What is on your prayer list?
We need prayer, and so does our nation. I am passionate that you and I need to be more active and consistent in how we use the privilege of prayer. To remember that God listens to our prayers whenever we pray should motivate us to bring all requests to Him in faith that He is loving and good and will act. Tomorrow is National Day of Prayer and I challenge you to take part in this united effort to intercede for our nation. This is a national movement and you can find out more info at www.nationaldayofprayer.org
The goal is to focus on 7 major points that we need God in. 1 - Government 2 - Military 3 - Media 4 - Business 5 - Education 6 - Church 7 - Family. Find some time during Thursday to pray for these areas. Below is a prayer by one of the founders and leaders of this movement. It's a good place to get started.
Father in Heaven,
"We lift our eyes toward Your Throne, where You reign in righteousness. Your Word assures us that when Your people cry out in sincerity and humility, You will never turn a deaf ear to us. We call upon You now, seeking Your forgiveness and favor. Look over this fevered landscape and heal us, Lord. Drop knees to the floor and raise eyes to the sky, for we know where our help comes from. Unite these States again in devotion to You, and blur every dividing line. Do not give us over to our sins. Give us, instead, over to passionate prayer that moves Your heart. “May Your unfailing love rest upon us, O Lord, even as we put our hope in You.” In the Name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ " Beth Moore
Amen
