National College Day of Prayer

Thursday, February 25, 2010

For almost 100 years our nation reserved a special day each year to pray for its colleges. God faithfully answered those prayers and America witnessed an era of ongoing revivals and awakenings.

Let's believe God together for another great awakening in this generation. There has never been a greater need than right now. Nearly 100 years later, it's time to break the silence!

Transforming College Campuses with Prayer...
In those days the Church in America observed a day of united prayer for God to awaken and revive our colleges, and yet no such day of prayer exists today. At a time when the spiritual needs of our nation and world are so great, and so many are calling for more student prayer, is there any reason why this historic day of prayer should not be reestablished?

A witness of these historic events was once asked about the spiritual decline of America’s students. Without hesitation, she replied: “It is due almost entirely to the fact that we no longer observe the Day of Prayer for Colleges as we used to do. There used to be long seasons of prayer in the college chapel and all day meetings for fasting and prayer in almost all the churches. We asked God to raise up ministers and missionaries among the students and He did it...‘Ye have not because ye ask not.’”
