Abandoned Devotion:
Bringing Life to Dry Bones
1. Repentance: Hearts of Stone becoming Hearts of Flesh
Psalm 119:18 – “Open my eyes, that I may see wondrous things from Your law.”
• The Word of God grows dark and dry when we lose the hunger and thirst. Some go for days or weeks without getting meaningfully into the Word. Confess and repent of every lack of thirst for the Word and its neglect. Ask for a fresh hunger and thirst for the Word (Psalm 119:176).
2. Wholeheartedness: No Bone Left Without Sinews and Breath
Growing in Experiential Knowledge of Jesus’ Supremacy
Read Colossians 1:15-20
Jesus is not just one among many but the only way to the Father. All things were created by Him and it is only through Him that we can find our true fulfillment.
• Ask God to show you anew that all things begin and end with Jesus. Pray for the Lord to give you revelation on how this understanding will revolutionize your relationship with Christ.
• God was pleased that all the fullness dwells in Christ. Ask the Father to show you the fullness He intends in your spiritual walk.
Global Proclamation:
When Dry Bones Live, Then What?
1. Barriers to Seeing the Army Mobilized
Manipulation
• Pray that message bearers would resist others trying to manipulate them, their actions, and decisions. Ask God to help them recognize the manipulation as it is happening and have the Holy Spirit remind them of God’s call in the midst of it.
• Ask God to give them great strength to press into God and fulfill God’s call, regardless of the pressure they feel from others around them.
2. Mobilizing the Army: Prayer for 21 Nations to be Mobilized
2 Corinthians 12:9 – “And He said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”
• Pray for students across Brazil to embrace their weaknesses and count them as ways to see the power of Christ displayed for His glory. Ask God to give them abundant grace as they embrace these weaknesses that they may see Christ’s strength made perfect.
• Pray for the Lord to raise up a mighty wave of students who depend upon God’s grace as they are sent out to the nations to share God’s love.
3. Possessing Our Inheritance: Prayer for Adopted People Groups
“Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what H sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner.” – John 5:19
-Pray for message bearers to have discernment to see what the Father is doing among this people group and get involved. Ask the Lord to reveal His heart of what He is longing to do but does not have someone there to do His work.
