LORD, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, O LORD. Renew them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath remember mercy. --Habakkuk 3:2
You are amazing, Lord, and truly worthy of praise! You were there from before time began. You are beyond time and all time lies in Your hands. We praise You for the wonders of Your creation, for how You fearfully and wonderfully made each person that walks the earth (Psalm 139:14). We praise You for your mercy, for the way You led a rebellious people out of slavery and oppression in Israel and how You showed them Your wonderous power all along. Even more, we praise You for the merciful and selfless loving act of sacrificing Your only Son to save all future rebellious peoples from condemnation (John 3:16). We praise Your for the miraculous deeds You performed through Peter and Paul and others who followed You in the early days of the church. We praise You for the miracles You are still performing today. Father, we confess to You our own unbelief and the unbelief of many in our generation. We have become so self-sufficient in our abundance that we forget what it means to fall on our knees and depend solely on You. Father, we thank You for Your patience with our unbelief (Mark 9:24-29) and we pray for a renewal of faith throughout Your body that we might see Your glory displayed more often. Lord, just as Moses cried out in days of the exodus out of Egypt, we cry that You would show us Your glory (Exodus 33:18). Lord, many of us in the body have heard of Your awesome deeds but have not seen them first hand. We believe, Lord, but we long for the fresh revival of faith that you are beginning to move throughout Your people. Father, some say that the time of miracles has passed, but we know that You are unchanging and You are just as much a God of the miraculous today as You were 2000 years ago. Our hearts cry out to see Your glory, Lord! We pray for a renewal of Your awesome deeds in our day. Lord, for the sake of Your name and Your fame, renew Your wondorous works and make them known throughout our world. Father, in the midst of Your wrath at our spiritual laziness, remember the mercy You have shown us for thousands of generations. Bless us with a fresh glimpse of Your glory and Your wonders. Renew our spirits, our hearts, our minds, and our souls with a fresh revelation of all that You are and all that You can do if we would just believe You (Matthew 17:20). Lord, we praise Your holy name and thank You for the power that You want to exercise in each of our lives by faith. Oh, Lord, we want to see more people fall on their knees in awe of You!
