Throughout the Old and New Testaments and church history, every spiritual awakening was founded on corporate, prevailing, intensive kingdom-centered prayer. We cannot create spiritual renewal by ourselves, but we can “prepare the altar” and ask God to send his Holy Spirit to change our hearts, our churches, and our communities.

This talk was originally given as training for lay leaders at Redeemer Presbyterian Church. You can find a version of the handout that originally accompanied this talk under the article, Kingdom-Centered Prayer.
