Episode notes
Found Leads To Public Rejoicing
- Salvation moves from being lost to found and then to communal rejoicing as shown in Luke 15's three parables.
- James McManus emphasizes that finding what was lost leads to public celebration, not private secrecy.
Glory As The Manifest Presence
- Psalm 85 ties revival to rejoicing and to God's glory dwelling among people.
- McManus defines glory as the manifest presence of God and distinguishes it from general presence.
Prepare Rather Than Schedule Revival
- You cannot schedule a revival; only God can bring it, so stop treating revival like an event to control.
- Prepare, pray, and sow before expecting God to respond with revival, McManus instructs.
