Church revival
Scripture for Reflection and Preparation
2 Thessalonians 1:11-12 “11 and in view of this, we always pray for you that our god will consider you worthy of His calling, and will, by His power, fulfill every desire for goodness and the work of faith, 12 so that the name of our lord Jesus will be glorified by you, and you by Him, according to the grace of our god and the lord Jesus Christ.”
Ephesians 1:17-19 “17 i pray that the god of our lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, would give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him.
18 i pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened so you may
know what is the hope of His calling, what are the glorious riches of His inheritance among the saints, 19 and what is the immeasurable greatness of His power to us who believe, according to the working of His vast strength.”
