Topic: Repeat Them In Our Days!
Text: Habakkuk 3: 2
Lord, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, Lord. Repeat them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath remember mercy. Amen.
Oh how we long for the days when godliness was the standard. Those times when the body of Christ will not cease praying until the earth conforms to the will of heaven. Those were the times when believers had no other desire than to do the will of the Father and obey His Word. This was reflected in how they lived, dressed and spoke.
Therefore, God in turn confirmed His every word in their lives and blessed them beyond measure. His presence was constantly with them, doing wonders.
Lately, man has little or no room for God anymore. We are too busy enjoying the earth than to bother about some everlasting God or eternity. Even believers are caught up in the chase of the world and EVERYTHING in it so they detest pure spirituality. Almost, to say: “don’t be too deep into God, a little ‘fun’, a little of God, that’s how to go.”
No wonder there is no revival in our land. The love for this world and for money has crippled many, and virtually succeeded in creating a generation that has so comprised the Word of God that we hardly see the manifestation of its awesome power in our very lives. The countless miracles we see in the Bible are not happening in our days anymore.
The trust of the masses is now resting on a few self-acclaimed spiritual men/women whose very spirituality is sometimes questionable as some of their activities are unbiblical and the fruits they bear look nothing like Christ.
Now, gather together all those who desire to see the manifestation of the power of God active and strong in our lives, churches and communities again. It is time to pray and our prayer is a very simple one: “Lord, we have heard of your fame; we stand in awe of your deeds, Lord. Repeat them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath remember mercy.”
Pray with all your heart and refuse to give up till there is absolute repentance on earth as it was in the days of Jonah when he preached to the people of Nineveh; and until there is a turnover of whole cities as it was in the days of the apostles.
Also pray to see miraculous signs and wonders happening in and with the lives of all who have come to believe in Christ, just as Jesus promised. And pray the peace of God over your mind, body and soul as it was in the days of Solomon.
Ask for the miracle of Hannah, Sarah and Elizabeth; the elevation of David from a shepherd to a king; the healing of Naaman, and the intellect of Daniel. Tell the Lord to repeat these in our days and magnify His Word in our lives that we may live for Him. In His wrath, plead that He remembers mercy.
