prayer for revival among Church leadership





Scripture for Reflection and Preparation


Romans 15:5-6 “5 Now may the god of endurance and encouragement grant you agreement with one another, according to Christ Jesus, 6 so that you may glorify the god and Father of our lord Jesus Christ with a united mind and voice.”

Ephesians 3:14-21 “14 For this reason i bow my knees before the Father 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named. 16 i pray that He may grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 and that the Messiah may dwell
in your hearts through faith. i pray that you, being rooted and firmly established in love,
18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and width, height and depth, 19 and to
know the Messiah’s love that surpasses knowledge, so you may be filled with all the fullness of god. 20 Now to Him who is able to do above and beyond all that
we ask or think—according to the power that works in you—21 to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. amen.”
