Will You Join Me in Prayer?

Commenting on Mark 9:29, "This kind can come forth by nothing but prayer and fasting," the great Welsh preacher Martyn Lloyd-Jones says,
It seems to me that the call to every one of us is ...to consecrate and dedicate ourselves specifically to the task of praying for that spiritual revival which God alone can send. The trouble with us, I am afraid, is that we have not sufficiently diagnosed the situation. We are still confident in our methods. It seems to me there is no hope until we shall have so realised the nature of the problem that we are driven to our knees, to wait upon God.
