As we prepare for our corporate gathering on Sunday, Sept. 15, I want to encourage you to pray for our time of worship. Along with many of you, I sensed an incredible level of excitement connected to the grace and love of God this past Sunday. Let’s continue to call out to God and ask Him to instill within us a passion for His glory and a gratefulness for His grace that goes beyond what we currently possess.
Prayer Guide: Sept 15, 2019 – Matthew 9:9-13
1. Spend time thanking the Sovereign and Merciful God for His heart for sinners. Praise Jesus for the great love with which He loved us – a love that led to His humiliation, suffering, and death.
2. As God to increase our passion for His glory and our pursuit of relational connection with Jesus. Pray that we would find our greatest satisfaction in Jesus and what He has accomplished for us.
3. Ask for God to help you in your battle against the things of the world. Ask Him for grace to host fast against the temptations that come your way.
4. Pray for wisdom and courage to be intentional about sharing the gospel, and that we would be committed to reaching at least one person with the gospel before the end of the year.
5. Thank God for the security and joy that we have knowing that Jesus has secured our eternal salvation. Praise God that He will finish the work that He began in us.
6. Ask God to make you humble and dependent on Him.
7. Pray that more and more people would find a church home at Trinity Baptist and that God would build up the Body of Christ as people exercise their spiritual gifts.
8. Ask God to graciously save people this weekend during our worship services.
