Great Revival starts within

Matthew 6:33
" But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you."

We have to seek His kingdom first because He is our priority not ourselves. Keep the main thing the main thing and the details will fall into place. Focus on God, I know it's too cliche but if we believe that the Lord heals and we do not believe in our realistic mind that He will not heal us of our bondage that is contradicting. We should live our lives believing that it is also possible to us because we are also His.

Our beliefs about the Lord and how we live our lives should be in harmony. Revival is a great move of God in our life and there has to be transformation within us. Being better than we used to be rather than being better than others, without prejudice.

One time I was praying and very softly the Lord impressed in me  He said, "Look in your heart,.... how much faith do you see?" I was embarrassed to admit it was very very little almost nothing. Then I thought what about, how much love? how much hope? It is easy to say I have faith, I have love, I have hope but if we really examine our daily actions and reactions to others, it exposes us. As part of the body of Christ I think we will all benefit in challenging ourselves with this question in our private devotion time with the Lord. I was alarmed to see very little it's almost nothing.

Ezekiel 18;25-32

"Yet you say, ' The way of the Lord is not right.' Hear now, O house of Israel! Is my way not right? Is it not your ways that are not right? "When a righteous man turns away from his righteousness, commits iniquity and dies because of it, for his iniquity which he has committed he will die. "Again, when a wicked man turns away from his wickedness which he has committed and practices justice and righteousness, he will save his life. "Because he considered and turned away from all his transgressions which he had committed, he shall surely live; he shall not die. "But the house of Israel says "The way of the Lord is not right.' Are My ways not right, O house of Israel? Is it not your ways that are not right?

"Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, each according to his conduct," declares the Lord God. "Repent and turn away from all your transgressions, so that iniquity may not become a stumbling block to you. "Cast away from you all your transgressions which you have committed and make yourselves a new heart and a new spirit. For why will you die, O house of Israel? "For I have no pleasure in the death of anyone who dies." declares the Lord God. "Therefore, repent and live."
