``God always has a revival pattern all through scripture and all through the history of this his church. So can I just be transparent with you? I'm not asking us just to go through the motions. I'm asking for a move of God like he wants, not like we want. Most of us pray oftentimes for ourselves. God bless us. God move in us. But what if our prayer started changing? God, would you please speak to us? And Lord God, we wanna hear your voice and follow that in a powerful profound way. [00:36:44] (35 seconds)  #SeekGodsMove Download clip

Teach me to live like Jesus. And all this year, we'll do that too. So I'm just asking God, let that hunger that we've had these last several days, let it continue and let it grow. Don't put an end to anything. Let it be a springboard to more things to come. Secondly, prayer intensifies. There's never been a move of God in history, in biblical history, that did not start with prayer. And not just casual prayer, but intense, fervent prayer. Beth Morris says there are certain victories that will only happen with passionate, fervent prayer. [00:37:47] (36 seconds)  #HungerForGod Download clip

Pray like Jesus for a move of God. What if it's not just us finishing these twenty one days of prayer and fasting, or somehow sort of closing the book on this season. What if this is a springboard for you and for our church to move and really determine that we're not gonna give up the ground that we've gained?

There was a man named Gypsy Smith, and he was an evangelist from Britain who really got radically changed by his love for Jesus. And he said, I I'm so hungry for a revival that what I do is I draw a circle in the ground. And I step into that circle, and I pray earnestly and passionately, God, send revival. Send a move of God and let us start in this circle. [01:05:02] (29 seconds)  #CircleOfPrayer Download clip

People all over our congregation, all ages seeking the face of God here on Saturdays, and Fridays, and Wednesdays, and Sunday mornings going after God. So I want us to be ready for what God wants to do. And the question I ask as we start today is, what if? What if God in his grace and his mercy wants us as a church to follow a pattern of the New Testament? So we're talking today, pray like Jesus for revival.

I wanna talk about moves of God. We just say that song, Lord, we need a move of God. We're hungry. We're desperate. We're please, Lord God, open the heavens. So if we're hungry for move of God, not just to feel good, or have a good service or somehow be touched. What if God's move is way bigger than our move? What if what if God has something supernatural planned for us? And so, in history, biblical history, in modern history, and also in present history, God's revivals or his moves are not a mystery, it's a pattern.

For those here at Cornerstone, you've sensed the presence of God growing and moving. A hunger for God that's just phenomenal. I I've been so blessed throughout this fast, and I've been here long enough at Cornerstone Church to fast a lot of times with our church family. But this year, it was way different. This year, it was not me pushing, it was God drawing. [00:33:23] (22 seconds)  #GodDrawingNotPushing Download clip

Revival in the biblical times and in historical times had a certain pattern that I believe that God wants to move in today as well. And there are seven things that usually preceded a move of God. God's people would hunger for more of God. In other words, we're not seeking to get, we're seeking to know. We're seeking more of him and all through this fast, we're saying, God, teach me to pray like Jesus. [00:37:18] (28 seconds)  #SeekToKnowGod Download clip
