Prayer Topic, "Circle of Blessing"


Join Us in Prayer for our Nation, our Leaders and Topics of Concern for the week of 2/27/15 - 3/5/15

 

 Circle of Blessing

Almost 500 years ago, Martin Luther wrote, “To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing.” Author Robert Wolgemuth continues this thought: “Prayer is the glue that affixes your heart to your Heavenly Father.” It is profound reverence for God, the fear of the Lord, which causes you to hate the things that God hates and love the things that He loves…to walk in holiness.

Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord, who walks in his ways!
Psalm 128:1

Paul exhorted the Ephesians to “look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil.” (Ephesians 5:15-16) Walking in His ways puts the capital “W” in worship. Your actions reflect His character. Picture this wonderful circle of blessing: prayer brings you to deeper fellowship with God, leading to a loving fear of Him, giving you the wisdom of God, motivating you to obedience, manifesting itself in your praise to Him, involving you in activities that are eternally important, and giving Him glory and you the blessing.

God places amazing significance on your prayers. Do not be disheartened as you intercede for this nation and its leaders. God will work for good and bless those who fear Him.

Prayer Topic, "Praise His Majesty"


Join Us in Prayer for our Nation, our Leaders and Topics of Concern for the week of 2/20/15 - 2/26/15

 

 

Praise His Majesty

King David created patterns of worship according to the directions he received from the Lord. His majestic psalms are the masterpiece of spiritual literature. David’s poetic genius has been quoted often through the years. His psalms of praise, worship and meditation obviously are a reflection of his incredible love for his Heavenly Father.

Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker!
Psalm 95:6

The Ark of the Covenant was a wooden chest made to God’s specifications. The Hebrew term for the lid of the Ark is sometimes translated “the mercy seat,” which represented both God’s heavenly throne and His purpose to cleanse His people of their sins. When David rescued the Ark and brought it to Jerusalem, he exchanged his royal attire for a simple priest’s robe. By removing the pride of his status as king, David humbly acknowledged how unworthy he was to even stand before the Lord. David then danced and worshipped the King of Kings with all of his might.

Remember that God’s presence surrounds you everywhere. Take opportunities each day to stop and praise Him for who He is. Pray also that America’s leaders would set aside any pride and worship the majesty of your only true King.

Prayer Topic, "Yay God!"


Join Us in Prayer for our Nation, our Leaders and Topics of Concern for the week of 2/13/15 - 2/19/15

 

 

Yay God!

Fans go all out at football games, wearing the team color, painting their faces and roaring as a unit at a touchdown. Concertgoers raise their hands and swoon at rock stars. Supporters clap, cheer and throw confetti for leading politicians. So why not unite hearts, souls and minds, raise voices and cheer for the lover of souls, the giver of good things, the creator of the universe, the all-powerful glorious one, the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end?

O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will declare your praise.
Psalm 51:15

King David was eager to worship. “I was glad when they said to me, ‘Let us go to the house of the Lord!’” (Psalm 122:1) And he had so much enthusiasm, dancing before the Lord when the ark returned to Jerusalem, that his wife was embarrassed by his behavior (II Samuel 6:14-16).

Football games and concerts are fun. Political events are important. But a bigger priority is to worship God. Why not praise Him with the enthusiasm of a Super Bowl fan, the adoration of music enthusiast, and the zeal of a political supporter? Pray for this nation to recognize the awesomeness of God and give Him the praise due to His name.

Prayer Topic, "Worship = Serving"


Join Us in Prayer for our Nation, our Leaders and Topics of Concern for the week of 2/6/15 – 2/12/15

 

 

Worship = Serving

Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Mariota has been awarded for his on-the-field accomplishments. Yet it is the college football star’s godly character that is most noteworthy. In fact, Marcus’ Oregon teammates nicknamed him “St. Mark” as they watched him make weekly unannounced visits to the Boys and Girls Club and daily stops to pass out food and water to the homeless. Marcus says, “With Christ’s power, we are able to pursue and play for His glory. We want to go out and show the world that Christ lives.”

Posterity shall serve him; it shall be told of the Lord to the coming generation.
Psalm 22:30

One of the Greek words for worship is “latreuo.” The root meaning of the word reveals that worship involves service rendered to God. Worship is not merely an attitude. It involves specific acts according to His requirements. It’s more than giving praise. The Lord’s heart is blessed when you lay aside your personal desires and ambitions and serve others with humility and love.

Remember that as you faithfully pray for America’s leaders, you are worshipping God. Thank the Lord each day for the privilege to show the world that Christ lives by praying for those who serve this country.
