May You be gracious to us and bless us; make your face to shine on us so that your ways may be known on earth and your salvation among all nations. May all the peoples praise you and may the nations be glad and sing for joy. You rule the peoples with equity and guide the nations of the earth. By your Holy Spirit, cause renewal, revival and repentance to flow through your Church – have mercy on us, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out your Church’s transgressions, wash away all her iniquity, and cleanse her from her sin. Pour out your fires of revival not just on the remnant of the Church, but on those who are lukewarm and cold so that each Believer has a renewed heart, mind, soul, and spirit for the Love and Grace of the Lord. And then pour out your Awakening on the rest of our world. As they hear the message of the Good News of Jesus Christ, may billions be saved by grace and brought into the Kingdom of Jesus Christ. May this world yield its harvest and know that You have blessed us. Bless your Church and your People so that all the ends of the earth will fear, love, and serve you. In Christ’s name we pray, Amen.
