June 10th, 2010 ~ Pray for One Another

Are you there for those who need prayer?

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:

"Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed"

James 5:16

All throughout Scripture, we see that God's system operates on the principle of sowing and reaping. If you sow blessing and mercy into the lives of others, that's what you'll reap in your life in return. The same thing happens when you pray for one another. There's a spiritual dynamic at play when you get your mind off yourself and onto others.

You're sowing a seed so that God can do something in your own life.

Selah people' and friends is there someone in your life you can pray for? Maybe it's a friend or a family member in need. They don't have to be present, you can pray for them as you go about your day or even driving in your car on the way to work. Remember, when you pray for others, God will make sure someone is praying for you. We do this in many ways in our church and community. It my come from a call or text message. Perhaps we send it out via email to all our prayer warriors or we put the name in our Bits N Pieces' or lift up each name on Sunday during worship. It's that connection of faith that opens the door for God to move mightily on your behalf. Pray for each other as God's word demands!

OUR PRAYER FOR TODAY:

"Heavenly Father, thank You for another day to be used by You. I choose to pray for the people in my life as You have commanded. Direct my thoughts and prayers today so that I can be a blessing to others and honor You in everything I do. In Jesus' Name. Amen."

Your brother in Christ,

Patrick
