Go Beyond At Home
28-Week Prayer Guide
Revival
Our life-giving God is the author of all spiritual life. The Lord’s deepest desire for his children is to live in total and joyous dependence on Him. Even those who are born again and part of Christ’s family have the propensity to drift away from a close relationship with God and into indifference and lifeless lethargy because of our active rebellion or passive apathy. Revival starts with understanding our desperate need for God’s intervention in our personal lives, hearts, homes, relationships, church, and community. It starts when we cry out to God and ask Him to revive us.

“When they heard this, they raised their voices together to God (…) When they had prayed, the place where they were assembled was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak the word of God boldly.“
— Acts 4:24, 31
REMINDER: God calls us to rely not on our wisdom and strength but to direct our energy toward Jesus himself, Scripture reading, corporate worship full of God’s Word, and committed and anointed exposition of the gospel. We must pray for genuine intimacy with the Lord and seek wisdom in His truth daily. We can invite others into life-giving spiritual habits. Incorporating these practices will be emulated by brothers and sisters around us.
TODAY’S PRAYER:
– Thank God for the churches in our area, for their leadership and congregations.
– Invite the Lord to ignite a genuine desire to devote our time and resources to share Jesus.
– Pray for truth to be shared and the Gospel to be proclaimed boldly.
– Pray so the Lord brings a desire to seek Him more among His people.
