PRAYER FOR YOUR CHURCH

Lord, I lift up my deacons to You. May they walk worthy of respect with sincere hearts. Keep them from indulgence and greed. Help them keep hold of truth. May they keep short accounts with You so that their conscience is clear. Bless their households with peace and respect. Fill them with Your Spirit and let them operate in wisdom as they carry out their responsibilities. (1 Tim. 3:8-9, 12; Acts 6:3)

Should We Pray for the Lost?

By Jonathan Graf

I have a close friend who believes that we do not need to pray for the lost. His reasoning is that nowhere in scripture does it say that we are to pray for the lost. There are commands to pray for a few things—the peace of Jerusalem, laborers for the harvest, pray for your enemy—but nowhere does it command us to pray for the lost.

This daily devotional (which is easily adapted for small group or Sunday school class use) is an excellent resource to help people catch a vision for praying for lost neighbors, then moving out to care for them and share the love of Christ with them.

How to Build a House of Prayer

By Dave Butts

Knowing that God’s House is to be a House of Prayer is one thing. Knowing how to build that House is another. The Bible tells us that unless the Lord builds the house, those who labor, labor in vain. That is especially so when we are speaking of a local congregation that becomes so impacted and driven by prayer that it truly could be called a House of Prayer.
