Day 160: Prayer for the saints to overcome the degradation of the church
Pray that the saints would overcome the degradation of the church by Christ as the sevenfold intensified Spirit in order to live a normal, overcoming church life for the fulfillment of God’s eternal purpose (Rev. 2:7, 11, 17, 26-29; 3:5-6, 12-13, 21-22; Hymns, #1273, s. 1 and chorus).
Rev. 2:7—He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, to him I will give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of God.
Rev. 2:11—He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. He who overcomes shall by no means be hurt of the second death.
Rev. 2:17—He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, to him I will give of the hidden manna, and to him I will give a white stone, and upon the stone a new name written, which no one knows except him who receives it.
Rev. 2:26-29—And he who overcomes and he who keeps My works until the end, to him I will give authority over the nations; and he will shepherd them with an iron rod, as vessels of pottery are broken in pieces, as I also have received from My Father; and to him I will give the morning star. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
Rev. 3:5-6—He who overcomes will be clothed thus, in white garments, and I shall by no means erase his name out of the book of life, and I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
Rev. 3:12-13—He who overcomes, him I will make a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall by no means go out anymore, and I will write upon him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the New Jerusalem, which descends out of heaven from My God, and My new name. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
Rev. 3:21-22—He who overcomes, to him I will give to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat with My Father on His throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
