"I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe." Ephesians 1:18-19 (NIV)
"Like art, like music, like so many other disciplines, prayer can only be appreciated when you actually spend time in it. Spending time with the Master will elevate your thinking. The more you pray, the more will be revealed. You will understand. You will smile and nod your head as you identify with others who fight long battles and find great joy on their knees." Joni Eareckson Tada
God, our everywhere-present, all-powerful, and infinitely wise King, we pray …
- That your guidance in this spiritual growth campaign will deepen our church's faith and prayer life.
- That each participant in the campaign would have a renewed desire to pursue spiritual habits in his or her life.
- That each person in our church will be challenged to grow spiritually and experience your plan for living a transformed life.
- That all participants will reflect on your purposes for their lives and act on what the Holy Spirit has revealed to them.
- That all participants would grow in their love for you - with all their heart, soul, and mind.
- That the congregational reading of The Purpose Driven Life will be a grace-filled turning point for the maturity of our members.
- That all participants would surrender fully to doing their part to fulfill the Great Commission and the Great Commandment in their generation.
