Review this week's message.

Key Thought:

Revival: A reviving of interest (as in art, literature or religion).  



Start talking. Find a conversation starter for your group.

Tell the group your highs and lows from the past week!



Start thinking. Ask a thoughtful question.
  • What stuck out to you from this weekend's message?
  • What does it mean to “wake up to the reality of not fully following God”? Do you feel like you are truly following God wholeheartedly?
  • How can you humble yourself before God in your life right now? What do you need to give Him full control of?


Start sharing. Choose questions that create openness.
  • What is a habit/sin that is keeping you from fully following God? How can you overcome it?
  • What do you need God to “revive” in your life? What is the part you need to play in getting there?


Start praying. Be bold, and pray with power.

Jesus, pour your spirit out on our cities and our church campuses. Help us humble ourselves and seek You more. We want to see You move! Amen.



Start doing. Commit to a step and live it out this week.

Whatever God has put on your heart to repent of and change, DO IT! You won't regret following God fully.


Scriptures

Josiah was eight years old when he became king…In the eighteenth year of his reign, King Josiah sent Shaphan..to the Temple of the LORD.  (to do renovations)  2 Kings 22:1,3 NLT

Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the court secretary, "I have found the Book of the Law in the LORD's Temple!" Then Hilkiah gave the scroll to Shaphan, and he read it.  2 Kings 22:8 NLT

Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.  1 Timothy 4:12 ESV

When the king heard what was written in the Book of the Law, he tore his clothes in despair. "Go to the Temple and speak to the LORD for me and for the people and for all Judah. Inquire about the words written in this scroll that has been found. For the LORD's great anger is burning against us because our ancestors have not obeyed the words in this scroll. We have not been doing everything it says we must do."  2 Kings 22:11,13 NLT

She said to them, "The LORD, the God of Israel, has spoken! Go back and tell the man who sent you, 'This is what the LORD says: I am going to bring disaster on this city and its people. All the words written in the scroll that the king of Judah has read will come true.  For my people have abandoned me and offered sacrifices to pagan gods, and I am very angry with them for everything they have done. My anger will burn against this place, and it will not be quenched.'  2 Kings 22:15-17 NLT

You were sorry and humbled yourself before the LORD when you heard what I said against this city and its people-that this land would be cursed and become desolate. You tore your clothing in despair and wept before me in repentance. And I have indeed heard you, says the LORD.  So I will not send the promised disaster...  2 Kings 22:19-20a NLT
