This powerful book explores how prayer is the essential catalyst for spiritual revival—both personally and within the church. Drawing from his experience leading the world’s largest church in Seoul, South Korea, Pastor Cho emphasizes that revival is not a mystery but a result of persistent, Spirit-led prayer.
Key Themes:
- Prayer as the Foundation of Revival
Every major revival in church history was preceded by fervent prayer. Cho argues that when prayer fades, revival loses momentum.
- Three Levels of Prayer
- Ask (Petition): Bringing personal needs to God
- Seek (Devotion): Deepening relationship with God
- Knock (Intercession): Praying on behalf of others, even sharing in Christ’s suffering
- Prayer as a Lifestyle
Cho encourages believers to treat prayer as vital as eating or sleeping. He shares how his church’s “Prayer Mountain” hosts thousands of people fasting and praying weekly.
- Forms and Methods of Prayer
Includes family devotions, cell meetings, all-night prayer, fasting, and waiting on the Lord. Cho also teaches about praying in the Holy Spirit, the prayer of faith, and listening to God’s voice.
- Transformation Through Prayer
Prayer brings spiritual, mental, and physical benefits. It’s portrayed as a divine investment that yields lasting change.
This book is both a personal testimony and a practical guide, urging readers to cultivate a deeper, more consistent prayer life. If you’re seeking spiritual renewal, Cho’s insights are a compelling invitation to start on your knees.
