I Need Revival When...

September 22, 2014

• The presence of God is not real and I’m not experiencing Him.
• The things of God do not thrill my heart.
• Christ and His kingdom are not my first priority.
• The presence of people who are walking with Christ bothers me.

• I feel overwhelmed by life and am not resting in God’s daily leadership.
• I have lost the simplicity and purity of devotion to Jesus Christ.
• I realize that it has been a long time since I have been overwhelmingly in love with Jesus.
