"God's Word And Revival"

Contributed by Craig Cramblet on Aug 22, 2003

It is easy to read or study (or preach) Nehemiah and get so captivated by the qualities of the man that we lose sight of the power of God and His Word that were the foundation of this amazing accomplishment.

In the book of Nehemiah, we’ve seen one man (Nehemiah) come from Persia to the city of his forefathers (Jerusalem) and in a matter of just a few months, take the piles of RUBBLE and turn them into a secure city wall. He has formulated and carried out a plan. He has organized people and ...read more

Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Oct 22, 2003

"Revival Requires Repentance”

Contributed by Barry Edmondson on Mar 29, 2008

It’s for lack of repentance by God’s people! A key to how this works is found in Isaiah 6. Isaiah 6:1, 5-8 In the year that ...read more
