Revived and Kickin’

Description

“Dear God,

Can you hear me? Are you there? I need you….

I can’t do this alone… I can’t carry on. Why is this happening to me?

God, I beg you… do not abandon me. Do not let this be the end of me.”

Somewhere along your journey, it will feel as if God has gone silent, and your problems have become so loud that they are all you can hear. At times like these, you are overcome and overwhelmed by your woes and are left gasping for air as you sink deeper and deeper into trouble

I may not know much, but I know these two things.

1. God loves you.
2. In this world, you will have trouble.

You will have deserts and storms.

Storms hit us out of nowhere. They’re swift and crushing. But take heart that in the storm, God is sovereign, and He remains in control even in the moment of greatest pain. You will not be broken by this storm.

The other trouble we will face in this world is the desert. The desert is different from the storms. God leads you into the desert so that you can be renewed in spirit and that your carnal ways can be put to death there. If you are in a desert, this is part of God’s plan and purpose.

This book will help you get through this desert, not just alive and kickin’ but Revived and Kickin’.

While wandering through my own wilderness, God gave me forty images to illustrate the four phases we all need to go through to be revived in the desert:

• Reflection – Why me and why this?
• Reaffirmation – What do you know for sure?
• Repentance – What’s love got to do with it?
• Revival – Have you found what you’re looking for?

So, over the next forty days, let’s talk as we walk through the desert.
