Circle Up and Pray...

As we contemplate the Jericho prayers we are called to Circle around,
I am assuming we all get that we need to be a people of prayer. A people set apart
and called to prayer and action.

Be reminded of the following statements as you venture into Higher, yet soggier – at
least this week – ground.

Always put God’s glory above personal comfort.

We often pray misguided prayers because we are not omniscient
(all-knowing). It’s ok – pray anyhow – we are commanded to pray without
ceasing.

No doesn’t mean No – Many times it means Not Yet!

Seek God not answers – In seeking Him you will find the answers!

Not wanting to sound like a Christian greeting card – I nervously post these
statements. But here’s the truth. These statements are true and we need to be
reminded of them.

This week let’s circle up and pray the promises of God. Looking for a few to start
with. Here are a few to feast on – no fast-food praying!

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed
away; behold, all things have become new.
2 Corinthians 5:17

Fear not, for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10

The Lord your God in your midst,
The Mighty One, will save;
He will rejoice over you with gladness,
He will quiet you with his love,
He will rejoice over you with singing.
Zephaniah 3:17
