Dear Praying Friends, As we approach another summer weekend,perhaps you are planning a camping trip or a barbeque. It is Father’s Day weekend so let’s lift up fathers everywhere. Let’s continue to ask God to bring “redemption” to every hurting place. He has told us to continually pray for His Kingdom to come and His will to be done. I encourage you to take some time to rest this weekend, but to remain prayerful in your rest. Consider reviewing some of the posts from this past week and praying from those prompts again. Let’s worship Him today and let’s keep asking God to help us to be tenderhearted and compassionate. And thank you for your continued prayers for nation and neighbor. I also invite you to join me in continued prayer with this month’s theme:
SHOW US YOUR GLORY, LORD! HELP US TO THRIVE IN 2025 AND HELP US TO STAY CLOSE TO YOU IN THESE BUSY SUMMER DAYS!
Friday, June 13, 2025: A scripture about redemption: 1 Corinthians 1:30
Prayer Pointer: Compassion costs. It is easy enough to argue, criticize, and condemn, but redemption is costly, and comfort draws from the deep. Brains can argue, but it takes heart to comfort. – Samuel Chadwick
Prayer Fuel: Thank You Lord for being my wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption. Help me, help my brothers and sisters everywhere to walk as Your redeemed. (add your own prayers) SHOW US YOUR GLORY, LORD! HELP US TO THRIVE IN 2025 AND HELP US TO STAY CLOSE TO YOU IN THESE BUSY SUMMER DAYS!
Think/Journal/Apply: In yesterday’s post we asked “What is your redemption story?” How do you see God continuing to write that story today?
As You Have Time: Pray for your CITY and Transformation for cities. Peaceful Communities: Lord, as we pray for our own communities, we also pray for communities where there is much unrest. Please guide those who govern every community with wise counsel so that they will respond as You desire. Please protect our communities from the plans of the evil one. Amen.
Worship Song for Today: God of This City
SHOW US YOUR GLORY, LORD! HELP US TO THRIVE IN 2025 AND HELP US TO STAY CLOSE TO YOU IN THESE BUSY SUMMER DAYS!
