Father God, Creator of the entire universe and everything that dwells in it, gently remind me of Your awesome power and strength so that I may rest in You. Let no fear of rejection enter my consciousness; but rather, Your loving grace come over me as I lean on Your faithful and dependable support. For Your strength is my joy, and I rejoice in it. I ask this in Your Son’s Heavenly name, through the power of Your Holy Spirit.

Amen


“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28-30 (NIV)

July 7 - 13, 2013

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)
