How do we move Mountains?

      I.     Number 1:   Mountains are moved when God’s people  pray with  fervency

Statements of Truth:

                  1.      You are either fainting or praying so said Jesus

                  2.     God does not waste his Holy Spirit on prayerless people

                  3.     God will not birth revival until we labor in Prayer

     II.     Number 2:  Mountains are moved when God's people pray in faith

a.     In the New Testament the word “faith” is used with two meanings: objective faith and subjective faith.

                                          i.     Objective faith:  Faith that is pointing to an object that is greater than ourselves

                                         ii.     Subjective faith: Faith that is in Action
