The Hope of Revival

Part 1: Come Alive - Hearing from God

The journey of coming alive to God begins with the invitation in Revelation 3:20-21, where Jesus offers to enter our lives and transform them, giving us the ability to see from heaven’s perspective. This transformation unfolds through revelation, relationship, and revival—shifting from merely knowing about God to experiencing life with Him. The key is becoming a people who hear from God and respond in obedience.

The key to coming alive to God is learning to hear Him more clearly. Many Christians are already communicating with God, often without realizing it—whether through prayer, when they pour out their hearts and feel peace or comfort in return, or through worship, where they sense God’s nearness. The real question isn’t whether we are hearing from God, but how we can hear Him more clearly.

Hearing God requires a heart that actively seeks Him—not just to study Scripture but to encounter Him personally. Listening intentionally, obeying what we hear, and stepping forward in faith open the door to deeper relationships and spiritual growth. God directs us as we move, but obedience is essential to discerning His voice. Today, the invitation is to welcome God fully—no matter how broken life may feel. His love and power are greater than any mistakes or failures, and He is ready to walk with us in every area of life: marriage, parenting, work, and finances.
