O LORD, I have heard the report of you, and your work, O LORD do I fear. In the midst of the years revive it; in the midst of the years make it know; in wrath remember mercy. (Habakkuk 3:2)

Prayer Points:

Ask for forgiveness for the sins that have brought about our need for judgment. Be specific as you remember your sins and the sins of your community.

Repent of every way you have failed to show God's mercy to those who need it most, whether it be through wrong actions or selfish apathy.

Ask Jesus to pour His mercy over your city today.

Ask Holy Spirit to guide you to find and do acts of mercy in your community today.

Commit to receiving and giving the mercy of Jesus today.

God's mercy is His goodness toward those in distress, His grace is His goodness toward those who deserve only punishment, and His patience is His goodness toward those who continue to sin over a period of time. - Wayne A. Grudem

Many Samaritans from that town believed in Him because of the woman's testimony. "He told me all that I ever did." So, when the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him to stay with them, and He stayed there two days. And many more believed because of His word. They said to the woman, "It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Savior of the world. " (John 4:39-42)

Prayer Points:

Repent for any and every way you have overlooked, judged, or ignored the lost in your community.

Ask Jesus to give you His perspective and His heart for what He wants to do though these dear ones.

Pray for groups in your city whom you have considered to be unlikely evangelists (the homeless, those of different religions, the very rich or the very poor). Ask Holy Spirit to draw them to Himself.

Pray for specific individuals in your sphere of influence who need to come to a saving knowledge of Jesus. Ask Holy Spirit to guide you as you pray for them.

Pray for ministries who are reaching out to specific groups (college ministers, ministries to immigrants, outreaches to the poor).

God sometimes uses very weak and unlikely instruments for beginning and carrying on a good work. Our Savior, by teaching one poor woman, spread knowledge to a whole town. - Matthew Henry

Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, "Brothers, what shall we do?" And Peter said to them, "Repent and be baptized every one of you in the Name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to Himself." And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, "Save yourselves from this crooked generation." So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls. (Acts 2:37-41)

Prayer Points:

Pray for churches and pastors (by name) to preach powerfully the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Ask God for specific believers to be mighty evangelists.

Seek God for a great awakening in your community.

If the Lord tarries and there is no revival of pure Christianity, then the next span of years will be the worst history has every recorded

O my God, incline Your ear and hear. Open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city that is called by Your Name. For we do not present our pleas before You because of our righteousness, but because of Your great mercy. O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive. O Lord, pay attention and act. Delay not, for Your own sake, O my God, because Your city and Your people are called by Your Name. (Daniel 9:18-19)

When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command the locust to devour the land, or send pestilence among My people, if My people who are called by My Name humble themselves, and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, Who Is the image of God. For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, Who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," has shown in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. (2 Corinthians 4:4-6)

Prayer Points:

Thank God that He is greater than all, including all the forces of the enemy.

Ask God to remove the spiritual blinders for specific people in your world.

Seek God for open doors to share the gospel, which has the power to deliver.

Intercede for believers to preach Christ, not ourselves.

Trust God that He will reveal His glory to the lost today.

I find myself praying more and more, Lord, fill our church with a passion to open the eyes of the blind. Fill us with a passion to do what God uses to bring about the new birth.

- John Piper
