Devoted to Prayer, Communion and Q&A Meeting session – August 23, 5:30 P.M.
Make sure to attend this month’s Devoted to Prayer! In addition to our normal times of fellowship over a meal and congregational prayer, we will also observe Communion and have a special Q&A time with lay elder candidates, Dave & Susan Jodry. Don’t miss all of these vital functions of our church, and please sign up ahead of time so we know whom to expect! The dinner theme is breakfast. Biscuits and gravy and drinks will be provided. Please -> RSVP Here <-, and if prompted, bring a breakfast dish, protein, or dessert to share. Nursery (ages 0–3) and childcare (ages 4–5) will be available during the prayer time.
Prayer is not getting a man’s will done on earth; it is getting God’s will done in heaven.
PRAY, On it. Over it. Through it.
During the PRAYER portion of the service, nursery is available for ages 0-3 and childcare for ages 4-5.
Come & join in a night of prayer, together – “…lifting up holy hands,…without doubting.” 1 Timothy 2:8 KJV
See pastor Matthew Carnagua for more information.
– PRAY –
“Practice of supplication” (Webster’s 1828)…simply talking with the Lord.
From Frequent Terms Christians Use: “Pray: (Philippians 4:6-7; 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18; John 17; Matthew 6:9-13; Romans 8:26) To talk with God. People in every religion pray, but for those in God’s family, we can converse with God through faith in Jesus. Jesus prayed for his followers, John 17, and taught them how to pray, the Lord’s Prayer, Matthew 6. The Holy Spirit helps us pray when we don’t have the words.”
Our Victory in Christ – ’26 In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; 27 and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.’ Romans 8:26-27 NASB
God wants to use you, a willing, submissive vessel of service. Praying for others is a service to God. Trust & obey Him. Keep relating to others in practical, simple, and natural ways. Know them. Be approving, respecting their precious time & situation.
