How to prepare your heart for revival Part 4/4

Examining your own heart Hosea 12:10

Break up the fallow ground;

Breaking- humble yourself before the Lord.

Confess that your heart has become hard, fallow, and shallow.

Acknowledge it is your own responsibility to break up the fallow ground.

Ask for his help and guidance in the breaking – the Holy Spirit will assist us.

Confess all known sin-all the usual suspects- found in the Ten Commandments

Include unforgiveness, bitterness, grudges, and resentment- then forsake them.

Examine your heart...

Examine your heart for unbelief.

Examine your heart for prayerlessness.

A sinning man stops praying, a praying man stops sinning [1].

Examine your heart for the lost.

Examine the priorities of your heart.

Is your first priority in the material world?

Is your first priority in human relationships?

Is your first real priority to get money, power, or possessions?

Is your heart, seeking first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness knowing that all these things shall be added unto you?

What are you living for? Who are you living for?

Next, deal also with the questionable things in your life. It might not be outright sin, but does it glorify God?

Examine your friendships and associations –do they please God?

Develop convictions to protect yourself from falling into sin.

Convictions help integrate our hearts (inward) with our actions (outward)

Job made a covenant with his eyes [2]......

For it is time to seek the Lord;

Seeking – the time to seek God is now –the time to seek his face is now- the time to seek his face in faith is now- believing he wants you to find him now.

It is God’s will for you to find him- when you seek him with all your heart.

Til he comes and rains righteousness on you, Persisting- how long O Lord?

Persist until he comes – he will certainly come if we persist.

If we focus on the persisting –He will focus on his coming-

Yes, the very presence of the living God will come down on you- History testifies to this in the Lewis revival.

Prepare ye the way of the Lord in your own heart- remove every obstacle – and bring the presence of the living God in a new way into your heart.

God wants to do a new thing in your heart today.

Raining-Until the Spirit is poured on us from on high [3]

And the wilderness becomes a fruitful field.

And the fruitful field is counted as a forest.

God wants your heart to be an orchard.

God promised to pour out his Spirit on the dry and thirsty ground[4]

He promised that the crocus and the rose would bloom in the desert place.

Imagine fragrant flowers and sweet fruit trees in planted in the soil of your heart.

God desires to breathe in your fragrance.

God desires to taste the sweet fruit of your character.

Jeremiah says, ‘break up your fallow ground and do not sow amongst thorns.’

Conclusion

The reason we do not have revival is that we are willing to live without it. [5]

The alternative to revival is progressive decline into barrenness.

Sow for yourselves righteousness; Reap in mercy; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the LORD, Till He comes and rains righteousness on you.

Let us bring the plough of God’s word into the fallow grounds of our hearts today asking God to empower the plough by his Holy Spirit and that he shows us exactly what needs to be removed.

Are you willing to break the fallow ground in your heart? are you willing to be made willing?

God is willing and God is able to help each one of us break up our own fallow ground.

Amen

Sow Seed However You Want To; But, If You Sow Wisely...

Have you ever sown seeds and watched them grow? I remember the bean we put into a jar in kindergarten. It was so cool to sow it properly and watch it come to life!! Well, think about what it means to Sow and Reap: Consider both the process and the outcome. “Sow for yourselves righteousness; Reap in mercy; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the Lord, Till He comes and rains…

How to prepare your heart for revival Part 3/4

Hosea 10:12 breaking up the fallow ground

Here is God’s solution for a backslidden and lukewarm church.

Sow for yourselves in righteousness –Sowing; –live right before God-

Believe and practice God’s word- let it dwell in your heart richly- Ask the Holy Spirit to water the seed of the word-Pray fervently-share the gospel.

Sow only good seeds Do only good deeds

Reap in mercy; Reaping; when we sowed in righteousness, we reaped a harvest of the Lord’s loving-kindness (chesed)

Our God is Chasidic-full of loving kindness.

Our God multiplies the righteous seed we have sown way beyond the measure we sowed.

Our first cycles of sowing and reaping produced a good harvest.

But something crept up on us- the sin crouching at the door?

Or the worries and cares of this life? The pursuit of wealth?

And now whatever has happened, the soil of our hearts has become fallow ground.

Examine your heart..........................take the Tozer [1] test.

The fallow heart is smug and cannot be taught much.

The fallow heart is self-contented.

The fallow heart is protected from the shock of the plow.

Some hearts have lain fallow year by year, safe and undisturbed.

The fallow heart focuses on past fruit.

The fallow heart has two signs on it; ‘Do not disturb’ and ‘Past-master.’

The fear of the plough means there can be no present fruit.

The spirit of adventure is dead.

The fallow heart is fenced in, and God is fenced out.

The fallow heart smiles indulgently at fastings, revivals, self searching and the need to move on in God.

The fallow soil has been hardened and can only support weeds, thorns, and thistles.

The very seeds sown by the world, the flesh, and the devil.

The soil of our hearts lies fallow to varying degrees-what state is your heart in tonight?

Examine your own heart... and take the Plough [2] test.

The ploughed heart practices confession and repentance

We need to keep short accounts with God and each other.

The ploughed heart has a sign ‘not safety first.’

The ploughed heart is discontent in God.

The ploughed heart is yearning and full of godly sorrow.

The ploughed heart is courageously obedient and ready to bear fruit.

Break up the fallow ground; Breaking- humble yourself before the Lord.

Confess that your heart has become hard, fallow, and shallow.

Acknowledge it is your own responsibility to break up the fallow ground.

Ask for his help and guidance in the breaking – the Holy Spirit will assist us.

Confess all known sin-all the usual suspects- found in the Ten Commandments

Include unforgiveness, bitterness, grudges, and resentment- then forsake them.

Amen

Prayer

[1] A.W. Tozer

[2] Michael Catt The power of surrender; breaking through to the ploughed life.

In Part 4 we continue to examine our own hearts and deal with our lives.

Unbelievable! The Woman Who Believed in a Preposterous Message

Almost every Christmas pageant contains the Angel’s appearance to Mary. Luke’s narrative about Mary’s conversation with Gabriel described her reaction to some pretty unbelievable news. If you think about it, there is much to learn from Mary’s response to God’s messenger. (And BTW, the Greek word for angel is anggelos, or messenger—simply put, a courier who brings a message, or a word from someone…
