
Brokenness is not something we sign up for, but it is a necessity if we are going to be useful. When we are weak, He is strong. In the darkest hour, He shines the brightest. The power of desperation is something the world cannot comprehend. In this place where strength is lauded, we see that broken people have unexpected power with God. The blessings of the broken and surrendered are immeasurable.
Surrender:
Revival is key to our survival. Our churches do not need a tune-up of old programs or a facelift; we need an overhaul. We don't need help; we need deliverance. God is looking for a remnant, for kindling wood to start the fires of revival. And it all begins with surrender. We must surrender ourselves to God in total abandonment. There is power in surrender.
Persistence:
When we work, we work. But when we pray, God works. When we pray, we partner with God. God is not interested in our innovative methods. God is moved by the prayers of simple saints who learn in the quiet place to lay hold of the throne of grace. Prayer is not incidental to the work of God; it is the work!
