Pray For Conviction

Let’s pray that God will bring conviction on the world.  Let’s pray that He will send conviction back.  Religion has become so popular now that it is shown in theaters, sung over radio and in barn dances.  Just one more form of entertainment.  We fundamentals and evangelicals just will not believe the truth about ourselves and the kind of people we are.  So we have a popular religion but very little power because we have very little conviction, very little repentance and very little sorrow.
A.W. Tozer (sermon “Men Do Not Believe the Truth About Themselves,” John 8:38, General Council, as cited in Tozer on Worship and Entertainment, p.103)

    "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." Matthew 7:13-14

    I join you in praying for the many.
