A Word from THE WORD

Good Morning Happy Church,

Today is Friday, February 26^th, 2016. Today is the 57^th Day of 2016.

There are only 309 days left in this year; and, there are only 44 Days Left until Our Spring Revival Begins!

We will begin the Revival Meetings on Saturday, April 9^th with a Banquet and Sermon at 6pm.

Sunday, April 10^th, we will hear Bro Bobby at 10am and again at 6pm.

Monday and Tuesday, April 11^th and 12, we will hear Bro Bobby at 7pm each night!

Please clear your schedule to attend as many of these meetings as possible.

As I often say, “The two things you have to invest to be blessed are your Attendance and your Attention!”

Please be in prayer for Dr. Bobby and Sandra Boyles as they travel here and back.

Pray that God will pour out HIS SPIRIT on us as never before!

Pray for the salvation of the lost; repentance and renewal in the life of God’s people; new people to become part of our Church Family; the calling out of ministers and missionaries; a spiritual awakening in our area; and, for Jesus Christ to be glorified in all that we do!

Luke 15:11-24

¹¹ “And he said, “There was a man who had two sons. 

¹² And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the share of property that is coming to me.’ And he divided his property between them.
¹³ Not many days later, the younger son gathered all he had and took a journey into a far country, and there he squandered his property in reckless living.
¹⁴ And when he had spent everything, a severe famine arose in that country, and he began to be in need.
¹⁵ So he went and hired himself out to one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed pigs.
¹⁶ And he was longing to be fed with the pods that the pigs ate, and no one gave him anything.
¹⁷ “But when he came to himself, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have more than enough bread, but I perish here with hunger!
¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and I will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you.
¹⁹ I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Treat me as one of your hired servants.”’
²⁰ And he arose and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.
²¹ And the son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
²² But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring quickly the best robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet.
²³ And bring the fattened calf and kill it, and let us eat and celebrate.”
²⁴ For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.’ And they began to celebrate.”

EUREKA!

When James Marshall found gold in California in 1848, he reportedly called out, “Eureka!” which is the Greek word for, “I have found it” as in I have discovered the solution!

Since January 21^st, I have written to you almost every day about revival. I have looked a multiple verses and made every application I can find in those verses.

And now today… I have found it!

I have found the KEY to revival!

It is right here in Luke 15:18, the Prodigal Son says, “I will…”

Revival is certainly possible. It may even be likely.

But, whether or not WE experience revival will depend on this one question: will WE?

Will we pray?

Will we adjust our schedule?

Will we attend?

Will we seek God’s will?

Will we do what God convicts us to do?

Will we repent?

Will we do whatever is necessary to experience revival?

Will we?

The Prodigal Son was turned around because he determined that he would do what he had to do.

He did.

Will we?

If we come to the place where we will say “I will” to God, we will experience revival.

One more time; will we?

Revival CAN happen, it really CAN happen!

Will we really have revival?

We will soon see!

Carpe Diem!
