Lord Jesus give us grace that we will do the works that You did when you walked this earth. We are your body here and now. By Your grace we will act boldly so that in Your name we will feed not just 5,000 but millions of children, women and men. In Your name we will house those living in squalor. In Your name we will heal the sick through clinics and medical missions. As You raised the son of a widow in Nain, we will reduce infant mortality of the poor. In Your name we will release prisoners in the countries we serve. Holy Spirit grant us a bold faith so that we can do more than we can ask for or imagine in Jesus’ Holy Name we pray.

Amen

"Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it."
John 14:12-14 (NIV)

June 30 - July 6, 2013

Oh, Lord our God, thank You for pouring out Your Spirit over our country that we may worship and adore You freely, that we may honor You publicly and share of Your wonders openly. We thank You and glorify You for the freedoms You have entrusted to us. Each freedom has come with a price, a price Your Son paid once and for all. We ask You to forgive us our sins; empty us of such effects. Once again, pour Your Spirit of boldness into our beings that we may win over the souls of those in our states and cities for Your glory. Fill us liberally with Your Holy Spirit until overflowing love spills out wherever You lead us. Let the fruit of Your Spirit bloom and refresh us daily and through us let the lost also be nourished by the fruit of Your Spirit, all in the name of our precious Lord Jesus.

“Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”
2 Corinthians 3:17(ESV)

March 24 - March 30, 2013

Lord Jesus, how do I even begin to thank You for choosing to lay Your life down for me? I don’t know that I can ever truly understand or appreciate the type of love that would motivate this type of action. Lord as I consider Your Passion this Easter season; as I consider the pain of the cross, may it help me to understand the purpose of the cross and that it would cause me to draw closer to You and to love people more. Lord, thank You for loving me enough to die such a horrible death for and because of me. This I pray in Your precious name.

Amen


"The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life… 
No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord…"
