I would like to use sequential equation numbering but I am using the report class which defaults to numbering equations within chapters. I would really appreciate if someone could help me with this.

You can use chngcntr package with its \counterwithout:
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{chngcntr}
\counterwithout{equation}{chapter}
\begin{document}
\chapter{First chapter}
\begin{equation}
x=y
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
x=z
\end{equation}
\chapter{Second chapter}
\begin{equation}
x \neq y
\end{equation}
\chapter{Third chapter}
\begin{equation}
x= a + y
\end{equation}
%
\end{document}
