MY FRIENDS, A TOTAL MAKEOVER; REVIVAL, RENOVATION AND RESTORATION!!!

“Come and quench this thirsting of my soul. Bread of Heaven, fill me up, and make me whole.” Yes my friends let your hunger and thirst be made whole,” because All roads to the kingdom and eternal life goes through God’s word and Spirit as the process of REVIVAL, RENOVATION AND RESTORATION takes place.

Key word is CHANGE, which can only occur in our life if we develop a passion like we have never had before, a passion that drives us all the way to Calvary as we take up the Cross and follow Christ wherever He leads. Oh what a challenge to be “crucified with Christ; because once this happens it is no longer we who live, but Christ who lives in us; and the life which we now live in the flesh we live by faith in the THE BREAD OF LIFE who is the Son of God, who loves [each of us] and gave Himself for all who believes.

Christ also tells us in John 6:51 (KJV) I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”and through this life a REVIVAL, begins that leads to a complete RENOVATION AND RESTORATION from within.

Now my friends what will we give in return for a total makeover, remember we were on the auction block going to the highest bidder, until Christ paid the ultimate price to RESTORE us into His character. And now because of what Christ has done for each of us we should be willing to give Him our all. Paul tells us in 1 Cor. 15:10 (KJV) But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect.

No, I worked harder than all of them yet not I, but the grace of God that was within me. yes my friends we must be willing to work harder than anyone else, we must challenge and push our self to serve God as we begin to make extraordinary things happen for the glory of God as we take the good news of the gospel to everyone.

For Christ tells us “Truly, truly, I say to you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but my Father gives you the true bread from heaven. For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.” John 6:32 (KJV)

My friends we were given life as God brought about a change that RESTORED us into His image and now we must  tell the world that God RENOVATES AND RESTORES as He allows a REVIVAL to take place in our life and through that REVIVAL we will begin to let our light so shine that all may see Christ within us and what He has done to prepare us for His kingdom.

So today, as we move through all of life’s challenges, and as the world views us, they must only see the BEAUTY and Character of Christ And if that is not the picture we portray to others,  then we must ask our self what must we do to bring about a CHANGE in our life so only the BEAUTY OF THE SON WILL SHINE through us.

Webster’s definition of Change is “something different from what it is or from what it would be if left alone:” And friends if  we seek the kingdom of God our character must exemplify who Christ is and what He means to us personally. Most of us seeks change but in most cases we are incapable to make it happen, because it would involved a “Spiritual transformation, or restructuring of our lives around the three R’S REVIVAL, RENOVATION AND RESTORATION.

So as we travel on this Journey to the promise land  we must admit not to ourselves but to God that a CHANGE must take place in our lives 2 Cor. 5:17 tells us Therefore, if anyone is IN CHRIST, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
