"God, give my church and me a heart for our community. Let me see the people through Your eyes. And give me the courage and the wisdom to let go of this church, so that others who best reflect this community can lead and teach us."
1. Proverbs 10: 29-30 NASB “The way of the Lord is a stronghold to the upright, but ruin to the workers of iniquity. The righteous will never be shaken, But the wicked will not dwell in the land.” Father God, what an encouragement it is to know that there is strength in doing things Your way. God, Your provision is a steady place of strength and security while the consequences of going against You lead to ruin. Help us to walk wisely.
2. Psalm 47: 5-7 NASB “God has ascended with a shout, The Lord, with the sound of a trumpet. Sing praises to God, sing praises; Sing praises to our King, sing praises. For God is the King of all the earth; Sing praises with a skillful psalm.” Father God, teach us to spend more time praising You, our King. Receive our joyful praise as we sing and sing and sing! Let us come before You with honest hearts full of praise prepared to worship.
