Father, You’ve put on my heart over this last week to intercede for every member of this group, as well as those needs which You have placed in their heart. I ask You, Father, to keep Your wall built around each person; that no areas of the wall will become weakened by fatigue, discouragement, anxiety, or even satanic attack. May this group be strong in the Lord, trusting You in all things and at all times. May we go about the Father’s business with expectation of joy in what doors You will open for us. May we join together in love for You, Abba, and in love for each other. May You anoint each person within this group with a burning desire to share the gospel, to heal the sick, to make disciples! May we be obedient to every command You instruct us to do. May we not grow weary in doing good and allow Your joy to be our strength. Father, it is a privilege to link arms with my fellow brothers and sisters on this site. Bless each one. In Jesus’s name, Amen.
Mat 6:2 T4T So, whenever you give something to the poor, do not announce it as people announce something that they want other people to know about by playing a fanfare on a trumpet [MET]. That is what the hypocrites do ◄in the synagogues/in the Jewish meeting places► and on the main roads in order that people might see what they do and praise them. Keep this in mind: People praise those hypocrites, but that is the only reward they will receive!
@bethany I find this true all over the world even in children as young as7 to No hope. There is no need of psychiatrists. There is the need for the body of Christ to pray and fast and do battle in the heavenly. Stand up and be the body of Christ. Sounds like the btj workers are on it.
There is a crisis among young people in China - suicide rates are among the highest they have ever been.
But in their time of greatest need, the Gospel is providing hope where communism has failed them.
ON TRUE PRAYER
“True prayer is an approach of the soul by the Spirit of God to the throne of God. It is not the utterance of words, it is not alone the feeling of desires, but it is the advance of the desires to God, the spiritual approach of our nature towards the Lord our God. True prayer is not a mere mental exercise, nor a vocal performance, but it is deeper far than that-it is spiritual commerce with the Creator of heaven and earth. God is a Spirit unseen of mortal eye, and only to be perceived by the inner man; our spirit within us, begotten by the Holy Ghost at our regeneration, discerns the Great Spirit, communes with him, prefers to him its requests, and receives from him answers of peace. It is a spiritual business from beginning to end; and its aim and object end not with man, but reach to God himself.”
~Charles Spurgeon
Hebrews 13:20 - 21
20)Now may the God of peace [the source of serenity and spiritual well-being] who brought up from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood that sealed and ratified the eternal covenant, 21)equip you with every good thing to carry out His will and strengthen you [making you complete and perfect as you ought to be], accomplishing in us that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
