Is Revival Possible?
I know many people who are praying for revival or an awakening. They see it as the only hope for America. I just saw an awakening, but it was not in America... it was in India. I recently returned from a mission trip to India. Fifteen people spent 11 days putting on two concerts and witnessing door-to-door. In those 11 days over 45,000 people were exposed to the gospel and over 3,000 became Christians.
In four days of door-to-door 1-on-1 ministry the gospel was shared with over 1,750 people and 1,069 became Christians!
In America I can spend a year witnessing to ten times as many people and only one or two trust Christ. We have very hard hearts in America, solidified by our self-centered wealth and re-enforced by the strength of pride. All things come from God... both salvation and hard hearts. So can we blame God? No. Our natural condition is that of an enemy of God. We hate God and oppose Him in every way we can. It is only through God's grace that our hearts can be softened and opened to the good news of the gospel.
