Awake Devotional: A 5-Day Devotional By Hillsong WorshipSample

> There is a sound that changes things > The sound of His people on their knees > Oh, wake up, you slumbering > It’s time to worship Him > Awake My Soul > Words and Music by Brooke Ligertwood > © 2019 Hillsong Music Publishing Australia At the beginning of this year, our Senior Pastor Brian Houston declared that ‘REVIVAL IS IN THE AIR’. This was a statement of faith and expectation, both for the local and global church. It is upon the foundation of Jesus’ death and resurrection that everything has new life. This album project for us was a beautiful reminder that the Holy Spirit is always at work in the story of our lives. He was weaving this narrative long before we ever caught on, the idea that REVIVAL – a bringing back to life the people of God from a state of slumber and apathy – is in the air! REVIVAL is unique to the church, to the gathering of God’s people. REVIVAL starts with us, but it does not end there. With REVIVAL comes an AWAKENING. The uprising of godly men and women who are committed to prayer, and praise – to not only reading, but obeying the Word of God and to healthy fellowship and community, who’s influence and impartation, then impacts the nations. Our AWAKENING goes far beyond the four walls of the church and has a ripple effect to the broader community – it is a picture of God pursuing hearts, beckoning those still asleep, still blinded by sin, back into right relationship with Him. It is our belief that REVIVAL has a sound; that AWAKENING has a sound. It is the sound of God responding to His people praying and seeking Him. Together, a people on their knees, desperate for God to move, will undoubtedly unleash that sound to the nations… > Awaken by Lawrence Tribble > One man awake, > Awakens another. > The second awakens > His next door brother. > The three awake can rouse > A town > By turning the whole place > Upside down. > The many awake > Can cause such a fuss > It finally awakens the > Rest of us. > One man up, > With dawn in his eyes > Surely then > Multiplies. PRAYER: Dear Jesus, Thank You that though I was once dead in my sins, You rescued and redeemed me and that I can live fully awake in You. Lord, let revival start with me. Let the church of Jesus Christ around the world AWAKE, Your glorious bride rising to her full potential. I pray today for an opportunity to share Your resurrection power with those around me. In Jesus mighty Name, Amen. SUGGESTED LISTENING: Dawn, Awake, 2019 Awake My Soul, 2019
