United States of America

Okay, so it isn't Monday so I am either early with the post or late, but any event I figured we would pray for the USA. Seeing that we have a huge election coming up on November 4th it would be good to pray for our own country.

Pray for:

• the next president and all the leaders of the government. Pray that they may have wisdom in making tough decisions as well as the support of the country.
• the churches and church leaders that they may be able to use the blessing of being in the USA to bless and reach out to those in their communities as well as around the world.
• the jr. high and high school students. Pray for the Christians to bold in sharing their faith and inviting others to church. Pray for the non-Christians to begin to see their need for a savior and that they would see in Jesus everything they need.
• those who are sick. Pray that they may be healed, but that God's will be done
• anything else you can think of, that needs prayer.
  

Mission Mondays

Last week we had many different prayer stations that all focused around the Lord's Prayer. One part of the Lord's Prayer is "your kingdom come, your will be done" which is such a vital part to that prayer. In praying those words we are asking that God's kingdom be established here on Earth and it is every day. God's kingdom comes to Earth whenever the gospel is proclaimed and people come to know Jesus Christ as their savior. In keeping with the Lord's Prayer I am going to post on Mondays a country that we can be praying for throughout the week. We will pray for many different aspects of the country, but most importantly we will be praying for the salvation of the people living world wide.

I will post a country tomorrow, but for today, pray through the Lord's Prayer and focus on every word. You can find the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6:9-13.
