So often the busyness and uncertainty of life crowd God out, leaving us with barren hearts. Truly joyful, abundant life is possible only one way -- through personal spiritual revival. In Revive My Heart!, author Catherine Martin presents nine weeks of daily quiet times that will lead you to investigate the depths of God, His ways, and His character through prayer and consistent study of His Word. Exploring passages such as Psalm 119, Revive My Heart! looks at the many aspects of spiritual revival. Through these daily quiet times you can gain spiritual depth, joy, and access to your heavenly Father's resources in times of trouble. Book jacket.
My moms' group read Catherine Martin's book - Six Secrets to a Powerful Quiet Time - over the summer, which I highly recommend either before or as a companion to this bible study. The author sets up the bible study in a great, organized format which is easy to follow and is very thorough, but which also truly prepares your heart to delve into God's word and get the most out of it. When I ordered this study, I wasn't even certain that I NEEDED spiritual revival - I just knew I needed a daily format to keep me on track. But it has been an amazing study, and God has used it mightily in my life. On days when I am feeling completely broken, I open to that day's study - and the study is on brokenness. On days when I am feeling convicted of my shortcomings, the study for that day is on repentance and forgiveness. It has truly been amazing. I have never, in my Christian walk, been good about maintaining a consistent daily quiet time and bible study - but that has all changed now. I have a new passion and love for the word of God, and I look forward every day to seeing what the Lord has for me in His word through this bible study. I highly recommend it to ANYONE - whether you THINK you are in need of revival or not!

This book is a great devotional for an individual or a group which is what I did with my connection group (bible study).

This Bible study book has led me on a wonderful journey deeper into the heart of God. Filled with quotes by A.W. Tozer, Charles Spurgeon, Hannah Whitehall Smith, Amy Carmicheal and others, plus Hymns such as "The Old Rugged Cross" that inpsire and encourage; the author continually points to God's Word for filling a thirsty soul and growing in a walk with Christ. I'm buying her other books. God bless you! From Catherine's book: 'Perhaps you are thirsting for God because He has placed that thirst deep in your heart, that you might search Him out in a deeper way than ever before. Perhaps God wants to show you something new about Himself. God desires an intimate, open, vulnerable relationship with you. Don't be afraid. Instead, draw near. Pray that prayer that comes from deep within your heart and soul: Revive my heart, Oh Lord!' James 4:8 "Draw near to God and He will draw near to you."
