I often have people say to me, “Don, I just don’t believe we’re gonna have revival in America. These are the last days and I just don’t believe we’re gonna see revival.” While I certainly agree that these are the last days, I believe we should consider some other things before we just write off the possibility of a national awakening to God right here in America.
We should consider the widespread movement among college age adults. Over the last several years there have been thousands in that age group who are making commitments to Christ as the Master of every area of their lives.

Fort McHenry (where in 1812 a battle raged which inspired Francis Scott Key to write The Star Spangled Banner) was named after a man who served as a medical soldier in George Washington’s army, and later signed the U.S. Constitution. His name was James McHenry. While unknown to us today, James McHenry was one of those men who laid such a firm foundation for America that during the 1800s it would grow to become the greatest nation on earth.

I’m amazed at how many people think we can’t live by law anymore. They say by their actions, if not their words, “You don’t have to keep any law. I determine the law for myself.” In other words, there is nothing “set in”, which is what the word law means.
