An Invitation to Pray: Week 2

Monday, April 8, 2024An Invitation to Pray
As we journey through the sacred season between Easter and Pentecost, let us come together, Christians united in faith, to embrace the power of collective prayer. Just as the early disciples gathered in one accord, let us lift our hearts and voices in harmony, seeking the guidance and blessings of the Holy Spirit. In this second week of our initiative, let us deepen our commitment to intercede for our communities, nations, and the world at large. Together, let us tap into the limitless wellspring of divine grace, believing that through our unified prayers, miracles can unfold, hearts can be transformed, and hope can be restored. Let us not underestimate the impact of our collective supplications, for in unity, our prayers resonate with greater resonance before the throne of God. Join us in this sacred endeavor, as we strive to be vessels of love, peace, and healing in a world yearning for divine intervention.
WEEK TWO: Fruitfulness
April 7th - 13th
- Pray that every disciple of Jesus will deepen their connection with Him. He is the wellspring of our productivity, and as we remain in Him, we'll gain insight into His desires, pray in alignment with His plans, and receive what we seek.
-
Let's lift up individuals by name whom we sense might be called to the ministry of mobilization. Pray for opportunities to extend invitations to explore this potential calling.
-
Pray for stronger bonds within the Simply Mobilizing family, so that we may be more closely knit together in support and encouragement.
