God’s IF-THEN Statement

Any programmer would recognize 2 Chronicles 7:14 (WMB) as a simple If-Then statement: “IF my people who are called by my name will humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, THEN I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” 

God hasn’t healed our land as yet.  From this I deduce that God’s people haven’t done what God requires in His IF statement.  Yes, we’ve had lots of prayer meetings, but I suspect that for the most part we haven’t humbled ourselves, and I suspect that we also haven’t turned from our own wicked ways. What have we been binge watching? Do we really love our neighbors? Do we practice what we preach? Are we obeying the “greatest commandments” Jesus emphasized in Matthew 22:37-40? 

Many of us have been praying for revival for many years now.  What is God waiting for? Brothers and sisters--if you have already established a relationship with God, if you are already one of God’s people--then I suspect God is waiting on us.
