Dear Praying Friends~It is hard to believe that we are almost at the end of the first month of 2024. As we continue forward, I know that the times we live in are difficult. The “wars and rumors of wars” continue to press in on our hearts. I think we’d all agree that the world is a very difficult place right now. In these chaotic times, I am grateful that God does not change. (Hebrews 13:8, Malachi 3:6) Let’s finish out this month praying: SHOW US YOUR GLORY, LORD…as WE WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH! This post will be shorter as we finish out January! Let’s pray on, Saints!~Gina
Monday, January 29, 2024: Read Psalm 31:1-8
Prayer Pointer: Psalm 31 is a psalm of David and begins in a similar way to many of his other psalms – with a declaration of trust in God in a time of trouble. We do not know the precise nature or time of the trouble, other than it severely afflicted David and made him despair of life. Nevertheless, David proclaimed his trust in the LORD. ~Enduring Word Bible Commentary
Prayer “Fuel”: Lord, today I come to give You the glory due to Your Name. I worship You as the Great God, exalted over all! Lord, in this world filled with trouble I am trusting You as my refuge and strong fortress. When the “bad news” of this world bombards my mind and heart, help me to focus on the “Good News” that You are Lord. (add your own prayers) SHOW US YOUR GLORY, LORD…as WE WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH!

Wednesday, January 31, 2024: Read Psalm 31:17-24
Prayer Pointer: However great David’s troubles were, his trust in God was even greater. He took careful inventory of his crisis but would not dwell on it. He understood that Yahweh was his God (You are my God) and therefore greater than all his trouble. ~Enduring Word Bible Commentary
Prayer “Fuel”: Lord, today I come to give You the glory due to Your Name. I worship You as the Great God, exalted over all! Thank You for the good things You give me because I take refuge in You. (v. 19) Thank you for showing me the wonders of Your love and for hearing my cries for help. (vv. 21,22) (add your own prayers) SHOW US YOUR GLORY, LORD…as WE WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH!
