Dear Heavenly Father,
I thank you Lord for the chance to be blessed with today's technology, using it for your glory. I thank you for the opportunity to use this blog, with the capability to publish posts in advance so that I don't have to say a certain thing at that moment in time.
This prayer I bring to you I lift up my sister in Christ, Jenny, for she will be teaching Sunday School. In all that she has gone through during the past couple of years in which You have molded her, I pray that she would be willing to give it all to you. Letting go of any fears she may have about leading a group, and leaning on your strength Lord because there is only so much we can do on our own. I pray that she would have a willing hear to be used as an instrument to get your message across because once we start teaching and relying on ourselves we start bringing glory to ourselves.
I also lift up a fellow brother in Christ, Simon, who has been feeling burdened. Lord you know what it is that is occupying his mind and although we know it in our heads that you are sovereign, forgive us for not fully believing that as we worry about things in life. I pray that you would give strength and encouragement to Simon whatever way possible and that he would feel refreshed because your Spirit is upon him.
Lord I want to lift up the youth on sunday who will hear the second part of the Foundations series and that they would be encouraged to read your word and seek to hold precious the words you have spoken in the Bible. I pray for open eyes so that they may see your glory, open ears that they would hear and open hearts that they may obey what they hear.
In Jesus name,
Amen
We do not expect people to be deeply moved by what it not unusual... If we had a keen vision and feeling of all ordinary human life it would be like hearing the grass grow and the squirrel's heart beat, and we should die of that roar which is on the other side of silence.
