Father God, I pray that You would raise up men and women who fear You,  who are not afraid to preach Your Word, who don’t fear what unbelievers, objectors or apologists might say about them. Raise up ministers who will lead Your people out of darkness into light through Your Holy Word that gives life. Father God, let Your Word be preached with Holy Spirit power and authority in church buildings, wherever Your people gather to worship You. 

I pray that Your name, Your plans and purpose will have pre eminence over all programmes, over ego, over self. Father, fill the collective hearts and minds of Your church family with fire, fire to worship, to preach and teach Your Word that the souls of men and women, boys and girls will be healed, saved, delivered, restored, reconciled. I pray that hearts will pant after You, for the living Word of God, that faith be restored, blind eyes opened, that Your people hear what the Spirit is saying to the church. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
