Personal Revival from a Spiritual Recession

The collapse of major banking
institutions, worst stock market plummets since 1929, the foreboding financial recession the experts keep speaking of and warning of, etc. Where is our hope and encouragement going to be found? The news? The government? $700 billion? The next president? New policies? Is our spiritual level dependent on the Dow Jones high lows or Wall Street?

What is clearer to me than ever before is that our hope must be before the throne of God above, our hope must be built on nothing less than Jesus and His righteousness. That is the solid rock we can stand on as believers, while all other ground is sinking sand.

There is still much debate and talk in the world about how to revive our economy and prevent financial recession, but I want to give you some good news for a change this morning – not from the world, but from the Word of God, where true encouragement is found for personal reviving of your soul from a spiritual recession.
