“For where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them.”—Matthew 18:20
Topics to pray over:
- That the American Church continues to wake up to revival and the spreading of the gospel to the world today
- That the people of Louisville will be comforted in this time of need.
Prayer of agreement:
Heavenly Father, You’ve been stirring something mighty in the American Church today: revival! We pray for Your continued work among Your people, that the gospel will be spread boldly and without hindrance. We pray that the Church stands out in modern culture—offering solutions the world can’t produce: true love, peace, righteousness and eternal joy. Let Your face shine, that America may be saved!
And, Lord, in regard to the recent shooting in Louisville, we agree with the prayer Dutch Sheets prayed last Tuesday night:
“Father, we bring the city of Louisville and the family members and friends to You. You are a very present help in time of trouble. Holy Spirit, You call Yourself a comforter; it’s one of the things You love to do. We ask for Your comfort even in this time of grief, Lord. We ask for You to do what only You can do, working things together for good. We ask You to bring even salvation from this somehow. Lord, take that which is so evil and work Your good into it in whatever way and in every way You can. We speak comfort, we speak grace, we speak Your healing virtue to the emotions. We break the spirit of fear and trauma that would try to embed itself into hearts and emotions there. Just go to that city with a great wave of Your power, Your love, even revival. Turn the tables on the enemy, Lord. Turn the tables on him—on this wicked, wicked action of the enemy. And we ask for this in Jesus’ Name. Amen!”
