PRAY FOR our church family
“You also must help us by prayer, so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us through the prayers of many.”
— 2Co 1:11
“praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints…” —Eph 6:18
“To this end we always pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his calling and may fulfill every resolve for good and every work of faith by his power…” —2Th 1:11
We are at war against spiritual forces of sin and darkness, and our church family are our brothers and sisters at arms. Prayer is our direct line of support for one another, petitioning the Father on each other’s behalf. If we are to be a strong people for God’s mission, we must remember that there’s no such thing as the “lone-wolf Christian.” We must be in constant prayer for our brothers and for our church if we want to accomplish anything for Christ’s kingdom.
Today, let’s:
Pray that the Holy Spirit would be at work within our church, sanctifying us in love, strength, knowledge, and faith.
Pray that we would grow in love, compassion, and dedication for our church family.
Pray that our church would continue to grow in courage and resolve to contend for God’s mission for His kingdom in the broader San Antonio community.
Pray that we would stay alert, continually seeking the Lord in prayer, and living sacrificially to His worship and to the service of His kingdom.
Prayer
Lord, we thank You for our church family, for bringing together a community of people dedicated to Your mission and to knowing You better. Help us to grow in love for Your church. We pray that You would bless us and make us worthy of Your calling, so that we may lead others to know, love, and trust in You. Help us to be a blessing to our neighbors in San Antonio, contending for the cause of Your name in our city. Help us to stay alert, to pray without ceasing, so that we may always be ready for whatever You call us to.
Amen.
