If/Then: Unleashing God's Power in Your Life

by Rusty George, Michael DeFazio

Throughout the Bible there are what we would call "If/Then" "If you do this, then God will do this." It was the way God established his relationship with his people in the Old Testament. They were already his people, but there was a way he wanted them to behave as his people so that his partnership would make the maximum impact in their lives and in the world. And the same is true today. God still has If/Then statements that, when we decide to apply them, we are more than just educated, more than just obedient-we live in participation with God's great plan for our lives and the world. This book is a journey through some of these If/Then statements that have the potential to unleash God's power in your life. Up till now, you may have been operating on your own strength or just expecting him to do everything for you, but this book will draw your attention to when God has said, "I've got this," and when he tells us, "This is all you need to do. If you do it, you'll discover my plan for your life. Simply by participating, you can unleash my promises in your life."

The Bible repeatedly declares God's love for all people and those of us who call ourselves followers of Christ happily claim this promise. But God wants to give us more.

Throughout the Bible, God reveals these if/then statements. In each of the statements God offers us an opportunity for more. He promises that If we do something, THEN He will respond in a wonderful way.

God wants so much more for us and provides us opportunities to get more from Him, but as the book says, "we need to participate."

Rusty and Michael have combined practical life application with deep and strong scripture knowledge. What a team they make!

Rusty George, the Lead Pastor at Real Life Church in Santa Clarita, CA teams up with Michael Defazio, Professor of New Testament and Hermeneutics at Ozark Christian College to create this incredible practical easy to read and use book about following God's guidance and getting the most out of the life He gives us.

IF you want to unleash God's power in your life, THEN you'll want to guidance and training provided in this book. It's been designed to be read over the course of 5 weeks for 4 days at a time. The topics are short, sweet and profound all at the same time. It could be read within a group or as an individual.

The topics covered include everything from surrendering our need to lead, to seeking God's wisdom, remaining focused even when it seems like He isn't responding, obeying Him, and even serving Him. The results of this kind of focused choice include salvation, revelation, productive possibilities, blessings, and more hope than we'd ever imagine.
