This week’s prayer passage is a core passage that informs our prayer lives. We are Christians. As Christ’s possessions we come to him humbly in prayer. We seek the presence of Christ. We turn in repentance from our sin. As we do this, God hears our prayers from the throne of Heaven, forgives us and heals us. This is such a great privilege and promise!
Spend some time praying according to the points below:
:: Spend some time recounting how God saved you and express your gratitude for his work in growing you in the gospel.
:: Confess any known areas of pride and sin in your life and in the life of your church family.
:: Ask for forgiveness and renewal in Christ’s presence and ask the Lord to provide true sorrowful repentance in the lives of his people.
:: Pray for the 26,000 people in our community. 17,000 do not know Christ. Divorce rates are high, addictions are devastating and broken families are systemic. Ask the Lord for healing throughout our community.
