Pray for Personal Breakthrough: Pray for True Revival
Meditate On It
1. What can be observed of Jesus’ prayer life from this passage? What is the difference between prayers and supplications (v7)?
2. Based on the verses, how and why was Jesus heard in His intercession?
3. What did Jesus have to learn? By what means did He learn it (v8)?
4. What does the phrase “having been made perfect” mean? What is this referring to (v9a)?
5. What is the result of Jesus’ prayer and perfection for those who obey (v9b)?
Apply It
Jesus, even as God’s Son who is both divine and human, had to learn obedience by what He experienced. He prayed in surrender to the will of the Father and it resulted in our greatest need being fulfilled: redemption in Christ. True revival comes out of being broken, obeying God’s will, and surrendering our very lives to the Lord.
1. How is my own prayer life? Does it change when I experience good or challenging times? How can I cultivate a surrendered life of prayer?
2. How do I process suffering and trials? Do I draw near to God’s throne of mercy and grace or do I still persist in my own solutions?
3. By faith, I will surrender to the Lord this certain aspect of my life…
Set Simple, Measurable, Appropriate, Realistic, Time-bound (SMART) commitments
Example: “I will cultivate a life of dependence on God through daily prayer and Bible reading (1 chapter a day) starting today.”
Pray It
- Take the time to cast your burdens unto the Lord: any discouragement, anxiety, guilt, regret, or fear that gets in the way of our relationship with God.
- Confess and ask forgiveness for sin, shortcomings, and any bondage or addictions; seek God’s restoration in our lives as we repent and surrender.
- Ask the Lord for a personal breakthrough in seeking God’s wisdom and counsel for your life; let the Holy Spirit provide a spiritual revival for you, with renewed strength and zeal to follow Him.
