DAY 3 - Pray for your Church
Minister Anita Davis
Word of Faith
Southfield, MI
Hello and welcome to day 3 of 30 days of prayer. Today we want to pray for
the church. You want to pray that the church experiences Acts 9, verse 31. The
Amplified version says, “So the church throughout Judea and Galilee and Samaria
enjoyed peace [without persecution], being built up [in wisdom, virtue, and faith];
and walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort and encouragement of the
Holy Spirit, it continued to grow [in numbers].” The church is all of us as a body of
believers. Pray that we experience peace free from persecution and unhindered
by any government. Pray that we are built up in wisdom, power and faith - that
we walk in the fear of the Lord and that we grow in numbers. This is something
that you should pray for your local church as well. You also want to pray that your
church fulfills its purpose in your state, city and neighborhood - that you are a
100% tithing church, where everyone serves in some capacity to support the work
of the ministry. Pray for the success of the various ministries and programs at your
church. Pray that your church not only meets its budget, but has an abundance of
money and resources to do everything that you are called to do. Pray for unity in
your church. You know what your church needs. Pray about that thing. Now during
this time, you are praying with a number of our church families across the country
and the world. You want to pray for them too – like Christian Center in Varna,
Bulgaria. They need gifted, love-filled, and Holy Spirit led volunteers to help run
with the vision that God has for them. The same can be true of a number of our
churches, right? And then pray for Word of Faith, Toronto that the government
pulls back on the restrictions that are hindering the church and that believers all
over Canada will find their way back to church buildings again. Pray for Faith4Life
in Nairobi, Kenya and Dallas that they possess their own property. These are just
some of the needs that we can pray for right now. There’s no better time. Let’s get
going. Pray for the church.
