Giving To God: A Revival Is Waiting  

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Oct 20, 2024

We often pray and desire for revival to happen. But are we going about it in the right way? Do we know what is holding it back? Is there something practical that God says we’re not doing? There is something that God specifically points to saying, “Return to Me, and I will return to you.”
