“The Lord raised up judges who saved them out of the hands of these raiders” (Judges 2:16). “This man really is the Saviour of the world” (John 4:42). God
sends His servants to revive His people. God sent His Son to redeem His
people. Revival comes “by the Spirit of the Lord” (Judges 3:10).
Redemption comes through the Son of God, our Lord Jesus Christ. As we
look to God for both redemption and revival, we say, “In God, I trust, I
will not be afraid” (Psalm 56:4,11).
" ... Will you ... come and stand before Me in this house, which bears My Name, and say, We are safe" - safe to do all these detestable things? Has this house, which bears My Name become a den of robbers to you? But I have been watching! declares the Lord" (Jeremiah 7:8-11). “God demands a conversion of the mind and heart as the basis of peace and security (cf. Is 26:3), not the superstitious veneration of a stone building or a traditionally sacred site” ( R K Harrison , Jeremiah ).
