Hello,
Praise God for what He has been doing, and is going to do in Silicon Valley. For many, many years pastors, leaders, intercessors and prayer teams have been asking the Lord to move in the cities, churches and neighbors all around Silicon Valley, and I believe God is so focused on this area that He wants to rebrand Silicon Valley as Revival Valley. It is God’s will for renewal & revival to break out all across this SF Bay Area and beyond! A revival that sends a multitude of missionaries back to their homelands as carriers of the Gospel of Christ!
I am writing to you because God says it is good to stir each other up to love and good deeds (Heb 10:24), and I want to stir afresh a vision to see God Kingdom in this land, and see a revival in Silicon Valley and the SF Bay Area.
Chiefly my prayer is that love would abound, I prayer for you and your church:
- That the Father’s love would be known more deeply by all (we love because He first loved us).
- That the love of God and His passions would shine brighter in each heart! (Love God).
- That love for each other, other churches and for the lost who grow hotter and hotter! (Love others, resulting in unity in Christ).
- That all the gifts of God would be stirred up, empowered and released in service with love (especially words of encouragement, wisdom and insight, 1Cor chapters 12, 13, 14).
——————————
I believe God is putting the structures in place to help sustain this revival. Scaffolding has been setup up to help build His Kingdom in a way that has lasting impact on this important region.
- We pray that all the nets will be mended before the massive catch is hauled in.
- What nets need to be mended near you?
- We pray that every church evaluates how much of their ‘structures’ are built upon the Rock, versus simple sand.
- What have you built in your heart?
- We pray that each heart will start saying ‘Yes’ to everything the Lord has, growing the Revival tidal wave larger and larger.
- What does ‘Yes’ look like for you?
——————————
Beyond this, as God starts to move, it will test all we have built as a church. Are the teachings, programs, and services built upon the Rock, the words of Jesus, or are they built on sand, efforts explained by the hands of men and women? A revival wave of God’s goodness will test the structures we have built.
We pray for all the churches:
- To be ready to receive the prodigals and the lost. Many will return, will we run to them like the Father ran?
- To be ready for rapid growth, not dependent on a few, but releasing the many filled with the Holy Spirit to do the words of Christ.
- For faith to be stretched, as God will do new things, as well as provide for His children by new means.
——————————
May the peace of God move our hearts to expect the impossible:
— A revival that rebrands a region.
— A revival that launches a thousand messengers of the Gospel around the world.
— A revival where each says ‘Yes’ to the leadings of the Spirit, that says a surrendered ‘Yes’ to the lordship of Christ, that says a joyful ‘Yes’ to the embracing love of the Father!
Blessings in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
