The Spirit of Revival (Second Edition): a Contrite and Humble Spirit Scott Markle

Publisher Marketing: Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, And he shall lift you up. James 4:10 The primary purpose and premise of this book is to focus our attention upon the principle that Biblical humility is absolutely necessary for spiritual revival. Indeed, the ground of spiritual revival is the ground of Biblical humility; and the ground of Biblical humility is the ground of spiritual revival. Without Biblical humility an individual cannot enter into the path of spiritual revival; and when an individual turns aside from Biblical humility, his progress along the path of spiritual revival will be lost. If we desire spiritual revival, let us humble ourselves. Let us humble ourselves to repent of any sinful iniquity and stubborn rebellion in our lives. Let us humble ourselves to plead for and trust in our Lord's abundant grace for our lives. Let us humble ourselves to deny all self-will and to submit ourselves wholly unto our Lord's will. Let us humble ourselves to tremble at the truth of God's holy Word with a life of faithful obedience. Let us humble ourselves to depend wholly upon the power of our Lord's might for spiritual victory. Let us humble ourselves to give all glory and honor unto the Lord our God and Savior. To those who will humble themselves, the Lord our God has certainly promised His work of spiritual revival in their lives. To those who will humble themselves, spiritual revival is divinely assured.
