Hungering for Righteousness

Scripture: Matthew 5:6; Psalm 63:1

Contemplative: Ask God to increase holy desire.

Contending: Pray for revival hunger in Knoxville.

God calls us to a hunger that goes beyond daily needs—a deep longing for His righteousness and presence. As we pray, we ask Him to stir a holy desire within our hearts, making us thirst for more of His truth and goodness. In that longing, we find our souls satisfied and our lives aligned with His will. From this place, we intercede for Knoxville, praying that our city would awaken to a revival hunger for God’s righteousness.

Lord, stir in us a deep hunger for Your righteousness and presence. Satisfy our souls with Your truth and awaken holy desire in our hearts. Pour out revival on Knoxville, that our city would long for You above all else and be transformed by Your Spirit. Amen.

“The flame kindled by the Spirit must feed on the Word.” — Jerome
