Night Prayer
And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
Inspiration
Prayer groups are extremely important for us as individuals and as a community. Through prayer, the impossible is made possible and our daily battles are fought on higher ground. As spiritual friends, we comfort one another through struggles, celebrate joys and bring others to know Christ, our Lord and Savior. Gathering for prayer strengthens our faith and community with one another.
Prayer
Dear Lord, Guide us to become more intentional about praying together with our brothers and sisters in Christ. We ask your blessing to become stronger spiritually as individuals and as a community. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
Night Prayer
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
Inspiration
We despise the thought of a pile of dirty dishes in the sink. The outside is easy to clean; it's the caked-up residue on the inside that's so difficult to remove. Jesus compares the scribes and Pharisees with dishes that have been wiped clean on the outside while dirty inside. The Pharisees took exceptional care of their outward appearance and neglected their inward spirits. We are guilty of allowing our hearts to be left filthy as well. We look and act as we should while our souls are full of darkness. We must continue to converse with the Holy Spirit daily and trust His guidance to cleanse our sinful nature.
Prayer
Dear God, Please forgive our sinful nature. We yearn for cleansing from within, so we are genuine witnesses to Your name. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
