I love that prayer!

Last week, I sent an email out to about 50 friends (including our pastor who is a devout/Bible preaching Christian) and asked them to pray for this type of preaching from the pulpits again. I don’t think we’ll see revival until people see their need to repent, and those who warm the pews on Sunday mornings looking for another cozy sermon on “relationships” start hearing again about what God sees as sin and the consequences of sin, in this life and the next! Our culture has become so filthy and dirty that people don’t even know what sin is (oh, they know deep down in their hearts, but it is so covered over and approved of by the outside pop culture that they can make themselves forget.)

God is gracious and merciful but only when we are truly repentant, and I don’t think the church as a whole has been, other than a pretty small part of it. (as mentioned above 29% of so called evangelicals voting for this man - they cannot see the truth because they are living Satan’s lies every day!)

Pray for revival, and pray for pastors to start preaching the hard truths again, BOLDLY, along with God’s mercy and grace, and pray for people’s hearts to be softened so they will hear and repent, and not just get more stubborn and rebellious! Maybe God will use the hard economic times that are in store for us to soften people’s hearts.

"people don’t even know what sin is."

The most politically incorrect word in the English language is not of four letters. It has nothing to do with one's gender or skin color. It is "sin."

Watch what happens if you even utter it in the presence of a God-hater.
