Power of Prayer

“For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. ~ Jeremiah 29:10-12

As we begin this journey, we should ask ourselves, “What is God calling us to do?” He is calling us to seek Him and His glory. What we ask according to His will, He has promised to give. Therefore, he makes it possible for each person to glorify Him. During this campaign, we will ask each member to participate in 40 days of prayer starting July 19th. As we prepare our hearts and our minds for this endeavor we need to . . .

1. Pray in unity as a family of believers.
2. Pray to the Almighty.
3. Pray in urgency as we envision what God can do.
4. Pray not our will but God’s will be done.
5. Pray not to escape from suffering but for empowerment during suffering.
6. Pray not for tasks equal to our powers or situation but for the powers equal to God’s tasks.
7. Pray not for the hand of man to work for God but for the hand of God to work in the life of this church.

To God be the glory forever and ever and ever!
