Yesterday was the National Day of Prayer-and it rained real bad, I'm not entirely sure what that means if God sends rain on our National Day of Prayer. However, last night our church had a prayer service for whoever wanted to come and pray for our nation and other topics.
We had Brothers Forever come and lead our service with some vocalized style music, which the church loved. We had different people come up in between songs and pray for different topics.
Tony (a man of God) prayed for our president, that God would guide him, and he would listen and be productive for our nation as the leader. Tony also prayed for our government officials from the Executive to the Judicial we prayed for congressmen and Governors and Senators and local officials.
Pastor Bob and his wife Sharon prayed for the families of American and the husbands and wives of our country and the children, and the teenagers of this nation.
Donna prayed for social issues like Abortion and Homosexuality that the church would not be condemning to these movements but standing firm (in the love of Christ) and be against them.
Pastor Chad prayed for our economy and the job loss of our nation-we prayed for men and women and the families that have lost their jobs and need help from the church, and we prayed that God would bless them and comfort the hurting people.
I prayed for the Church that she would rise up and be the bride of Christ, I prayed that we would no longer live inside of four walls that we find comfort in but that we would do like my friend steven and go and live out our faith in a big impacting way. For his glory and not for our own.
Please don't let our prayers for each other and for this nation be only on a National Day of Prayer. May we the church, rise and commit ourselves to one another. Amen and Amen
