In Desperate Need Of A Spiritual Revival

[Dennis_]

Dear All,

The past few months have been some of the darkest in my life, deep disappointments, crashed hope, quenched faith, sin, lost motivation and constant deep sitted fear all ganged up and pushed me into a pit filled with miry clay..one that I could not get out of, I was/am constantly finding myself in the same situation and things all seemed to be failing...and all hope seemed lost..the lowest point was when I went hysterical and collapsed at my student Job as I was being let fired..which led me into 3 hospitals over a period of two weeks..until about 10 days ago..I am still failing to pick up the pieces..i have spent all this time in my apartment hoping that I will go to sleep and fail to wakeup.

I am behind on two University academic projects..behind on my tuition fees by two semesters its a very,very huge amount). no student job to support me..with the constant fear that the University will revoke my student status and inform the immigration office ..so visions of me being deported and everyone laughing at me as a total failure constantly haunting me,no self control ,random debilitating headaches.. absolute lack of hope and motivation, blaming the society here for inequality and being bitter (as EU students here get free education and a huge a student living grant) ..even to lacking the motivation to pray...and using escapisms like watching videos on youtube to forget my troubles and not think of the reality..

But the one thing that has stood out to me is how God loves me..how he has sustained me..In spite of all this I know my God is working through me for his Glory...even though I would feel at times like there is a large abyss between me and God...I don't know how this will end...but I trust that he knows my dreams..my hopes..and his plans are for Him to give me a future ..for his Glory.

He is the Lord of lords and by simply turning his face towards me..all these troubles that have taken away all my peace can vanish in an instant.

But I realize the root cause of my problem..is not all these trials..of course it would be nice if they all just vanished..but rather that I had forgotten my first Love.. its not to be the best software guy there is..or to build the next mobile revolution,iphone or google..but rather to Love and serve my God...I have let all these things come into my way and drag me down..they build up and weigh you down you know..

Now as all the pieces of my life lay on the floor..feeling hopeless and not knowing where to begin.. I know by my Gods grace he can pick the pieces up for me..even if I still face these challenges I know my God is with me,..

Please stand with me in prayer and ask that the Lord may bring about a radical revival in my life..in spite of what his will is for my life going forward from now..I will not fear oh lord..though I have let fear cover me like a thick black evil cloud...may the joy of your presence shine through me..for his Glory..not just for now but for the remainder of my coming life

Lord God you know my hopes and my dreams..and I believe you placed them in my heart for your glory..I pray for a revival...father a real revival.. I am in desperate need of a TRUE radical spiritual revival..please pray along with me.

Much love,

Dennis

Thank you Jesus for lifting the spirits of this man, thank you Jesus for helping Him in his times of need. Jesus you see this man and you know all his thoughts and hopes, and right now he needs to feel you Lord. I pray that his life will be better and that you will be his anchor in this storm. In Jesus name I pray Amen

Child of God,

Psalm 94:19 Tells Us…When I worried (when I am anxious) about many things, Your assuring words (God’s Word) soothed my soul with comfort and joy.

Let’s Pray… God I ask in Jesus’ name, “Minister to my heart through your Holy Spirit and the Word of God. Comfort me with peace and understanding when my spirit is troubled and I am overwhelmed. Let me pray about everything and not worry about anything. And as I am praying let the presence of Your Holy Spirit comfort me, quite my anxious thoughts and guard my heart and mind through Christ Jesus. Let me know that everything is going to be alright. That this will work out for my good.

When I don’t understand, give me understanding. When I don’t know which way to go, please direct my foot steps. Lead and guide me in the direction that You want me to take. Bless me with courage and deliver me from the spirit of fear when and if it tries to attack my faith with anxious thoughts. Bless me with strength when I am weak. Bless me with hope when all seems hopeless. Encourage Me Lord Jesus. Never let me give up on my God given dreams, and goals. Bless Me. Supply all my need. And all that I have asked You to do for me in this prayer please do the same for all those that care about me, those I care about, and the writer of this prayer, God Thank You for answering this prayer with a Yes and Amen.†Amen, so be it.

Philippians 4:6,7 tells us …. To be anxious for nothing (don’t worry about anything), but in everything by prayer and supplication (pray, talk to God), with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
