PRAY COURAGEOUSLY

Praying Courageously

Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:16

Last night we started our five weeks of Live Courageously conferences at America’s Keswick and we are so excited to see what God is going to do this summer. I want to remind you that you are welcome to come join us each morning (Monday-Thursday) at 9:30 AM and evening (Sunday – Thursday) at 7:00 PM.

This week Pastor Lloyd Pulley from Calvary Chapel Old Bridge will be sharing in the evening sessions, and Dr. Todd Williams, President of Cairn University will be sharing in the mornings. You can watch live each day by visiting www.americaskeswick.org or go back and watch the archives of each session.

This summer at our Morning Prayer times, we are challenging our friends and partners to PRAY COURAGROUSLY. When I was praying for a verse for our printed guide, the Holy Spirit reminded me of Hebrews 4:16. When I read the word “boldly” in the verse, I went to my online Greek dictionary and was excited to learn that the word means “with courage!” How cool is that.

For four mornings we will be PRAYING COURAGOUSLY and would love for you to join us:

Monday – Praying Courageously for our Families
Tuesday – Praying Courageously for our Pastors
Wednesday – Praying Courageously for our Nation
Thursday – Praying Courageously for the ministry of Addiction Recovery

I am reading a brand new book on prayer tied in with the soon to be released movie, WAR ROOM. Two quotes jumped off the page:

Every generation needs courageous believers who will trust God at His Word and pick up the baton of intercession, continuing the powerful legacy of faithfully standing in the gap and seeking His heart in prayer.

No church program, religious event, political effort, or humanitarian cause can trump the awesome power of what God can do in response to the prayers of His people.
