Weekly Prayer

4/15/24

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 1:3

Spend some time this week praising our Heavenly Father for the grace and peace that He offers to us every minute of every day. Thank Him for covering us in Jesus' righteousness and giving us the power to live for Him and to be a witness for Him through the power of the Holy Spirit.

(Copied from the International Mission Board’s Daily Prayer Guide)

Peoples of the Konkan Coast, India
 
Pray for wisdom and boldness for local harvest workers in South Asia as they encourage believers in house churches who are being threatened to stop worshiping Jesus. Many of these believers are very poor and are dependent upon rice and bean rations from the government. Area leaders have visited the homes of the church members, telling them that if they continue worshiping Jesus, their food rations will be taken away. Pray that the Lord will meet every need for this group of believers, despite persecution!
 
 
 

Weekly Prayer for Our Nation

 “I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counselors as at the beginning. Afterward you shall be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city.” Isaiah 1:26

It is always important to pray for our courts and our nation’s judges, but never has it been more important to do so than today. At this time, as we are praying for a pro-life ruling to come down from the Supreme Court, we should remember and ask God for the promises of Isaiah 1:26.

In Jesus’ name, we lift Chief Justice John Roberts up to you, Father. Use him to defend the unborn and restore life to our nation. Let all his decisions be fair and not influenced by any unholy or personal preferences. Let him rule in every decision as You desire him to rule. We ask for protection for him, all the Justices and their families from those who side with evil intent through intimidation and protests. Restore the judges as at first, Lord, according to Your Word. We give you all glory and praise, Amen.
