Join Us in Prayer for our Nation, our Leaders and Topics of
Concern for the week of 9/18/15 - 9/24/15
Powerful Proclamation
In
Genesis 18, Abraham showed courage in the way he approached the Lord. He
continued pressing God to save Sodom for the sake of any righteous living in
the land. In today’s passage, Peter and John prayed for courage as they shared
the good news of Christ. After Jesus’ crucifixion, speaking about Him was
dangerous, but the apostles asked God to help them overcome their fears and
proclaim His name.
|
Grant to your servants to continue to speak
your word with all boldness.
Acts 4:29
|
Many
Christians in modern times are being persecuted for sharing about the Lord.
Even believers in America are coming under fire, yet they are courageously
defending their faith.
Notice the theme of courage. God wants you to approach Him with courage and ask for boldness to spread His truth and love. Ask the Lord, as the apostles did, to share with confidence. “For the word of God is living and active.” (Hebrews 4:12) Pray for the words that come out of your mouth to accomplish His purposes (Isaiah 55:11). Then intercede for those Christians who hold offices in national government to have wisdom and discernment about when and to whom they speak the name of Jesus.

Prayer Alert - Eleven
Dead In Floods, Bus Crash And Wildfires
Nearly a dozen
people have died in three different events across the nation.
At least eight people are confirmed
dead and five more missing after two cars were caught in a flash flood along
the Utah-Arizona border. Several vehicles were reportedly swept into waterways
after heavy rains hit the area late Monday afternoon. The victims included
women and small children, all from the Colorado City, Arizona and Hildale,
Utah, area.

get out of her house. Now at 67,000 acres, the fires are only 15 percent
contained. (Sources: USA Today, CNN)
As the Lord leads, please pray:
- For the families of those killed in the bus crash, flooding and wildfires
- For investigators as they determine the cause of the bus crash
- For fire crews as they battle high temperatures and wind in battling the California wildfires
