Wednesday is for Prayer
Found some more reasons to pray and cultivate a life of prayer. I just read a statistic proving Neil Postman right, that we are entertaining ourselves to death in America. Increasingly we are living for trivialities.
Revival is the nation’s only hope and no revival has ever happened that wasn’t preceded by the people of God becoming passionate about confessing their own sin and poverty of spirit and their neighbor’s need for the gospel.
Here’s the stat that got my attention:
