Lord, we're living in perilous times.

The kingdoms are in an uproar.

The nation of Israel sits
at the hub of history,
and the predictions of Your Word
are unfolding like a scroll.

Evil has never been stronger
and the end has never been closer.

Our world is in the grip
of the birth pangs of tribulation,
the likes of which have never
been seen before and will
never be seen again.

Lord, rejecting the spirit of fear, we claim the
Spirit of power, love, and a sound mind.

Help us preach the Gospel in these
last days.

Give us a sense of urgency, anticipation, and
evangelism as we await the upward call.

May we persevere as we listen for the shout,
for the voice of the archangel,
and for the trumpet call of God.

Dear Lord, give us patience and give
us power.
Give us strength and sound minds, as we
pray: "Even so, come, Lord Jesus!"

Amen!
