DAY SEVENTEEN:
So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.

Today, pray for binding oppression and fear. When you magnify the Lord, you shrink the supposed power of your enemy, the devil. The greatest thing you can do in the midst of battle is to magnify the Lord. (Psalm 69:30) What arear do you need to magnify the Lord in today?

DAY TWENTY ONE:
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. Romans 5:1-4
Today, pray for the Holy Spirit to fall. Focus your prayers on the Spirit of prayers to be released in churches and homes. Prayers that God will revive us again!
For your journal: On this final day, ask the Lord to reveal to you if there is any unforgiveness, bitterness or other hindrances that have yet to lay fully before your Lord. Prepare for blessing, harvest and anointing life you have never experienced before. Get ready because the rest of this year will not be like any other before!
