Day 3, August 27: Getting the body moving – praying for our church

Notes:

Your church is not perfect. No church is. Churches include forgiven sinners just like you and me. Now is not the time to give up on the body of Christ. Now is the time to pray for the body of Christ. Set your book aside for just a moment and take time to pray for your church. Pray that the members of your church will become devoted Great Commission Christians. You might take five minutes to pray for your church, or you might take thirty minutes. Regardless, pray that your church will move from an inward focus to an outward focus. Like the first church in Jerusalem, may the power of God become a reality in your church: After this prayer, the meeting place shook, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit. Then they preached the word of God with boldness” (Acts 4:31).
