Sunday July 13 – Preparation for worship/ Prayer for our pastors

Come and worship

Read Psalm 40:1- 11
I delight to do Your will, O my God; Your law is within my heart.
I have told the glad news of deliverance in the great congregation;
I have not hidden Your deliverance within my heart; I have spoken of Your faithfulness and Your salvation… vv. 8-10a

We praise you today Lord for Your mercy in guiding us, and for Your plans that are perfect. We humbly come to you today to worship You.

Confession

Ask the Lord to show you anything that has been allowed to remain in your life or in your heart that may hinder you from entering fully into worship in the gathering today.

Ask God

For health and safety for them and their families. Pray against the strategies of the enemy that seek to keep them from being available and focused on the ministry the Lord has given them.
For the presence of His Spirit in their homes and marriages, giving unity, strength, forgiveness, and joy.

Prayer for Imprint ministry

Ask the Lord to continue to raise up and develop leadership for our growing church- both volunteer and staff leadership.
Pray for continuing church health, growth in faith and mission, and evidence of the work of the Spirit in and through us.

Growing vision and clarity for our future, especially in areas of generosity and the desire to plant a church in the future.
