Devotional Reflection

LoveGratitudeHopeCompassion

Dryness, whether spiritual or physical, is taxing on the spirit and causes all living things to die. Let us join our hearts today, tens of thousands of us, and pray that God will do two things: (1) bring rain and refreshment to dry and hard places; and (2) refresh all of His servants who are discouraged and on the verge of giving up because of their difficulties, challenges, temptations, discouragements, and failures. Let us pray that today is a day of regeneration and the beginning of a fresh start for the world and God's people!

Prayer

Lord, Almighty God, you are more capable than we could ever hope or imagine. We are asking you today to offer comfort to every country and worn-out heart by uniting our voices and emotions in this prayer. Please provide rain to the regions of the globe that are experiencing drought. Also, please bring revival to our churches and into the hearts of all those who serve you globally. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
