Grand awakening exists to call
west michigan to
revival and ​spiritual awakening! 

While each spiritual awakening in history has had its unique qualities, they all have had one feature in common: they all began with God's people uniting in desperate, humble, and expectant prayer. And not just ordinary prayer, but extraordinary prayer specifically for revival of the church and spiritual awakening of our culture. We long to see more and more people joining us in praying for God to revive us, the Church of West Michigan, leading to--in His sovereignty--a mighty Awakening that brings hundreds of thousands of people to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.

Having said that, we also are convinced that while prayer is absolutely essential to revival and spiritual awakening, it is not, by itself, sufficient to produce a mighty move of God. Why do we say this? For one, God is sovereign and He alone decides when revival and awakening will happen. But, beyond that, there are things we as the Church need to DO in addition to pray. God has downloaded to us what some of those things are. Look at this:
We need to Turn and Pray; then Unite and Obey. The early Church didn't specifically pray for revival. Jesus prayed that the Church would have unity. (See John 17:20-23). The early Church themselves prayed for boldness and that Jesus' power and love would be manifested in our world. (See Acts 4:24-31). Just imagine the power of Christians of all denominations and ethnicities reaching out in unity and love to the needy of our world! THAT could spark a mighty move of God in our day! Friends, why not us? Why not now?

The pictures and brief video below are just a small part of the West Michigan National Day of Prayer event May 2nd, 2019 as folks read Scripture in Spanish, Chinese, Korean and English and then prayed for unity of THE BODY of Christ in West Michigan. Here is the verse that should propel us to work diligently for unity:
