Each church in every generation struggles to be the church Jesus desires her to be. Some churches in 21st century seem to be doing well. Some are almost dead. Most churches are somewhere in the middle, surviving or maybe doing OK, but not really thriving. They need revitalization and for that to become a reality, the church greatly needs our prayers.

It can be confusing to know how to pray for a given church. Fortunately, the scriptures show us how. One crucial place to learn how to pray for churches are Jesus' words to the seven churches of Revelation. Each church represents one of seven types of churches always found in the world. Churches that are struggling in different ways to be the church that Jesus wants them to be.

This book will show you how to pray specifically for these seven different types of churches along with accompanying prayer guides.
