Prayers of Resurrection Expectation Part 2

The first week of Prayers of Resurrection Expectation was a huge success! I organized the five minute prayer time into five chunks. At the beginning of each minute I started a timer on my phone and then said a quick prayer. The remainder of the minute was open to anyone to say a quick prayer on that topic. Of course, we were all praying quietly for the entire minute and God hears those prayers, too!

Here is this week's schedule so that you can join the prayer fest.

Minute 1: Thank you, dear God, for creating the church, where we can grow in our understanding of Your love for us.

Minute 2: Lord, help our church leaders be able to discern Your direction for our church and ministries.

Minute 3: Lord, we pray specifically for the church's ministry to children.

Minute 4: Lord, we ask that many who do not know You would come to the Easter Egg Hunt (or an upcoming program at your church) and be drawn to You. 

Minute 5: Lord, we trust in You to do things in and through our church that are so great, we could not even imagine them right now, as Your word states in Habakkuk 1:5 "For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told."

I also provided a few topics for prayer throughout the week.

• Pray for revival within the church.
• Pray that we proclaim Good News to those who are lost.
• Pray that we are welcoming to the new people that God is sending to join our church family.

Let's continue to pray and trust that God is listening and working!
