Study taking place September 13th through October 10th.

Each month, our Prayer Ministry Team offers a specific prayer focus, working under the belief that communal prayer is a powerful and world-changing exercise.

September Prayer Focus
September is a month of reflection and remembrance. This year is the 25th anniversary of September 11th and as a praying church we would like to ask all members to focus on prayerful remembrance and reflection on the events of 9/11/2001. We ask you to join us in praying for the following:

This month, let’s join in praying for the following:

• Humbling ourselves — 2 Chronicles 7:14: “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
• Praying for our leaders — 1 Timothy 2:1–4: “I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people—for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.”
• Praying for our enemies — Matthew 5:43–45: “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.”
• Protection for our servicemen and women & first responders — Psalm 121:7: “The LORD will keep you from all harm-he will watch over your life.”
• Comfort for those who mourn lost family members & friends — Psalm 147:3: “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.”
• Those who sacrifice to keep us safe — John 15:13: “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.”
• Our Nation — Proverbs 14:34: “Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin condemns any people.”
• Strength to forgive — Mark 11:25: “And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”
• Preservation of peace — Psalm 34:14: “Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.”
• Preservation of freedom — 2 Corinthians 3:17: “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”
