Everyone in the world has the desire to have a loving and caring father. However, in this fallen world, there are many children and adults who have never experienced a father’s love. I have deep compassion for those who are fatherless.
My prayer is that every hurting person (child or adult) will experience the priceless gift of God’s perfect love and rest in knowing how deeply compassionate is the heart of our FATHER IN HEAVEN.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank You for loving us with a perfect, fatherly love. I ask You to comfort every son and daughter who is hurting today and missing their earthly fathers. Draw close to them and let them know that You are the Father to the fatherless. Help those without a father to rest in Your presence and know that You will never leave them, nor forsake them. Help them look to You always as their provider, nurturer, and protector.
Reveal Your love to them and fill the void by sending a trustworthy man who can help guide and lead them through their lives. Let them walk with confidence and faith in Your ability to meet the longings of their hearts. I pray in Christ’s name. Amen.
Revival begins in humble hearts and spreads like fire. The power of God’s Spirit is spreading like wildfire throughout the earth as we are praying for the greatest Jesus movement of all time to awaken the hearts of countless people.
On this summer day, I can imagine God saying, “I am pouring My Spirit on those who are seeking Me with all of their hearts. I will anoint those who humble themselves completely.”
With all the turmoil in our world, prayer is more important now than any other time in history. I trust our Lord to make our communities stronger than ever as we pray passionately for spiritual awakening. I trust Christ to deliver the youth in our cities from violence, addictions, suicide, school shootings, gang activity, racism and all the epidemics that are destroying the lives of many souls.
God is on the move. This movement will gain momentum as we continue to pray.
Please join me in praying for more and more lives to be awakened, revived, and saved. Countless miracles will happen as we pray for the younger generation to be filled with the fire and power of the Holy Spirit.
With an expectation for even more to come, I want to share a few of the prayers that I have written through the past decade. I hope you will come into agreement with my prayers.
Beloved Jesus,
Thank You for what You are doing in my church and other churches around America. The atmosphere is changing in my church and I see that revival has begun. People are turning to You in their brokenness and it is a beautiful thing to watch. Jesus, pour Your Spirit onto my church and the other congregations in Atlanta. Let us be a forerunner in the reviving of America. Let the flames of Your Spirit consume our hearts. Let all the people who come to our churches sense Your presence and Your love. Make us a strong group of people, fully awakened by Your Spirit. Purify the hearts of Your people, Lord. Make us ready for Your return. Oh how I love You, Jesus. I pray in Your name. Amen.
Our Wonderful Jesus,
Thank You for Your marvelous love and for Your light that floods out all darkness. I praise You for what you are doing on this earth. I lift up the body of Christ to You today. I pray that each one who calls himself a Christian will truly submit his heart to You. I pray that each believer will be drawn to Your goodness and grace. I pray that Your Spirit will permeate the churches in this country. Lord, let Your light snuff out all the darkness that has tried to invade the church.
Jesus, we need true revival to come to every heart. Revive the hearts of Your people. Help the church stand strong and make a bold statement for the world to see. Let us be strong and mighty people who bring light to the world.
Jesus, our country needs You desperately. Come and rescue our cities with a great move of Your Spirit. Send Your anointing power like never before. Prepare the hearts of the people to receive the outpouring of Your Spirit. I’m waiting with great expectation for the work You are going to do. Thank You for Your perfect love and for rebuilding my city and my country. I love You, Jesus, with all my heart. I pray in Your name. Amen.
Our Amazing Jesus,
Thank You for Your unfailing love, for the way You continually pour out Your mercy and grace. Thank You for the way You gently show us the things in our hearts that are not good. Jesus, thank You for purifying our hearts, for removing every thing that hinders us from walking closely with You. Thank You for what You are doing in the body of Christ. Oh how beautiful it is! I feel it in my spirit: Revival is about to break out in a big way in the body of believers here in the Atlanta area. Keep pouring Your Spirit into the hearts of the people who are fully seeking You. I pray in Your name, Christ. Amen.
Jesus,
We (the body of Christ) want more of You. We want You to work in and through us in unimaginable ways. We want thousands upon thousands to be saved in our city due to the massive outpouring of Your Spirit. I am waiting for You with great expectation to do mighty things in the churches in my area. I have visions of people falling at Your feet, weeping in repentance, craving Your love, wanting more of You. Jesus, show the world who You are. Show them Your radical love. Speak to the hearts of all the people who call You, “Lord.” Let each of them come to know You deeply and intimately.
Raise us up to be the church You want for us to be. Jesus, make us ready for Your return, without a blemish or stain. Let us be a church who loves You fully and loves each other perfectly. Let each follower of You be so focused on You that they would not look to each other, but only to You. Let Your perfect unity and love rule in the hearts of all Your followers. I am ready to see You do great and marvelous things in my city. I love You, Jesus, with all my heart. I pray in Your name. Amen.
Jesus,
Thank You for being the greatest joy of life. Thank You for being the one who restores. Thank You for healing every hurt and making us whole. Thank You for speaking words of love and guidance into our hearts. You are the answer to all of life’s problems. I pray for every person who has not found life in You. Jesus, bring revival to this world. Ignite a fire in the young people of our cities and countries. May all the people who are hurting or lacking anything turn to You and find all that their souls are longing for. I trust You to bring change to this broken world. I pray in Your name, Christ. Amen.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank You for Your amazing grace and mercy. I ask You to fill our country with Your glory and let us be a bright light to a dark world. Let us live surrendered to You as men and women of God. Protect us from calamity and help our nation to thrive. I trust You to do great and mighty things in our country. Make us a strong nation and let America be a blessing to people all around the world.
I ask You to pour out Your Spirit in an unprecedented way in the days and months ahead. Pour out the latter rain and let it be a much greater glory than any other time in history. Let a spirit of unity fall upon the church to replace a spirit of dissension. Let the church walk in love toward each other and walk in authority all over the planet EARTH. Pour out Your Spirit upon Your sons and daughters and upon all flesh. Surround our leaders with a wall of Your Holy Spirit fire so that every weapon or curse formed against them will be burned up forever. Let all the leaders be filled with a greater measure of Your anointing power.
Let a great revival be powerfully ignited this week. Let signs, wonders, and miracles come forth like no man has ever seen before. Most important of all, let us prepare the way for the second coming of Christ and let Your kingdom come ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. I love You with all my heart andplace my hope in You alone. I pray in Christ’s name. Amen.
After years and years of praying for revival in the church, it’s truly amazing to watch it unfold. A great awakening is happening now and will soon shake the world like never before.
There are only a few things that break my heart as much as the wickedness of racism. It’s really unbelievable that anybody could treat someone horribly or kill them because of their skin color. My mind cannot comprehend this evil.
A week ago, one of the most horrid crimes took place on American soil. George Floyd’s life was taken from him violently—a precious soul was lost in the worst kind of hate crime. There are no words to express the deep compassion and empathy I feel for his family and for our nation that is mourning over this wicked crime.
Throughout the week, I’ve prayed and thought about how desperately our world needs love more than anything else. There is a song that has a perfect message for this time of turmoil. “What the World Needs Now is Love,” is the name of a song that was popular when I was growing up. I have vivid memories of singing this song at the top of my lungs as a little girl. It was one of my favorite songs then and it still is now.
I’ve been obsessed with God and HIS LOVE throughout my life. Love is truly what the world needs. God’s love is enough to conquer anything. Evil may be increasing on the earth, but love overpowers it all.
As we love one another as Christ loves us, we will see the world begin to change.
Only Christ can empower us to love the ones who mistreat us. As we spend time in prayer, Christ pours His love into our hearts, so that we can pour it out on others and make an impact while we’re passing through the earth.
Our generation is living in an unprecedented time of hatred. Many have turned away from God because they don’t know that His true nature is love. God is love. (1 John 4:8).
Christianity can be summed up in one word: LOVE.
One of the ways we can love our neighbor is to ask forgiveness for the sins of the past. It is very healing to acknowledge the excruciating pain that our African American brothers and sisters have experienced.
As I’ve been writing and contemplating the condition of our world, I wept many tears for the ones who have been victims of injustices. I’ve felt embarrassed for the horrid mistakes of our country’s forefathers. Slavery has tormented this nation. Precious people were dehumanized, shamed, humiliated, and demoralized by slavery. It was a terribly evil, inhuman act of hatred that no man or woman should ever have to endure. I am so sorry for what our nation tolerated by committing the horrible injustices of slavery and racism. I ask those who may be carrying the pain of racism and slavery, please forgive these terrible sins.
You are beautiful. You are loved. You are made in God’s image. As humans, we have the same blood flowing through our veins. We are one race—all created equal in God’s eyes.
Right now, my most desperate prayer is that we can move forward in the days ahead with a powerful strength we’ve never had before. May we truly walk as a united group of people, in a spirit of unity and wholeness.
Let’s continue to pray passionately for our nation and for all the nations of the world to grow in Christ’s love.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank You for loving us perfectly and not giving up on our nation. I ask you to comfort George Floyd’s family and bring an end to racism. I ask You to bring healing to every man and woman who has ever been a victim of racism. I ask You to give peace to the ones who are mourning the loss of loved ones due to hate crimes.
Please keep Your hand upon our country and help us to love each other as You love us. Bring unity and a spirit of brotherhood upon our land. Let love begin growing throughout every city in America. Let Your perfect love rule in the hearts of all Your children and let us be an example to those who do not know how to love yet. Let us all walk together in our diversities as one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Let all races be treated equally with respect and honor. Awaken countless souls with Your love and let the greatest spiritual awakening spread across our country and around the world. I trust You to bring forth a JESUS REVOLUTION in the midst of the turmoil and saves millions of souls in the days ahead. I pray in Christ’s name. Amen.
