Prayer Focuses for 03/08-03/14

Below are this week's prayer focuses.

Thursday, March 8

Ask God to make us into more than just a group of people who meet up once a week to sing songs and talk about the Bible.  Ask Him to make us a family who truly love each other with both our words and our deeds. 

Friday, March 9

It’s easy for our faith to be reduced to something much smaller than it really is.  Ask God to make us into a people who know and follow Him. 

Saturday, March 10

The G family finish their time in training around this time in March.  Pray for them as they head back to OK for 2 weeks.  Ask God to help them truly enjoy their time at home with their family before they head to their new home and new job in SE Asia. 

Sunday, March 11

Like what is described in Psalm 78:5-7, pray that the children in our church would come to a place where they’re able to “set their hope in God.”  Pray that what they learn now—from their parents and their teachers—would be laying the groundwork for a mature faith. 

Monday, March 12

Prayerfully think through some practical ways you can do good to a neighbor, co-worker, or someone around you in need this week.  Ask the Holy Spirit to lead us in this and empower us to show genuine interest, hospitality, and love to those around us

Tuesday, March 13

Romans 12:1-8 teaches us that we're to serve God and others motivated by the grace that He has shown us.  Spend some time reflecting on and thanking God for His grace, then ask Him to make us into a people who truly worship—offer up to Him the whole of our lives—in response to what He's done for us. 

Wednesday, March 14

Ask God to open a door for our church to be able to gather in a place where our gospel can be lived out and transformative to the surrounding community.  Pray for potential partnerships.
