I haven't posted here in a long time. I am serving as a pastor in Canada and God has been at work in our church lately in particular. Some of the people are beginning to hunger for revival... but I would like to ask for your prayers for tomorrow (Sunday).God has laid a burden on my heart that I believe He is going to use powerfully tomorrow. Would you please pray for me and for this church. Pray that God would use me in spite of me; pray that eyes and hearts and minds would be opened to the unsearchable riches that are in Christ; pray that I would be able to draw attention to Him that I as I present this message would be forgotten and Christ would receive all glory; pray that lives would be FOREVER changed tomorrow morning 11:00 am (EST). Thank you. May God bless you. I trust I shall be able to report back shortly. Steve
I will be praying.

Thank you. I will be praying for you Steve and for the service tomorrow. If God answers this prayer, the service should be very special, and why wouldn't He answer it, because this is what the Holy Spirit is wanting to do in the Church, to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ.

Father, I thank You from the depths of my being for beginning to arouse this assembly with a desire for more of You.Grant, I pray a great anointing on your servant tomorrow as he brings the message that You have laid on his heart. Use it to bring about an eternal good, for your name's sake, in the lives of those that will be gathered. Be Thou exalted and magnified.May your Spirit begin to be poured out upon them in quickening, convicting, deepening power. Begin to give them eyes to see as you see; to be burdened with the things that burden your heart; to love what You love and hate what you hate.All for You glory. Amen
I am praying that you will hear His voice and be obedient!!!"Revive us O Lord that we may reopice in you."
Lord, give us eyes to see and ears to hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. Break up the fallow ground by your spirit. May we hunger and thirst after righteousness that we may be filled.Father, we pray that you will rend the heavens and come down...as you did in the Temple of Solomon...let the Glory of the Lord return and fill our temples. May you be glorified in all the earth.Revive those who have fallen asleep...make yourself known...May your Spirit come and fill the house of the Lord...fill your people with yourself. We ask that you move in power...confirming your word with signs and wonders. May it be noised abroad that the Lord has visited His people.Amen
Thank you Father that your Body is this little place is waking up to their dispirit need and that your Holy Spirit has gone ahead and prepared hearts and minds. Bring your children hungry and thirsting for you. Revive a fervent spirit, particularly in your men there Lord, for the unsearchable riches in Christ. We are agreed in this Father, with you and one another.Give your poor servant and open door, trembling only with the knowledge he speaks in your presence alone and under your authority. Cause him to take no notice of human response, filled with contentment and release that he heard the sword you called for and brought it for you to wield. You trim the lamps and supply the oil and your light dispels darkness and every imp flees. Have your way Lord. We give you all the Glory.
I want to thank you all for your prayers. God was present in power on Sunday and I was assisted more than usual. I continue to pray that I will see the fruit... and I pray that what has been sown in tears I will one day reap with joy. Keep your eyes on Canada - revival is coming!! God bless you. Steve
