City Transformation: Praying for Revival
- Pray for God to stir in our city a desire to relate with him
Over the last three or four centuries of church history, when God transforms many people across an entire city or region, we often call it a “revival”. In a sincere desire to experience revival, we sometimes schedule a series of meetings in a church or a tent. Revival, however, is something God does, not something we do. The essence of revival includes the following:
- A tangible and strong sense of God’s presence
- An increased awareness of our need for God
- An increase in people’s desire to have a relationship with God
- A widespread release of God’s power that brings healing, salvation, provision and other supernatural phenomena
- Clear and long-lasting transformation of many people’s lives
Let’s pray for God to visit our city and bring the transforming event that we call “revival.”
