Let’s PRAY!


“This phrase, ‘Yet once more,’ indicates the removal of things that are shaken--that is, things that have been made--in order that the things that cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that CANNOT be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire.” Hebrews 12:27-29


Precious Lord Jesus, We bow before You with adoration and gratitude in our hearts.   In a world that ignores You, we Your people, bow before the throne of grace.  Our hearts are heavy for the lost!  At this time of year we are reminded to be thankful in all circumstances.   With humble hearts our petition is for the power of the Holy Spirit to fall upon the unrepentant and fallen away.  We petition, on their behalf, the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ be revealed and remembered. ALL will repent and return to You 'with reverence and awe’.  We beg You to show mercy and grace on our Nation.  I Love You Father God, Amen
