"And He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation., that they would seek God, if perhaps they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us" (Acts 17:26–27 NASB). The realities of the time in which we live cannot be denied. In many nations of the world, the hope of a culture-transforming revival seems swallowed up in moral decline, stale religion, violence, and terrorism. We cannot avert the fulfillment of God's Word about the end times; however, the challenge and call of Great Commandment love must still drive us to a prayerful, relentless pursuit of the Great Commission. History confirms that increased spiritual fervor, which transcends denominational, racial, and gender barriers, will ultimately impact the social and political climate of any culture. God is not far from any of us, if we are willing to diligently seek Him, even if we feel as though we are groping in the darkness. PRAYER DIRECTIVES Acknowledge through praise and thanksgiving that the Lord of Hosts, Prince of Peace, and powerful Holy Spirit still deliver in time of trouble, for God has disarmed the principalities and powers of spiritual darkness, putting them to an open shame on the cross of Calvary (Psalm 91; Exodus 15:1–3; Colossians 2:13–15). Repent personally and corporately by expressing godly sorrow for our sin of embracing spiritual deception and all of the moral and cultural consequences resulting from the idolatry permeating our culture (Nehemiah 9:1–3; Daniel 9; Acts 3:19; 17:30). Petition God to grant His manifold wisdom for all who are in positions of authority and influence that they will be guided by truth and discernment; ask Him to remove the ungodly from positions of power, raising up the righteous, who will show grace and favor toward Jesus followers (1 Timothy 2:1–4; Ephesians 3:10). Believe and ask God to grant access for the Gospel to permeate and transform every sphere of culture (e.g., family, church, education, government, arts/entertainment, media, and the marketplace) through: Open heavens—to reveal the Gospel (Isaiah 45:8) Open minds—to hear the Gospel (Acts 26:17–18) Open hearts—to embrace the Gospel (2 Corinthians 4:6) Open doors—to spread the Gospel (Colossians 4:2–3) Surrender to the Holy Spirit by submitting yourself fully in new and fresh ways for Him to fulfill His purposes for your life as He positions people throughout the world to bring to completion His plan for the knowledge of His glory to fill the earth (Psalm 24:1; Habakkuk 2:14). "And He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation., that they would seek God, if perhaps they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us" (Acts 17:26–27 NASB).
