Today I read: 2 Kings 2, Psalm 48, Daniel 6, and 2 Thessalonians 2.
Gospel Summary: Our spiritual strength is not our own, but is a result of the Holy Spirit working in us. When we trust in God's strength, we are immovable and even our greatest foes cannot destroy us. If it were not for the Holy Spirit we would have no strength against the forces of evil that come against us.
Prayer: O God, you are my strength and apart from your Holy Spirit in me I would be nothing. Keep me ever pleading like Elisha for a double portion of your Spirit. Spare me today from assuming that I have this power apart from you and keep me ever dependent on the constant filling of your Holy Spirit. Show me that with your Holy Spirit in me there is nothing I face you cannot bring me through. But please teach me that apart from your Spirit I have no chance against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Keep me constant in faith, knowing that I am weak without you, you are God without me, evil is stronger than me, but by the power of your Spirit in me I am invincible against all evil, because Jesus conquered my greatest enemy at the cross. In the strong name of Jesus I pray, amen.
LORD, bring revival to my heart.
Come down with quick’ning power.
LORD, give to me the strength I need
To carry on this very hour.
My heart is faint, my flesh is weak.
Come LORD Jesus. Send Thy Spirit.
LORD, restore the joy of Thy salvation unto me.
LORD, bring revival to the church,
For though professing be,
There are many here within our midst
Who still are strangers unto Thee.
They are bound in garments of the grave.
Call them forth from death to new life.
LORD, revive the dead among us, calling them by name.
LORD, bring revival to our land,
For on every side we see
Men and women woefully at ease,
Infected with a dread disease.
Pour forth Thy healing balm, O LORD.
May our zeal convict a nation.
Great Physician, may Thy Truth impart the remedy.
LORD, bring revival to the world.
Thou hast promised there would be
The elect of God in every tribe,
Who long to hear The Word from Thee.
White unto harvest are the fields.
Send Thy servants forth with power.
May Thy Spirit carry us into fields of ripened wheat.
Come down with quick’ning power.
