Abandoned Devotion:
Bringing Life to Dry Bones
1. Repentance: Hearts of Stone becoming Hearts of Flesh
Philippians 3:18-19 – “For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame – who set their mind on earthly things.”
• When we have repented of our own sins we are ready to repent on behalf of our generation and the Church in general. Confess and repent of the enthronement of self-worship, empire-building and entertainment in much of the Church today. (Rev. 3:17) Ask for a revival of a hunger for God alone.
2. Wholeheartedness: No Bone Left Without Sinews and Breath
Walking Worthy of the Lord
Read Colossians 1:10
In all that God has called us to do, we must seek to walk worthy of the Lord. Paul explains this phrase as seeking to fully please the Lord, being fruitful in every work, and increasing in the knowledge of God.
• Tell the Lord that the desire of your heart is to be fully pleasing to Him and to seek His face all of your days.
• Ask God to bring fruitfulness to every work that you do because fruitfulness only comes from Him. Also ask Him to increase your knowledge of Him, His character, His ways, His heart, and His thoughts.
Global Proclamation:
When Dry Bones Live, Then What?
1. Barriers to Seeing the Army Mobilized
Pride
• Pray for message bearers not to let their pride derail them into a huge fall. Pray for them to have discernment into their own hearts and accurately assess their spirituality.
• Ask God to humble these message bearers now, so that they will go to the field positioned in the spiritual realm to make a maximum impact in the kingdom.
2. Mobilizing the Army: Prayer for 21 Nations to be Mobilized
John 11:25 – “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.”
• Pray for these students to be constantly reminded Christ did not just die for them but rose that we all might have new life. Pray these students to surrender these new lives into Christ’s hands, ready to die if it means others might receive new life as well.
• Pray for multitudes of students to go out, that they would encourage one another all the more in their faith, that Christ is sufficient in His resurrection power in every circumstance.
3. Possessing Our Inheritance: Prayer for Adopted People Groups
“The joy of the Lord is your strength.” – Nehemiah 8:10
- Pray for joy to fill the hearts of believers. Ask the Lord to set them free from things that hinder true joy being released – depression, discouragement, fear, bondage. Pray that as these believers are set free that they would experience a joy that they have never known before bubbling up in their souls.
