Bonus
Thank you for joining us for 40 Days of Prayer. We began this 40-day journey talking about Mark’s words of urgency at the beginning of His Gospel account, “The beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God… make ready the way of the Lord, make His paths straight” (Mark 1:1,3). We turn to Jesus, make His paths straight, and obey His commands because time is short for us to get the message to those who have not yet believed the Gospel message.
“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone... Therefore be on the alert, for you do not know which day your Lord is coming” (Matthew 24:36, 42).
STILL MUCH TO DO
The church of the Lord Jesus Christ still has much to do in Kingdom advance and Gospel proclamation. We want our church to be a full-fledged participant in this exciting assignment!
PRAY…
Dear Jesus, I will never ever get over the fact that You took my place on the cross and paid for my sins in full with Your own precious blood! Thank you! I renew my surrender to You today, this moment! I am Yours to be used in whatever way You desire. Please stir in our church the passionate zeal of the young David when he overheard Goliath’s taunting challenges to the armies of Israel; transform us through broken-hearted prayer and fasting like that of Nehemiah and Hannah; shape us into bold, fearless messengers of truth like Esther, Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego; and give us a heart for the untouched, unreached, unsaved world like the Apostle Paul. Jesus, I believe that with You all things are possible! So, please, work Your miraculous work in me and in my church, I ask in Your Everlasting Name, and for Your Eternal glory, Amen.
