This Week's Prayer Focus: DISCIPLESHIP
  • Pray that participants in the 40 Days of Purpose Campaign will have a renewed desire to pursue spiritual habits in their lives.
  • Pray that each person in our church would increase in spiritual maturity and godly character.
  • Pray for the personal desire of each person to grow in the knowledge of God through His word.
  • Pray that the 40 Days of Purpose Campaign will give a new understanding of suffering. Pray that trials will be viewed as opportunities God allows for our growth.
  • Pray for God to give insight to people as to how they can help others progress in their faith.
  • Thank God for all the people who have had a part in helping others grow closer to God.

“And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ.” - Philippians 1:9-11 (niv)

“Whatever happens, conduct yourself in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ.” - Philippians 1:27 (niv)

“Like art, like music, like so many other disciplines, prayer can only be appreciated when you actually spend time in it. Spending time with the Master will elevate your thinking. The more you pray, the more will be revealed. You will understand. You will smile and nod your head as you identify with others who fight long battles and find great joy on their knees.” - Joni Eareckson Tada
