We Call, He Answers


“I call with all my heart; answer me, Lord, and I will obey your decrees… May my cry come before you, Lord; give me understanding according to your word…I call on the Lord in my distress, and he answers me.” (Psalm 119:145, 169 & 120:1)

The book of Psalm is a great guide for prayer. David has given us ways to approach God in all situations. No matter what we are going through or the stresses we experience, we can call upon the Lord and He will answer us!

Dear God, Our Faithful Counselor,

We call upon you and trust you will answer us. We desire to obey your word; we need understanding as we obey your commands and as we walk in your will. We know that your will for each child that attends on Sunday morning is to know you personally, to feel loved by you, to experience your peace. Thank you for each child that you have given us to shepherd on Sunday morning. We ask for more Shepherds to come forward. Your word instructs us to pray without ceasing; the one who persists in prayer will realize answers. We ask for workers to attend to your harvest. Thank you for the eight who have come forward in this last week! We are blessed! You are answering! You are faithful! We continue to ask until each position is filled. We want your heart, your will, your ways!

In Jesus Name,
Amen
