Today as we reflect upon Veterans day. We reflect upon the many who gave of there life for our Freedom.

Today many will be honoured for their service in our Great country. Today aswell many are giving of themselves for Our country. Many of you have families fighting

For us, as we think of the Sept. 11, 2001 event

(2 months ago to the day)

With all this we ask is there hope? I believe the

Answer is yes according to the word

Of God.

Where and how do we get the hope, with that lets

Look at our text.

Solomon prayer in 2 Chron.6

God’s answer in chapter 7

Revival is needed today

I) REVIVAL NEEDED IN AMERICA

A) America

*50 % + divorce rate

* 50% accept homosexual life style

* God kicked out of schools

* Increasing Crimes

* Abortion increasing (some cities report 50+ wkly)

* all would agree we need revival

B) Sept. 11, 2001

* the N.Y. and capital attack

* many have come to God and yet many still need to

* God may be using the church for such a time as this

What will it take for revival?

II) REVIVAL IN THE CHURCH

God said it will happen in the following way

1. If my peple called by my name….

Revival in America must begin in the house of God

2. Humble Themselves…..

Micah 6:8

Get rid of pride—churches all full of it

God gave the example –John 13

Christians are usually far from humility

3. Pray and seek my face…..

Seeking God’s face and ways

More than praying God bless America

But what can I do to help change things to His ways

Show me God and I will do it

4. Turn from their wicked ways….

Repent

Change

Church for long time has done it own things

Now time to do It His way

Church has to long been silent

The sin in America and the church must go

III) THEN THE BLESSING WILL COME

God said He’d

· hear

· forgive

· heal

Do you believe it?

Do you want it?

God told us how, do our part , then He will do His

We reflect upon those who have and are serving their country

They have and are paying the price

Will the church of America pay the price for Revival in our land?
