Revival comes when man totally surrenders to God's plan, Jesus command to reach the lost, and The Holy Spirit's Voice in obedience. 

A Prayer Song

Lord I long for more of You,

Because of this love You put in me.

It causes me to want others to know You too.

So Lord I cry make me more like Thee.

Lord I long for more of You,

It's because of this love growing in me.

The more I get to know the One who is faithful and true,

The more I long to be like Thee.

I long to know You more.

I long to see You Lord.

I long to hear Your voice.

I long to make Your will my choice.

I love You Lord.

Cause us to be in one accord.

You Get What You Pay For

I am not very wise. Sometimes because I want to save money I buy cheaper brands of things, which usually means poorer quality. I know sometimes that's ok in areas where it wont make a big difference or where it will most likely go un noticed. But it's not smart to do it in areas where it will make a big difference and be noticed right away, say as in coffee, paper products. Also in areas like throw rugs, where if  I get too cheap a one it will wear out quick and I will have to replace it more often. If  I want good quality items that will last long and be the best I have to pay extra for it. In some cases it is worth it. This stands true for my desire to know God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit in a more real way. It also holds true for my desire to have a real relationship with them. Also for my desire to see revival in my life home and church. I don't want any of these things to be faked in my life, so I can put out a whimpy effort to obtain them. I must pay a higher price, Jesus paid the highest price so that I can even dare to reach for that knowing, relationship, or revival that I mentioned. How and what should I pay? I should pay by dieing to self and living for God. This means always trying to choose God's will and way over my own. It means saying no to me and yes to God. Another way I pay is in quality of time I spend with God, How can I know Him or have a relationship if I don't put quality time in with Him? The price for revival in my life is sincere, intense; prayer, praise, and sometimes fasting. I must be willing to be totally surrender all of me to God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit and be totally empty, clean, open, and ready to be filled by Him. Can I have revival in my life? Yes but, I must pay the price of  my time and my effort to reach it it won't just fall upon me after a few have hearted prayers and hymns that last all of thirty minutes. The price of revival in church is similar. As a body we need to sincerely desire God to become alive in us to the fullest. This desire springs from an intense desire for the lost to be saved. Not just by our desire to see God or to see Him do something, He is not an entertainer doing requests. He has a purpose and plan for our lives, especially as a body. So as a body the price we pay is: we must be clean, we must pray for the lost, revival, God's will, and more. We must praise God for who He is and what He can, will and is doing. We must those who are able fast as a body when the Lord calls us to. We must die to our self as a body. We must be empty, prepared vessels, open and ready to be filled by Him. When He quickens the Holy Spirit in us to the fullest then, hearts will break for the lost, lives will change, the body will wake up, revival will come.

Revive us Psalm 85:4-7, Revive captives that they may repair God's house. Ezra 9:8-9, Revive the heart Isaiah 57:15, O Lord revive Your work Habakkuk 3:2 God's plan Luke 19:10, Acts 1:8
