Monthly Prayer Guide

The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound… to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit; that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he may be glorified. They shall build up the ancient ruins; they shall raise up the former devastations; they shall repair the ruined cities, the devastations of many generations. – Isaiah 61:1-4

Lord, let this prayer be true of us, our families, and our communities. We approach Your throne with confidence asking…

• Make us and our churches a place of stability and influence.
• Give us strong roots of love and unity that withstands any storm.
• Put the beauty of Jesus at the center of our lives and churches.

… That you would restore the devastation in our community.

In the mighty name of Jesus, Amen!
