I really like how Nancy Leigh DeMoss says it:
"Seeking God for personal revival requires a level of honesty that, at first, may seem quite threatening. Covering up our faults and failures is an involuntary reflex. At first glance, it often seems like the best option. We want others to think the best of us. However, humility (which we talked about last week as one of the first prerequisites for revival) requires the willingness to be honest with God and others about our true spiritual condition."
If we are truly looking for revival we need to be honest with God, honest with ourselves and honest with others.
"Nothing can enter heaven which is not real; nothing erroneous, mistaken, conceited, hollow, professional, pretentious. insubstantial, can be smuggled through the gates. Only truth can dwell with the God of truth." -Charles Spurgeon
See you Sunday!
