Praying Across Alabama



Seeking God through prayer for revival and spiritual awakening across our state

What started in the Baptist churches of Alabama on February 24, continues to impact Alabama, as we push toward May 2.  At each courthouse across the state citizens are gathering for a time of concerted prayer, praying to a God who hears and will respond according to His Word and His will.

Here at Rockford, we took time in our morning service to pause and apply the principles of 2 Chronicles 7:14 and seek God for revival in our church, in our town, in our county and in our state.

“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV)

 

How we need revival in our land!  We are surrounded on every side by the evil and sin of rebellion and pride, selfishness and apathy.  Within the church and without, there is such a turning away from God as never before seen.  We are seeing such hardness and self-centeredness as never before.  We who are called by God’s name must start with our own lives.

We must take the stand.  We must humble ourselves, we must pray, we must seek the face of God, and we must turn from our ways of sin.  Isaiah says we must seek God while He is found (Isaiah 55:6)  He is in His temple, He is waiting on us, God’s people, to call out to Him.

Are you praying for revival?
