final awakening which our country

spiritual deepening which the
church so much needs. There is

L. NJ. LowelD.
Israel had come to the place
where the people recognized that
they we're on the brink of national
disaster. They knew they had
come to the end of the trail, and
were ready to do something about
it.
|. Return Unto the Lord ". 81.
Samuel appears in his first public
ministry to call on his people to
return to the Lord. Back of that
public act is the history of cody
life and devoted service to the Lord
and to His nation. Such man
can consistently urge others to turn
to God.
The response of the people was
wholehearted. They were thorough
Iy sick of their sin and separation
from the favor of God. The earnest
of their sincerity was their obedi-
ence to the admonition of Samuel
that they turn from idolatry.
II. Put Away False Gods wv. 8, a.
Israel had learned from their
heather neighbors to worship their
n false gods. These they must put
away if God was to be able to bless
them. The same prerequisite to
spiritual revival exists today. But
some may say, we do not worship
heather gods. Perhaps not, and
yet one is astonished at the close
similarity between the ritual and
worship of some secret cults and
orders and the ancient religions OF
heathendom.
The fact is that we have set up
many new gods-money, fashion,
social position, and what not. The
command needs to go out again
through Gods messengers, PUT
away the foreign gods"
III. Gather Together and Pray
wv. 5, 81.
Spiritual life thrives on the gath
ering together of Gods people. The
crisis in Israel was met by great
convocation of the people. We need
to revive the great soul-stirring
religious gatherings of a generation
ago We can get plenty of people
together for a prize fight, a football
match, or an auto race, but where
are the people who should be in
our churches?
will pray" said Samuel. He
was a great intercessor. (See /
Sam. 1911; Ps. 1915; Jer. 15:1D
Revival never comes without his
tory of faithful intercession on the
part of those whose hearts were
really burdened. Ask yourself,
now much have / really prayed for
revival in my church, my commu-
nifty, and my nation? If should
