Nothing but the Truth by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 06/20/11

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: When God revives a heart, it brings about true humility.

“Revival began in my life when I humbled myself and called a judge’s office. Years earlier I’d been a witness in a federal court trial, and I hadn’t told the whole truth.”

Nancy: In times of revival, God convicts His people of their sin and calls them to repentance.

“God was speaking to my heart about this sin. I had to make it right, even though I knew I might end up in jail.”

Nancy: Maybe there’s a situation in your life that requires humility. Remember these words from Proverbs 29: “A man’s pride will bring him low, but the humble in spirit will retain honor” (verse 23).

“After a total wait of about a year, I got word that neither side wanted to reopen the case. I was a free man. But true freedom had come when I had humbled myself and said yes to God.”

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss.
