Revival of Unity

Father we come boldly and humbly to the Throne Room, by faith we
receive the presence and love of the Father, and by faith we believe Christ
is at the right hand of the Father, making intercession for the church and
the world; anoint us to pray and lead us by the Holy Spirit in praying
prayers for unity of the church, and the eternal purpose of our Lord, which
is the Bride of Christ, the church around the world.

We bow our knees before you to pray your Will for the church around the
world. We know there is only one church, the bride of Christ, and we know
there is only one head, which is Christ. The Church is called to be set
apart meaning holy, we are called to manifest the Kingdom of God from our
hearts through the Holy Spirit.

"For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the
church: and he is the saviour of the body." (Eph 5:23 AV)
"But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy
shall be sanctified in righteousness." (Isa 5:16 AV)
"For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified [are] all of one:
for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren," (Heb 2:11 AV)
"Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth." (Joh 17:17 AV)
"Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood,
suffered without the gate." (Heb 13:12 AV)


We know, Father, the day will come when we will all stand before the
Judgment seat of Christ; and Christ will say to each one of us, why
division, why envy, why strife, why pride, why hate and why not unity? We
know in the presence of Christ there is only truth, we cannot hide sin, a
lie, and we cannot hide pride. In His presence we will know His love,
and His unity, and we will have no reasons for divisions, hatred, strife
or pride. Let us live in the truth and presence of Christ today and let us
grow in unity and love with the Lord and with one another.

"If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be
desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another." (Ga
5:25-26 AV)


However, we know, Father, that we are already in the presence of Christ,
and He is the Judge, and the Judge is at the door of the church, each of
our church congregations, and each of our hearts. Therefore there is no
reason for division, hatred, or strife in the church. If we don't love
unity, Lord, help each of us learn that if we don't love, then we don't
love Christ, and then we hinder His will for the Church, and His presence
from manifesting in our lives.

"If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that
loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath
not seen?" (1Jo 4:20 AV)


Yes, Father, we know the presence of the Lord is with us always, but we
need to come to know if we don't love, He will not manifest. Teach us to
choose love, choose unity, choose to love one another, and believe for unity
in the church.

"Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. No man hath
seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his
love is perfected in us. Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us,
because he hath given us of his Spirit." (1Jo 4:11-13 AV)

"It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every
man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto
me." (Joh 6:45 AV)

"But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye
yourselves are taught of God to love one another." (1Th 4:9 AV)


Father, help us be free from the modern day judgment of not
discerning the Lord's Body, the church, the Bride of Christ. Let us see
with the eyes of faith the church around the world, those whom Christ has
received; we receive as brothers and sisters in Christ.

"Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory
of God." (Ro 15:7 AV)
"And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth
me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that
is least among you all, the same shall be great." (Lu 9:48 AV)


Father let your mercy come upon us now by faith, let the outpouring of
love come upon us by faith, we pray for healing love to come in our hearts
by faith, let the work of the Holy Spirit come upon our lives in deep impact
movements.

We pray for seeds of righteousness, right order, city church unity,
city church vision, unity of the church, and visions of unity to be planted
in the hearts of all believers around the world. We pray for a harvest of
mercy to come upon the lives of all believers in the church around the
world. Break up the fallow ground, break up divisions, break up pride,
break up envy, break up strife, and break up hatred. Seek us by the Holy
Spirit, pour out upon all believers the Spirit of supplication, and the
Spirit of grace, we pray for a mighty awakening in the church around the
world beginning in the hearts of faith in the church around the world, and
we pray for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, the outpouring of revivals,
the outpouring of healing, the outpouring of salvation, the outpouring of
unity, the outpouring of signs and wonders, and the outpouring of
righteousness.

"Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will
make known my words unto you." (Pr 1:23 AV)
"But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; And it shall come to
pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all
flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men
shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: And on my servants
and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they
shall prophesy:" (Ac 2:16-18 AV)


We pray for revival, we pray for revivals, we pray for the revival
life, we pray for personal revival, we pray for lasting revival, and we pray
for massive revival.

"Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to cease.
Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all
generations? Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in
thee?" (Ps 85:4-6 AV)


Father we pray for revival of unity, we pray for revivals of unity
to come to the church in every city, every nation, and globally for glory of
Christ.

"[Even] every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my
glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him." (Isa 43:7 AV)
"Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory
of God." (Ro 15:7 AV)
"And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one,
even as we are one:" (Joh 17:22 AV)
"I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that
the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast
loved me." (Joh 17:23 AV)


We pray for revivals of love to come to every believer in Christ, to
come to every Christian home around the world, in every nation and in every
city for the glory of Christ.

"By this shall all [men] know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one
to another." (Joh 13:35 AV)


Father we pray for a revival of unity to come. We pray for unity to come in
the church around the world, from city to city, from nation to nation, and
globally.

"I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that
the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast
loved me." (Joh 17:23 AV)


We pray in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
