It may be too late for revival!

Surprised to hear that from me? A Preacher who has called for revival for years now? 

In Isaiah chapter 58, God told His prophet to “Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their transgressions…” (Isaiah 58:1). After listing many of the nation’s shortcomings, God said He was looking for someone to “raise up the foundations of many generations” and to repair the breach, to restore paths to dwell in (Isaiah 58:12). 

Since we as a nation have not heeded the call for revival in the land, we may be facing another American Revolution; a revolution that brings us back to fiscal sanity, traditional values, and a strong moral fiber.  You see, when you’re facing a massive mess (and we are) you need massive changes to fix it. 

America is at a crossroads and time is running out!  We are now at a critical time in our nation’s history.  We need radical change and it needs to begin with the people of God (judgment must begin with the house of God). If we don’t soon wake-up, we will soon lose the country we love and live in to paganism and apostasy. 

Is it too late for revival? Maybe, but Revolution may be more in line with what we really need to survive.

 As Christians, we’re destined for something much better than what this world has to offer!  As the old song says, “This world is not my home, I’m just a passin’ through, my treasure is laid up somewhere beyond the blue…And I can’t feel at home in this world anymore.” The Bible tells us our time on earth is brief (Psalm 103:15 / James 4:4).  If we’ve trusted Jesus as our Savior, our eternal home is heaven.  Therefore we are seen as pilgrims just passing through here.  We are aliens, strangers to this present, evil world system. Isn’t it silly? We spend so much time trying to “have it all” here and now, when in reality we already have it all “in Christ”.  Abundant life that Jesus told us about doesn’t have anything to do with having an abundance of things.  It has to do with the quality of life we possess with all the spiritual riches that come from knowing Christ. God warns us not to love this world.  We must never get too attached to “stuff”....

Humbly but Boldly

  Fervent prayer goes way back.  We know that prayer was a distinctive priority for the early church (Acts 1:14, 2:42, 3:1, 6:4 and many other verses). Calling on the Lord is seen in the life of the prophets; Habakkuk 3:1, Jonah 2:7, Daniel 7:17 and 9:13, Nehemiah 1:6 and 4:9, David in Psalm 4:1, 6:9 and 17:1. But prayer goes back even before Moses and Abraham!  In fact, the first mention of men calling upon the Lord occurs in Genesis 4:25 and 26. Yes, right in the book of Genesis – the book of beginnings. Before there was anything called the church, before there was a Bible, a choir, or any kind of “service” like we have today, men were calling upon the name of the Lord.  From the godly line of Seth, men somehow sensed they could call out to God and He would answer, He would listen and He would respond! The first prayers had sound! It was the sound of men expressing their needs, desires, and praises to God. My point is this: crying out to God in prayer is not some n...

Thank You

Hello everyone, Pastor Bruce here with an important announcement regarding our daily devotionals known as “The Pastor’s Pocket.” After today, these will be discontinued.   I am so thankful to each of you who have enjoyed reading these devotionals and I trust the Lord has encouraged you through each one. I challenge you, as Peter does, to “grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18).   It is my desire that you will continue in your own personal study of the word of God. Learn the Word, Love the Word, Live the Word!   There may come a time when I can write these again, but for now, I will devote my time to other areas of ministry and ways to serve Him! “To HIM be all the glory both now and forever. AMEN!”   The Pastor’s Pocket Pastor Bruce Freeman
