Transcript for August 2010 Radio Spots:
Drastic Days; Desperate Prayers
August 1: Desperate Prayers for Gods Glory
In drastic days, we must pray desperate prayers. Some of the greatest prayers of the
Bible were prayed in drastic moments. And God responded powerfully! This is citywide
call to prayer. When Elijah confronted the prophets of Baal in a showdown on Mt.
Carmel, he prayed a simple but profound prayer. Elijah appealed to God to demonstrate His
power in the midst of those who mocked the true God. Elijahs great prayer in 1 Kings
18 was that God would prove He was the only true God. In that moment, fired flashed from
heaven, burned up the altar, and caused the people to fall on their faces before God. May
we also be passionate in our prayers for Gods glory to be known! Heavenly
Father, we live in drastic days. We pray that by Your Spirit, You will enable us to pray
great prayers. May You be known as the only true God. Please increase our faith to pray
great prayers for Your glory. In Jesus name, amen.
August 2: Desperate Prayers for Gods Favor
In drastic days, we must pray desperate prayers. Some of the greatest prayers of the Bible
were prayed in drastic moments. And God responded powerfully! This is citywide call to
prayer. Nehemiah recognized the destruction of Jerusalem as a drastic moment. Upon
seeing the broken down walls, Nehemiah wept, mourned, fasted, and prayed a desperate
prayer. He appealed to Gods promises. He repented of sin, and asked God to once
again deliver His people. God responded to Nehemiah by granting great favor. God gave
Nehemiah the strength and strategy to rebuild the walls in just 52 days! It is time for us
to also pray desperate prayers on behalf of our own cities. Dear Heavenly
Father, we know that our own cities are broken and devastated by sin. Please break our
hearts, that we might mourn and pray just as Nehemiah did. Please teach us to pray those
desperate prayers. As we pray, we invite You to bring healing and restoration to our
communities. In Jesus name, amen.
August 3: Desperate Prayers for Victory
In drastic days, we must pray desperate prayers. Some of the greatest prayers of the
Bible were prayed in drastic moments. And God responded powerfully! This is citywide
call to prayer. When Jehoshaphat realized that Gods people were surrounded by
deadly enemies, he was alarmed. He called the people to fast, and then prayed a very
desperate prayer before God. He honestly proclaimed that he did not know what to do, but
that his eyes were upon the Lord. In his prayer in 2 Chronicles 20, Jehoshaphat cried out
to God to save them, knowing there was no other hope. God responded by turning the enemies
armies upon each other and granting amazing victory. "Dear Heavenly Father, we
know the enemies of the gospel of Jesus Christ surround us. We call upon You, Oh God, to
give us amazing victory in proclaiming Your truths. We recognize that apart from You, it
is hopeless. We invite You to fight on our behalf! In Jesus name, amen.
August 4: Desperate Prayers for Courage
In drastic days, we must pray desperate prayers. Some of the greatest prayers of the Bible
were prayed in drastic moments. And God responded powerfully! This is citywide call to
prayer. The believers in the early Church were threatened to keep quiet about their
faith in Jesus Christ. But instead, their prayer in Acts 4 was a desperate prayer for
courage. They called upon God to send healing power and miraculous signs. They asked Him
to prove that they were His servants. Scripture says that God responded powerfully. The
building shook and they were filled with the Holy Spirit. We need that same kind of
Spirit-led boldness in the drastic days that we now face. "Heavenly Father, the
threats are growing to keep us silent about our faith in Christ. But we pray for greater
boldness to speak Your truths. Please fill us with the power of Your Holy Spirit, that we
might preach and pray with greater desperation for Your glory to be known. In Jesus
name, amen.
August 5: Desperate Prayers for Deliverance
In drastic days, we must pray desperate prayers. Some of the greatest prayers of the Bible
were prayed in drastic momentsand God responded powerfully! This is citywide
call to prayer. As Peter was held captive in prison, his friends prayed desperate
prayers. And God delivered Peter in dramatic fashion! An angel of the Lord was dispatched
to Peters prison cell. The angel woke Peter up, and his chains simply fell off. The
angel then led Peter out of the locked cell. Peter was delivered to the door of his
friends, surprising them while they prayed. In the midst of drastic days, God answered
desperate prayers. Heavenly Father, we are so encouraged by the dramatic story
of Peters release from prison. We thank You for Your constant watch over us. We pray
that You will protect us and deliver us from evil in these drastic days. We pray for Your
glory to be known in our midst, that we might pray with even greater faith. In Jesus
name, amen.
Prayer Preparation for Revival
August 6: Wait on the Lord
It has been said that when God is about to move powerfully, He sets His people to praying.
Our prayers are the preparation for the coming revival. This is citywide call to
prayer. Just before the birth of the early church, God set His people to praying.
Before Jesus ascended into heaven, He told His disciples to wait for the Holy Spirit. They
obeyed the Lord by praying and waiting for several days. Suddenly the Holy Spirit came
like a roaring wind and a flaming presence. The disciples were filled with power from on
high and the early church was birthed. Their prayers had prepared the way. Heavenly
Father, teach us to once again pray and wait on You for the fire of Your presence. Just as
the early church was birthed in prayer, we desire a fresh move of Your Holy Spirit. Please
set us to praying again, that we might once again see a fresh revival of Your Church. In
Jesus name, amen.
August 7: Wait Just Long Enough
It has been said that when God is about to move powerfully, He sets His people to praying.
Our prayers are the preparation for the coming revival. This is citywide call to
prayer. Jesus told the disciples wait for the Holy Spirit to come. And so the
disciples gathered to wait and pray. And wait and pray. In fact, they prayed for several
days without any evidence of answered prayer. But then suddenly the Holy Spirit came
rushing in and filled them with power! What if the disciples had given up a day earlier?
Thankfully, the disciples waited and prayed just long enoughand the early Church was
birthed from their prayers. Heavenly Father, we pray for the courage and faith
to wait just long enough for You to move powerfully in our midst. Help us to pray
faithfully until You send revival. May we not give up until Your Spirit is poured out
powerfully in our midst and Your people are revived. In Jesus name, amen.
August 8: Waiting for Power
It has been said that when God is about to move powerfully, He sets His people to
praying. Our prayers are the preparation for the coming revival. This is citywide call
to prayer. The disciples waited and prayed for days for the outpouring of the Holy
Spirit. But what if the disciples had grown tired of sitting in a crowded room, praying
for the unknown? Imagine if they had decided to embark on ministry a day
earlierbefore the Holy Spirit gave them power? Their ministry would have been weak
and fruitless. Certainly they would not have set the stage for the gospel to go to the
ends of the earth! Heavenly Father, we pray for Your Holy Spirit to give us the
power to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ. May we not do it in our own strength. May we
instead be clothed with Your power from on high. Help us to pray faithfully to be filled
with Your Holy Spirit. In Jesus name, amen.
August 9: Dont Give Up
It has been said that when God is about to move powerfully, He sets His people to praying.
Our prayers are the preparation for the coming revival. This is citywide call to
prayer. In a small church in the Hebrides Islands, the weekly prayer meeting had
dwindled to just a few people. It was harvest time, and so most people kept working in the
fields. The elder in charge decided to shut the prayer meeting down until after harvest.
But each week, the Lord prevented him from cancelling the prayer time. Then suddenly, in
the midst of just a handful of a faithful few, God sent revival! Heavenly
Father, at times it is discouraging when so few people are praying. We even wonder if we
should just give up for a season. But You are willing to pour out Your Spirit because of
the prayers of just a few. Please renew our hope to never give up. Help us to pray until
You send revival. In Jesus name, amen.
August 10: Taking on a Prayer Burden
It has been said that when God is about to move powerfully, He sets His people to praying.
Our prayers are the preparation for the coming revival. This is citywide call to
prayer. The leaders in a Presbyterian church in the Hebrides Islands gathered to
discuss the appalling spiritual condition of their church and community. They had reached
a hopeless place. Only a move of God could change things. So they began to pray. The
leaders covenanted with God to take on the prayer burden of revival. They would not stop
praying until God sent the fire of His presence. Their prayer preparation led the way to
revival. Heavenly Father, please show us the true condition of our churches and
communities. We pray for Your Spirit to burden us to pray for revival until You send it.
Help us to stand in the gap and not give up praying until we experience the fire of Your
holy presence in our churches and nation. In Jesus name, amen.
August 11: Awakened to Our Need
It has been said that when God is about to move powerfully, He sets His people to praying.
Our prayers are the preparation for the coming revival. This is citywide call to
prayer. Unless God awakens us to our true spiritual condition, we will not experience
a burden to pray for revival. Unless we understand our desperate need for the fire of
Gods presence, we will not travail and prevail in prayer. However, when that
awakening comes, it is a sovereign and gracious act of God. He will open our eyes to our
desperate condition. He will fill us with the power of His Spirit to intercede beyond our
own human resolve. Heavenly Father, please remove the veil from our eyes and
show us how desperately we need revival in our churches and nation. Let our hearts break
as Your heart breaks over our sinful condition. May we seek You with repentant hearts, and
be moved by Your Spirit with extraordinary prayers for revival. In Jesus name,
amen.
August 12: Our Desperate Need
It has been said that when God is about to move powerfully, He sets His people to praying.
Our prayers are the preparation for the coming revival. This is citywide call to prayer.
We are in desperate need for a spiritual awakening in our nation. If we ask in faith, God
will place a burden on our hearts to pray with prevailing prayer. Are you willing to take
on a burden for revival? Are you willing to cry out for perhaps the most powerful revival
that our nation has ever known? Heavenly Father, we know that prayer is the key
in preparation for revival. But we are weak in our prayers, often giving up too soon.
Please fill us with the ability to be bold and full of faith to take on the burden for
revival for our churches and nation. We pray that You will provide us with the strength
and vision to pray long enough for You to send revival! In Jesus name, amen.
Why Do We Want Revival?
August 13: Why Revival?
It is becoming a commonly heard crythe cry for revival in our nation. More people
are praying with greater hope for spiritual awakening. But why do we want revival? This
is citywide call to prayer. I recently spent time with a wise Christian leader who
has prayed for revival for years. But she posed a question that surprised me. She asked me
why I wanted revival. My first thought was, Doesnt everyone want
revival? But now I understand more of the answer to her question. I dont want
revivalGod does! And God is the One who has put it in my heart to pray for that
revival. Heavenly Father, we cannot come to You on our own, wanting revival for
our nation. You want revival more than we do. We pray that You will put an increasing
burden on our hearts to join You in desiring revival for our nation. Help us to pray with
Your heart. In Jesus name, amen.
August 14: Revival Belongs to God
It is becoming a commonly heard crythe cry for revival in our nation. More people
are praying with greater hope for spiritual awakening. But why do we want revival? This
is citywide call to prayer. Many leaders are challenging us to pray for revival. It
is encouraging that Gods people are waking up to our desperate need. But where did
the desire for revival start? It did not start with any great speaker or prayer leader.
Revival is Gods idea. It belongs to Him alone. Without God, there is no work of
revival. He authored it, and He is ushering it in by giving us the heart and prayers to
pursue Him in revival. Heavenly Father, we praise You that revival is on Your
heart. We thank You for including us in Your divine purposes to bring a great spiritual
awakening to our nation. Thank You for authoring this movement of prayer for revival. May
we pray with faith and belief in You alone! In Jesus name, amen.
August 15: The Reason for Revival
It is becoming a commonly heard crythe cry for revival in our nation. More people
are praying with greater hope for spiritual awakening. But why do we want revival? This is
citywide call to prayer. There is really only one true reason to pray for revival. It is
not for our sakes; it is for the glory of God alone. The most compelling reason to seek
God fervently for revival is that His name will be honored and His glory manifested
throughout our land. If you can agree with that, then join me in praying for revival and
spiritual awakening in our nation! Heavenly Father, our greatest heart-cry is
that Your name will be famous and revered throughout our land. Oh, that You might send a
revival that showcases Your glorious reign in all things. We pray for a spiritual
awakening that will exalt Your holy name above all names. We pray that through revival,
all will acknowledge You as Savior and Lord. Come, Lord Jesus. In Your name, amen.
August 16: Gods Presence Distinguishes Us
It is becoming a commonly heard crythe cry for revival in our nation. More people
are praying with greater hope for spiritual awakening. But why do we want revival?
This is citywide call to prayer. Moses prayed a very powerful prayer when he pleaded
for Gods presence to go with the Israelites. Moses understood that without the fire
of Gods presence, there was nothing to distinguish Gods people. It is the same
with revival. Without the fire of Gods presence in revival, the Church will not look
dramatically different from society. But with Gods presence fully manifest in our
midst, we will reflect Gods glory to a lost world. Heavenly Father, may we
be a distinguished people because Your manifest presence is magnified in us. We pray for
the revival fire of Your presence to fall upon Your people. Let Your Church be glorious
and exalting of Your holy name. We do not want to live without Your glorious presence in
our midst. In Jesus name, amen.
August 17: Revival Restrains Gods Righteous Anger
It is becoming a commonly heard crythe cry for revival in our nation. More people
are praying with greater hope for spiritual awakening. But why do we want revival? This is
citywide call to prayer. There are many reasons for desiring revival. David gives an
important reason in Psalm 85 when he appeals to God to revive His people and prolong His
righteous anger. In revival, Gods people are called to repentance and holiness. The
unsaved are convicted by the Holy Spirit toward salvation. Gods wrath is held back
by the humble and repentant hearts of revived people. Heavenly Father, thank You
for the hope of revival that turns away Your wrath. We pray for the convicting power of
Your Holy Spirit to be poured out upon Your people, that we might repent and be revived.
Please bring glory to Yourself by redeeming the lost through salvation in Christ. May Your
righteous anger be satisfied as we return to You in great joy. In Jesus name,
amen.
August 18: Revival Restores Awareness of God
It is becoming a commonly heard crythe cry for revival in our nation. More
people are praying with greater hope for spiritual awakening. But why do we want revival? This
is citywide call to prayer. When true revival is sent from heaven, an entire
community will be saturated with the presence of a holy God. When God breaks through,
nothing else matters except the glory of Christ. People will be convicted of sin, and then
healed and restored in the love of Christ. A holy awareness of God will permeate
everythingand God will get all the glory! Heavenly Father, we pray for
revival for the sake of Your name. We invite You to come in Your manifest presence and
saturate our communities. With repentant hearts, we plead with You to overwhelm us with a
renewed awareness of Your holiness. Send fire from heaven that convicts of sin and
purifies our hearts. Restore to us a deep awareness of Your majesty and glory. In
Jesus name, amen.
August 19: Revival Reveals Gods Graciousness
It is becoming a commonly heard crythe cry for revival in our nation. More
people are praying with greater hope for spiritual awakening. But why do we want revival?
This is citywide call to prayer. God is a gracious and loving God, and these attributes
are best displayed through a revival that saturates churches and overwhelms a nation. In
revival, Gods gracious hand of mercy is revealed as He sends His convicting, healing
and restoring power. When people repent and return to the Lord, they experience Gods
glorious activity in their lives. Revival displays Gods finest work in His people! "Dear
Heavenly Father, we so desire revival because it reveals all Your magnificent attributes.
In revival, we experience Your mercy and kindness as You convict us of sin and restore us
to Yourself. We pray for the fire of Your glorious presence to be poured out in our midst,
that we might know the fullness of Your love and mercy. In Jesus name, amen.
Revival Is Supernatural
August 20: Wrestling with God
Revival is a supernatural work of God. As we pray for revival, we are inviting God to do
something extraordinary that cannot be explained in human terms. This is citywide call to
prayer. It was a bold prayer from a young man who was desperate for the fire of Gods
presence to fall in the Hebrides Islands. He reminded God of His promise to pour His
Spirit upon those who were thirsty for Him. He declared Gods honor to be at stake.
Suddenly the house literally shook with Gods supernatural response. There was no
question that God was pleased to answer his bold prayer and send revival! "Dear
Heavenly Father, this man took You at Your word and prayed with an unusual boldness. You
delighted to honor his humble and courageous heart. When our hearts are repentant before
You, You inspire us to pray with boldness for revival. We pray for another supernatural
work of revival in our day, Oh Lord. Please hear our cries. In Jesus name,
amen."
August 21: Tangible Evidences of Revival
Revival is a supernatural work of God. As we pray for revival, we are inviting God to do
something extraordinary that cannot be explained in human terms. This is citywide call
to prayer. When a young man in the Hebrides rose to his feel to pray a very bold
prayer for revival, God responded supernaturally. The house shook with Gods tangible
presence, and the revival spread throughout the community. The local bar was emptied
within 48 hours as all the patrons were convicted of sin. And within 48 hours, nearly
every young person up to age 20 had surrendered their lives to Jesus Christ. When revival
comes, it will clearly be a supernatural work of God. "Dear Heavenly Father, we
pray for a revival that will demonstrate Your supernatural power. We pray for an
outpouring of Your Holy Spirit that will convict us of sin and transform our hearts. We
pray that this supernatural work of Your Spirit will saturate our communities and bring
glory to You alone. In Jesus name, amen.
August 22: Revival is a Divine Moment
Revival is a supernatural work of God. As we pray for revival, we are inviting God to do
something extraordinary that cannot be explained in human terms. This is citywide call
to prayer. Nancy Leigh DeMoss, a leader in todays prayer movement, describes
revival as a divine moment when there is a supernatural outpouring of Gods Spirit on
His people. True revival cannot be manufactured or manipulated by man. God sends it
wherever He wills. But when revival comes, there will be no question that God has
responded to the cries of His people. If it is true revival, everyone will know that a
divine moment has come. Dear Heavenly Father, we long for a supernatural and
divine moment of revival. We seek You with repentant hearts, knowing that we can do
nothing apart from humbling ourselves and crying out to You in desperation. We ask You to
move supernaturally upon us by Your Spirit, allowing us to have a miraculous
transformation of heart. In Jesus name, amen.
August 23: Revival is Far-Reaching
Revival is a supernatural work of God. As we pray for revival, we are inviting God to do
something extraordinary that cannot be explained in human terms. This is citywide call
to prayer. Although every revival may look different, one thing is certain. True
revival will include a clear indicator that God has moved supernaturally in the hearts of
people. True revival will be evidenced by an extraordinary move of God. It is said that in
certain parts of the Hebrides Islands, the conviction of sin was so far-reaching that not
a home, family, or individual was untouched as genuine repentance swept through the
people. Dear Heavenly Father, we desire a revival that will sweep supernaturally
through our communities. We pray for a move of repentance that touches every individual,
home, and church. Our hearts desire is that no one will escape Gods presence,
the conviction of sin, and your healing and forgiveness. We pray that You will be honored
and glorified. In Jesus name, amen.
August 24: Man Gets No Credit
Revival is a supernatural work of God. As we pray for revival, we are inviting God to do
something extraordinary that cannot be explained in human terms. This is citywide call
to prayer. True revival is something only God can do. Revival cannot be attributed to
any well-known speaker or ministry. In the Hebrides revival in the 1950s, Duncan Campbell
was called to preach. Some began to credit him with the revival, which grieved him deeply.
In fact, Campbell characterized revival as a move of God that doesnt need a word to
be spoken by any man. If a revival is truly of God, no one will receive the glory except
God Himself. Dear Heavenly Father, we repent of the times that we call
mans work revival and then try to take the glory and credit for ourselves. We pray
for a revival that is clearly Your supernatural work in our midst. We want You alone, Oh
God, to receive all the glory. In Jesus name, amen.
August 25: No Need to Exaggerate Revival
Revival is a supernatural work of God. As we pray for revival, we are inviting God to do
something extraordinary that cannot be explained in human terms. This is citywide call to
prayer. When God moves in true revival, He will not need our help to promote it. When He
moves supernaturally in true spiritual awakening, there will be no need to exaggerate His
work. We will know with certainty when revival has come! Even unbelievers will know that
something truly spectacular has occurred. Not everyone will choose to repent. But neither
will anyone be able to deny the transformational nature of Gods outpouring of His
Spirit. True revival will be unmistakable. Dear Heavenly Father, we long for a
supernatural movement of Your Holy Spirit in revival. We pray that when You move, there
will be no denying Your revival power. We pray that even the lost will be amazed at Your
power and glory. May all come to repentance through Your move of revival. In Jesus
name, amen.
August 26: Overwhelming Joy
Revival is a supernatural work of God. As we pray for revival, we are inviting God to do
something extraordinary that cannot be explained in human terms. This is citywide call
to prayer. When revival swept through the Hebrides Islands, it was accompanied by a
profound joy. When people truly repented and embraced faith in Jesus Christ, they were
cleansed and restored to new life. Their joy could not be contained. Many new worship
songs were written during this time, and the people found themselves singing continuously.
It was not uncommon to hear people singing joyfully in the stores and on the streets. True
revival is characterized by overwhelming joy. Dear Heavenly Father, we thank You
that true repentance brings refreshing. We pray for a supernatural move of revival that
will fill our hearts with joy and our communities with praise. We pray for an
extraordinary work of cleansing and healing in our lives, resulting in resounding worship
of You. In Jesus name, amen.
Revival: How Much Do You Want It?
August 27: Are You Willing to Change?
Revival is a sovereign work of God that transforms entire communities. God wants to do a
work of revival among us. But the question is, How much do we want revival? This
is citywide call to prayer. All throughout history there are exciting stories of
extraordinary revivals. God moves powerfully among His people and His presence transforms
even entire communities. Most believers hope for revival, but how many are actually
willing to pray for it? God sends revival in response to our repentance and heart-felt
prayers. Are you willing to change your life priorities and make yourself available to
pray for Gods purposes? Heavenly Father, we are such a busy and
pre-occupied people. We may want revival, but we lack the courage and desire to actually
pray with great sacrifice and passion. Please, Lord, fill us with the power of Your Spirit
to truly desire revival. Give us the prayers for revival that are on Your heart, that we
might pray them in agreement with You. In Jesus name, amen.
August 28: Taking Risks
Revival is a sovereign work of God that transforms entire communities. God wants to do a
work of revival among us. But the question is, How much do we want revival? This
is citywide call to prayer. If God is to move powerfully through us, it will require
us to take uncomfortable risks. Abraham had to leave his homeland at 76 years of age.
David had to leave the tending of sheep to lead a nation to war. The disciples had to
leave their fishing nets behind to follow Jesus. Gods plan for His people does not
include lives of comfort and ease. But Hes just waiting to pour out His Spirit if we
are willing to trust Him and follow Him. Heavenly Father, we want to pray with
great courage and sacrifice for revival to come to our communities and nation. Please fill
us with the boldness of Your Holy Spirit to pray with great faith and walk in obedience.
We want to take those risks that will honor You. In Jesus name, amen.
August 29: God Wants to Do It Again!
Revival is a sovereign work of God that transforms entire communities. God wants to do a
work of revival among us. But the question is, How much do we want revival? This
is citywide call to prayer. God wants to impart a vision and a passion to His people
to seek revival. It is Gods heart to send revivaland He wants to prepare us to
usher it in. Historically speaking, every revival was ushered in through prayer. God wants
to do it again! He is looking for people who will take Him at His Word and become the
catalysts for revival. He is searching for those who will change the course of their lives
in order to pray fervently for Him to pour out His Spirit in revival. Will you be someone
who takes on this prayer assignment from the Lord? "Heavenly Father, thank You
that revival is Your idea and it is what You want to do in our midst. Please put the
vision on our hearts and use our prayers to usher in revival. Help us change our lives to
honor Your Kingdom purposes. In Jesus name, amen."
August 30: Pauls Prayer for Revived People
Revival is a sovereign work of God that transforms entire communities. God wants to do a
work of revival among us. But the question is, How much do we want revival? This
is citywide call to prayer. In Colossians 1, the Apostle Paul prayed a very powerful
prayer for the revival of Gods people. This was not a prayer of wishful thinking.
Paul was asking God to do an amazing and reviving work in the lives of his fellow
believers. Paul desperately wanted revival, and we can join Paul in a similar prayer for
the Church today. Heavenly Father, we ask You to fill Your people with the
knowledge of Your will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. We pray that Your
people will live lives worthy of You, Lord, and pleasing to You in all ways. We pray that
as Your revived people, we will bear fruit in every good work and we will grow in the
knowledge of God. Oh, Lord, please send revival to Your Church. In Jesus name,
amen.
August 31: Pauls Prayer for Revived People
Revival is a sovereign work of God that transforms entire communities. God wants to do a
work of revival among us. But the question is, How much do we want revival? This
is citywide call to prayer. In Colossians 1, the Apostle Paul prayed a very powerful
prayer for the revival of Gods people. Paul desperately wanted the Church to reflect
the glory of Christ and walk in the fullness of Christs power. We can join Paul in a
similar prayer for the Church today. Dear Heavenly Father, we want to pray, as
Paul did, that You will strengthen Your people with all power according to Your glorious
might. Please give us great patience and endurance to seek You in all things. We thank You
that You allow us to share the inheritance of Your Kingdom. Thank You for rescuing us from
the dominion of darkness. As redeemed and revived people, may we reflect Your glory to the
entire world! In Jesus name, amen.
