Here's Nancy Lee-Demause.

We cannot make revival happen.

We cannot bring revival.

What we can do, as one Bible teacher the last generation said,

we can set ourselves to catch the wind from heaven

when God chooses to blow upon his people once again.

It's Thursday, September 13th,

and you're listening to Revive Our Hearts with Nancy Lee DeMoss.

A farmer can't just toss seeds on the ground and hope for the best. He has to prepare the soil, turning it over,

breaking up the hard places and sifting it. The same is true in your heart. You need to break up

the hard places if you want to see spiritual growth. Nancy talked about this yesterday, and she'll

continue today. She's in a series called Seeking Him, which also corresponds with a Bible study workbook

by the same name.

Well, we're continuing in this first week of a 12-week series on Seeking Him, calling

God's people to seek the Lord with all their hearts, And I trust that you're joining us on this journey.

It's not too late to get one of those seeking him workbooks, to get some friends together,

a group in your church perhaps, and say, let's seek the Lord together.

And as we continue in that process of preparing our hearts to seek the Lord for revival,

I want to direct our attention to a passage in God's word that I think gives us a powerful

word picture of what it's like when God comes and visits his people in revival.

So if you have your Bible, let me invite you to turn to the book of Ezekiel in the Old Testament,

Ezekiel chapter 37.
