Refreshed and Joyful aka REVIVAL

Acts 3:19-20
"Repent ye therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, that so there may come seasons of refreshing from the presence of the Lord; and that he may send the Christ who hath been appointed for you, even Jesus"

--> Seasons of refreshing. That's the core of revival. Refreshed from the Lord's presence, awakened to live for Him. That others might find Him. I love these words. The knowledge that Jesus the Messiah, the Christ, the joy of Heaven, the Savior, was sent for every single individual. He was sent for you. He was sent for me. Is that not refreshing? Does that not fill a person with awe? We were given love. Are we so hardened that we can't find a steadying joy in that? Joy with which to live for Him. We need to live it out.

Psalms 32:11
"Be glad in Jehovah, and rejoice, ye righteous; And shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart."

Psalms 105:43
"And he brought forth his people with joy, And his chosen with singing."

Nehemiah 8:10
"for the joy of Jehovah is your strength."
