I believe that God desires revival throughout our churches. We have not because we ask not.

"If My people, will humble themselves and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin, and heal their land."

Note Brian's quote: prayer is combined with humility and seeking God. There are other passages emphasizing the need for action. Although I don't discount the power of prayer, nor question people's testimonies about prayer, I remain unconvinced that only prayer makes a complete game plan for a revival.

Very true, Jenny. I love how the one-word-blog gets the conversation going. Praying for a revival in other does not fit into a "humble themselves and seek My face" posture. I am seeking revival in my own life, because I need it. My thoughts on this matter are not to pray for a revival but rather to commit to a more devoted life of prayer and a biblical posture of prayer (humbly seeking His face). If we want to be revived, don't pray for revival, become a person of prayer. Pray to listen, pray to submit, pray to obey.

Thanks for the great comment, Jenny.
