40 Day 09 -Devotional readings

I read the Words of Life (Salvation Army publication) regularly, in fact since the first issue called "Soldier's Armoury was issued. I use a couple of other devotionals. The one that I look forward to receiving is produced by Love Singapore. It is a devotional and 40 Day Prayer Guide beginning from 1st July and ends on National Day 9th August. I have been gladly blessed in using this book.
This year the theme is "when darkness falls" based on the book of Jeremiah. Get hold of a copy if you have not already done so and spend time reading and meditating on God's word.

Today we meditate on Jeremiah 4 - "defaulting on repentance." We want a revival. We need a revival. The Salvation Army desperately needs it. We must begin with repentance. Prayer without repentance will not bring revival.

This week in London, the International Leaders' Conference is in session and we need to pray for General Shaw Clifton and our Army leaders. The theme is "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever." Our territorial leaders, Colonels Keith and Beryl Burridge are at the conference and we must remember them in our prayers.
