Pray the Word with David Platt is a resource from Radical.net.

Psalm chapter 85 verse 6. Will you not revive us again that your people may rejoice in you? No,

this is a really good prayer to pray for revival. What does that mean? God revive us again. Well,

the picture there is God breathe life into us. God bring the dead to life or bring those who

are struggling to breathe to life. Revive us that we may rejoice in you. Don't you love that

revive us again. Please revive us. Open our eyes, our hearts, our minds, our lives to the fullness,

to the wonder of who you are. God, we pray you'd help us to leave behind any sense in every sense of
