Prayer for Revival

Prayer for Revival

For your name’s sake, Lord, for your glory and honor, work amongst us to  bring revival: reveal Your holiness in such a way to bring us to our knees; show us our sinfulness enough to strike us to the ground; and then pour out the healing knowledge of how much You love and forgive us; finally, stand us again on our feet, transformed as Job was, humbled and broken, not trusting in ourselves, but trusting only in you, the great and mighty King, Creator of everything.

May our resulting worship be unbroken, deep, whole-hearted.  May our first love for you, our Bridegroom, well up continually, expressed every day by obedience in joy.  May You be glorified by our living lives worthy of You, “being filled with the knowledge of Your will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding…being fruitful in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all might…so we have great endurance and patience, joyfully giving thanks to You who have qualified us to be partakes of the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light.  For You have rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of Your son whom You love, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of our sins.” (Col 1:9-15)  Glory be to You in all I do today!
