Get On Your Knees, Get Praying and Turn Your Life Around
In yesterday’s message: https://youtu.be/cYExAK5WQog ...I listed 9 things that the bible explicitly invites us to pray for: Forgiveness / anxiety / wisdom / your enemies / healing / miracles / revival / The Holy Spirit / EVERYTHING ELSE!
So from that list, I asked God, what is one thing that I should bring to our team today and invite them to focus on praying about over this next week….REVIVAL…
There are 3 key verses that we can meditate on ‘IN PRAYER’ over the next week, that will help keep us focused as we pray.
1. Mark 11:24 TPT This is the reason I urge you to boldly believe for whatever you ask for in prayer—be convinced that you have received it and it will be yours.
DON’T PRAY PIDDLY PRAYERS (PATHETIC, TRIVIAL, TRIFLING)
BE BOLD - Revival prayers have, historically always been imbued with BOLD BELIEF…due to the fact that many (if not all) of the recorded revivals in history were born from a season of deep desperation among the people of God AND the wider community. Desperate people pray BOLD prayers!
2. Matthew 9:38 MSG What a huge harvest!” he said to his disciples. “How few workers! On your knees and pray for harvest hands!
DON’T PRAY FOR WHAT ALREADY EXISTS!
What I love about this verse is that it reminds us that it is not our role to generate a harvest…the harvest already exists! This verse calls us to set our sails in prayer! To be READY, and for us to prepare as many others as possible for What GOD WILL DO, and for what ONLY GOD CAN DO.
The great Welsh revival at the turn of the 20th century was led primarily by Evan Roberts, whose first job at age 12 was as a coal miner in 1890…He prayed every day for revival for 13 years and in 1904 God turned up and revival broke out. https://www.samstorms.org/enjoying-god-blog/post/10-things-you-should-know-about-the-welsh-revival-of-1904-06
3. 2 Chronicles 7:14 MSG If I ever shut off the supply of rain from the skies or order the locusts to eat the crops or send a plague on my people, and my people, my God-defined people, respond by humbling themselves, praying, seeking my presence, and turning their backs on their wicked lives, I’ll be there ready for you: I’ll listen from heaven, forgive their sins, and restore their land to health. From now on I’m alert day and night to the prayers offered at this place.
DON’T PRAY FOR THE WORLD TO CHANGE! MAKE A CHANGE
How should we respond after a plague? How have you responded after the loss, grief and disruption of the last 2.5 years? How did you respond during the plague? Were you praying that God would, change the government, change the mandates, change the restrictions, change the rules…?
God calls us to respond by getting to our knees, getting into His presence, and living a Holy life… Maybe these 3 simple verses brought to God IN PRAYER could change the game, and bring revival to our land.
