I need help

[juan felipe]

hello, well this is for anyone who can read this and be able to help me, belong in a church of about 100 people and we're not having a good time, there are no major objections to 100%, there is zero interest in the members to participate or take positions, we must revive the church, perhaps one has experience and can give me some advice.

happy Saturday

perhaps one has experience and can give me some advice.

While it might not bring instantaneous changes, it has always helped me to spend a lot of my mind's effort in talking with God about what He would like me to do about a situation that I felt needed attention, and then waiting expectantly for an answer that I was convicted was His answer for my responsibility in seeing it take place. Sorry I can't offer more help.

"“And so I tell you, keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you." Luke 11:9 NLT

"You should keep asking each other, ‘What is the LORD’s answer?’ or ‘What is the LORD saying?’"

Jeremiah 23:36 NLT

God blesses!

Hi Juan Felipé,

If you start a Bible study class you will attract interested members, maybe fresh blood as well.

Let the group select the subject, then use the week to prepare.

After six days of study, you will be prepared to guide the class, along with others who have done their homework. Ideally everyone will have studied, and there will be a rich exchange of Bible research. If you are motivated, you can make copies of your study to hand out to the class. This can be as simple as a list of Bible verses.

One could choose any topic or word in the Bible:

Angels, tithe, repentance, forgiveness, etc.

At the end of the class, the group decides on a topic for the following week.

God has promised that His word will not return unto Him void.(Isaiah 55:11)

Only a small number may be interested, that's ok. It will grow if you water it; God supplies the increase.

If you can find a good Bible concordance such as Strong's Exhaustive Concordance, this will greatly help your study.

Bible studies can be held anywhere. Jesus said that where two or three are gathered together in His name, He is in their midst. (Matthew 18:20)

thanks for your advice, in the church have formed small study groups (meets a group of people in a home Bible study) in the group to which we belong in studying Daniel hope it serves to revive everyone and especially I hope that our leaders wake up. thank you very much for your advice

I heard a story about a dead church. The new pastor didn't know what to do to wake them up, so he got together with his elders and prayed. They promised to pray intensely, an hour every day for a month, that God would show them how to wake up their dead church members. On the very last day of their promised prayer vigil, God showed them a way to reach their community for Him, and today that church is alive, with active members.

I think that prayer like this is the answer.

Hi Juan Felipé, those who are awake are the real leaders, whatever their title.
