Revival: Praying through the “If:”

• If you are not saved, you are lost.
• If you do not pray, you have no power.
• If you are not meek, you are haughty.
• If you are not humble, you are proud.
• If you have no peace, you have no rest.
• If you have no rest, you have worries.
• If you have no joy, you get despondent.
• If you have no hope, you are discouraged.
• If you are not honest, you are deceitful.
• If you lose your temper, you commit sin.
• If you are not merciful, you are hard-hearted.
• If you have no forbearance, you lack patience.
• If you are discourteous, you are inconsiderate.
• If you use profanity, Satan has your tongue.
• If you have hate in your heart, you are a murderer.
• If you do not love the brethren, you do not love God.

And yes!

“If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” I John 1:8-9

“And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us.” I John 5:14

“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” I John 2:15

If we could just take care of the “ifs” in our lives; then, we could experience personal revival.
