30 Days of Prayer for Global Awakening
Bible Reading: Deuteronomy 4:5-9
Heavenly Father, please give lost families in our nation and all across the globe such a hunger for You they will seek You with all their hearts and find You together as one. Jeremiah 29:13. Call out Christian families to enter their lives, shining Your light so brightly in the darkness those who still don’t know You will resist You no longer. Draw every family into a church nearby them with loving members, sound teaching from Your Word, and a powerful demonstration of Your love and grace.
Wherever there is abuse, Father, please rescue that family. Provide the way of escape for the victims in each situation, and the abuser to repentance and salvation. Perform such a miraculous transformation in the abuser’s life that the whole family will believe in You and walk in Your paths as one.
Give Christian parents wisdom to train up our children to follow You all the days of their lives, walking out in Your Word, flowing in Your Holy Spirit’s leading, and changing the world with Your love. Use Christian families in each community to help the hurting, provide for the needy, and share with the lost. When we cry out to You, answer us, O God, in miraculous ways like only You can. Break us free from sin and strongholds, and walk us into oneness with You and with each other. Fill our homes with Your angels and Your presence, casting out the enemy and demolishing his every scheme against us.
Be a Shield around our families, protecting us and our children from harm. Do such marvelous things in our midst that our faith is built, and all those around us see Your miraculous provision and give in to Your unfailing love. Carry us through the hard times and give us peace. Guide us through difficult decisions.
Give Christian parents wisdom in every situation to know how to react according to what You are doing in each child’s heart and life. Set us free from our strongholds, and train us to also help our children to freedom. Break the chains of impatience, complaining, unforgiveness, pornography, unfaithfulness, anger, addiction, pride, selfishness, abuse, depression, anxiety, and every other stronghold the enemy has been using to trap our families in his schemes. Transform our hearts so powerfully that everyone around us will see what You have done and long for You.
Guide us into strong churches powerful in love, faith, and in anointed teaching of Your Word. Set aside for us family times of worship and Bible study, and fill that time with Your felt presence, speaking to each of our hearts in just the way we need and transforming us. Open up special teaching moments throughout the day for both parents and children where the truths of Your Word come alive in our daily life. Give us courage to pray with our children and teach them from the Word daily, Lord, no matter how busy we feel. Carve out those important times alone with You we as parents need, and give our children a hunger for time alone with You, as well. Wake us up each morning handing that day over to You, and guide us through every task, decision and situation. Give homeschooling parents energy and wisdom to teach through Your Spirit’s empowering. Cover our children with peace and give them the drive to excel in their studies, to run after You with all their heart, and to love, serve, and obey You all the days of their lives.
We speak LIFE over our families now in the name of Jesus. Healing. Hope. Peace. Love. Faith. Freedom. Wholeness. Compassion. And oneness with You and with each other. Today, O God, awaken every family all across the earth to Your love. Speak to us so loudly we will hear You and surrender to the only One who can make our families whole again.
Join us May 5 for the National Day of Prayer
Parallel Prayer: Our 30 Days of Prayer for Global Awakening coincides with Ramadan. April 2-May 1, Muslims throughout the world are fasting and seeking God right now. Let’s pray they find Him!
Father, so many orphans have been made in the midst of war and slaughter in Muslim nations. Place them in loving homes that will hunger for Truth and seek justice and mercy. Raise up Muslim mothers and fathers who will seek You with all their heart and find You. Whether they are listening to Christians who tell them the Good News, looking for the Gospel message over social media, or whatever way You choose to lead them to You, O Father, give them courage to stand strong against opposition and persecution, and lead their entire family to Christ. Make families who have converted from Muslim backgrounds to become Christians rock-solid pillars in their communities, constantly showing love, joy, peace, wisdom and mercy, and shining Your light so brightly everyone around them will ask what makes the difference, hear Your Good News, and be saved.
Dinner and a Prayer: Is there a family you’ve been praying for that is going through a hard time or doesn’t yet know Jesus? Or are you praying for Ukrainian, Afghan, Syrian, Yemeni or other families during this time of unrest? Find out some of their favorite recipes to cook for this dinner. If it’s someone you know, they will be so blessed to know you are praying for them in special ways on this day, and they may open up to you to share prayer requests and start conversations about the Lord. You can even invite them to dinner, if the Lord leads, and share with them His love.
