Rediscovering the Word

from The Truth Church

Reverend Lynch preaches that the key to revival is rediscovering and falling in love with the Word of God. He uses the biblical account of King Josiah to make his point. Josiah inherited a nation steeped in idolatry and moral decay from his grandfather Manasseh and his father Amon. Despite this heritage, Josiah chose to seek God and began a campaign to purge idolatry. During the cleansing of the temple, the high priest Hilkiah found the long-lost Book of the Law. When it was read to Josiah, he was deeply convicted, rent his clothes, and humbled himself before God. He gathered all the people to hear the Word, and they made a covenant to obey it. This led to the greatest Passover celebration since the days of Samuel. Reverend Lynch draws a parallel to contemporary America, which he describes as having rejected biblical absolutes and replaced them with idols of money, sex, and self. He argues that personal passion and effort are insufficient without the Word of God as a blueprint. The sermon calls each individual to dig up and rediscover the Word for themselves, to hide it in their hearts, and to let it transform their lives, which will in turn bring revival to the church and the nation.
