Habakkuk 3:2 “O LORD, I have heard thy speech, and was afraid: O LORD, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.”
Of a truth we are in the last days and there are lots of prophecies about the end time that is already coming to pass in the World, unfortunately, these signs are also affecting the church negatively, one of the end times signs is that the love of many shall wax cold and sadly many are already caught up in the web of bitterness, anger, strife, envy, and jealousy thereby making their love for Christ and the people of the kingdom wax cold (Matthew 24:12).
These prophecies were given so we could watch and be at alert against the works of the devil in the last days, but unfortunately even Christians are part of the people fulfilling these prophecies.
Not only has our love for one another grown cold, but we have also abandoned our first love thereby seeking after the temporary pleasures of this world, prosperity, fame and recognition has now become our new targets rather than seeking after righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost(Matthew 6:33, Romans 14:17), God has clearly stated in His Word that we must not keep our focus on the things of this World rather we must seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and every other thing shall be added unto us.
More saddening is the fact that while we Christians are focused on the pleasures of this World, many souls whom God has assigned us to bring unto salvation are now perishing for how will they hear the message of the kingdom if we the Christians do not take the gospel to them? How then can they be saved if the gospel is not preached unto them? Many intercessors have lost the burden of interceding for souls, many pastors have been frustrated out of their divine assignment by members who seem to be bent on making ministry impossible for them, yet our nation is greatly suffering as a result of our spiritual slumber and carelessness, souls are perishing, and the enemies of our faith are out there pushing their agenda with countless meetings and reforms.
What is the way out for the church? REVIVAL is! We must cry out to God for revival but just before then, we must all repent of our sins and seek the face of God for His mercy, His Word assures us that if we shall humble ourselves and turn from our old ways, He God shall hear us and heal our land (2 Chronicles 7:14-16).
Revival is needed for us to return back to our first love, we need revival for the fire for evangelism to be reignited in us, we need revival to overcome the works of the flesh, we need revival in our prayer and study life, to truly fulfil the great mandate Christ gave to us, we need Revival. If you completely agree with me let’s proceed to the 30 revival prayers
