Suggestions to Help You Pray for our Revival Service
First, make sure you are ready to pray. Get your heart right with others and God beforehand. Be sure to start on time and pray through your time. You might start a minute or two early and pray a minute or two extra. Pray in faith. Believe God is hearing you and that He will answer you. (Hebrews 11:6, Mark 11:24) Pray for our music leaders. Pray for things to go well logistically. Pray that God will bring people in for the service. Pray that many lost souls will be saved and that many Christians will be greatly renewed. Pray by name for people you want to be saved and pray for Christians who need to get right. Pray for God to greatly move in our church as a whole.
