Recently I was going through my journals and came across a prayer I had written about my dreams and desires that personal prayer would be revolutionized in our world today. Tonight I’m going to meet with a group of women at my church who are called the Flame Bearers Prayer Group. I’ve printed out the following prayer on stationary with angels on it and I’m going to ask them to join me in praying for a prayer movement to sweep our country. If you’d like to join us, use the following prayer in any way that God leads:Â
Would you join with me in praying that the
personal prayer lives of those near and far be
energized by God’s Holy Spirit?
Â
I pray that your Spirit would go and seek out the in-
dividual lives where prayer is lifeless, colorless and
tired and nothing but duty and ritual.  Â
Â
To find those whose prayers are held back by fear and
hopelessness, whose vision is clouded with doubt and
sorrow.Â
Â
To reach those who are already faithful in their prayers
that they might reach new levels of Grace and
spiritual growth through prayer.
Â
To reach those who know very little about prayer, who have
never known it’s possible to pray to a God who hears and cares
and can change their lives forever.
Â
To seek those going through crisis periods when they find it
hard to pray, and those who are having trouble praying because
they’re depressed and those who are so busy and focused on this
world that they forget to pray.
Â
I pray that Your Spirit will uncover all spiritually thirsty ground
so that personal prayer will be revolutionized in our world today
according to God’s plan.
Â
Let it be so. Amen.
