Restore us again, O God of our salvation, and put away your indignation toward us! Will you be angry with us forever? Will you prolong your anger to all generations? Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you? (Psalm 85:4-6 ESV)
Revival, renewal, restoration. That is what God's people need to pray for. It starts by looking to God to look within ourselves. It needs to take place individually, like David, who cried out "Restore to me the joy of my salvation." And it needs to take place corporately, like the Psalmist says here: us... our... us...us...us. Revive us, oh Lord.
