TEN SPECIFIC PRAYERS FOR REVIVAL AND SPIRITUAL AWAKENING!!
(Copied from A Powerful Prayer Life G Frizzell)
genuine repentance among His people.
There will be no revival without these elements and
only God can produce them in His people. After all we cannot program or work up genuine
brokenness and repentance. (2 Corinthians 7:10)
2. Pray for deep cleansing, genuine repentance, and spiritual power to engulf pastors and
Christian leaders.
Revival and spiritual awakening are extremely unlikely without a mighty
move of God in pastors and Christian leaders. Renewed pastors are absolutely crucial to a move
of God in our day! (Ephesians 6:14-20)
3. Pray for God to bestow spiritual hunger in His people and draw them to fervent
intercession.
God has to grant people the genuine faith and the fervent desire for prayer. With all
our promotion and programming, we cannot “produce a genuine prayer movement. (Philippians
2:13)
4. Pray that God will bring loving unity in our churches and a deep harmony between our
churches.
Many churches need healing among members and many churches need to stop
competing jealously with other churches. (John 13:35)
5. Pray for God to fill His people with a passion to see people saved.
(Only God can give a
genuine burden for souls.) Until God’s people intensely pray for the lost and do aggressive soul
winning revival will tarry. Be sure you are constantly praying for many lost people by name.
(Romans 9:1-3)
6. Pray for God to give His people a passion for missions and starting churches.
Great revivals
produce an explosion of mission projects, new ministries and new church starts. Only God can
grant a genuine passion for missions. (Matthew 28:19)
7. Pray that God will call thousands into ministry, missions and Christian service.
Many
churches are dying for lack of soul winners, teachers and church workers. Furthermore, we can
start only as many churches as we have church planters to start them. (Matthew 9:37)
8. Pray that God will pour out His Spirit like a mighty purifying flood.
Ask God to purify our
“motives as we pray for revival. After all it is possible to pray for revival for selfish or ambitious
reasons. Our motives must be solely for: (a) the glory of God, and (b) the increase of the
kingdom of God. We must not pray for revival just to solve our own problems or make our
church successful in the eyes of men. (James 4:2)
9. Pray for a mighty move of conviction and salvation upon communities of cultural influence.
Some key examples are Hollywood actors and producers, government officials, educators,
teachers, and college professors, news and media people, talk shows hosts, comedians,
homosexual activists groups, and the music industry. (1 Timothy 2:1-2) Provide specific lists for
your congregation.
10. Specifically pray for God to pour out His Spirit in a fashion even greater than He did in
America in 1858 and Wales in 1904.
(Ten percent of Wales’ population was saved in five
months!) Ask God for a modern day of Pentecost in the United States and Canada. (Mark 11:22-
24; John 14:13-14.)
Let us so Pray!
