Prayer: A Powerful Prayer For The Church today

This prayer is from the IFA: Intercessors For America I felt was right on so let's pray and agree and watch for God to move, starting with each one of us! 

Lord, I pray for Your Church, bought and purchased by Your precious blood of Jesus Christ.

We stand in the gap for this nation as intercessors, and, Lord, we also stand in the gap for Your church.

Forgive us, Lord, for all the division in the church. Forgive us for allowing ourselves to be distracted when we have work to do. Forgive us for trading the fear of the Lord for the fear of man. 

I pray for leaders in the church and Christians alike who have fallen away into progressive Christianity. Lord, I pray You open their eyes to see the truth in Your Word once again. Let it be light to their path, and truth that guides them daily. 

Lay Your axe to the roots of progressive Christianity, and expose it for what it truly is…apostate and an abandonment of truth that is harming your church. 

I pray in agreement with every Spirit-filled believer. If we have let our fire die down, set our hearts ablaze again. As I choose to walk in surrender and obedience, fill me afresh with Your Holy Spirit. Give me power to be a bold witness for Jesus. 

I reject the god of culture, I want the God of the Bible.

I don’t want religion, I want revival.

I don’t want to settle for a church show, I want the weighty shekinah glory. 

I reject the enemy. I want to see deliverance, signs, wonders, and miracles that glorify God.

I reject lukewarmness. I want total surrender to You.

I want to be like the early church, who turned the world upside down. Bring the church back to when it was all about Jesus, and nothing else.

In Jesus’ name, amen.

Also from Dani Cole, our "First Lady [pastor's wife....

And Lord God … forgive us for allowing the shedding of Your most innocent blood to 65 + millions of babies being aborted in our nation ! Forgive us if we believed the lies of the enemy, and aborted , forgive us if we voted for abortion … forgive us if we looked the other way and said “that’s not my problem “ … Lord , forgive us and help us to forgive ourselves and help us to do something now that can open the eyes of the blind concerning You and how to go forward and stop abortion … thank You Lord for always showing us mercy and forgiveness, no matter what our sin was !!!
