Abiding in Christ: 50 Days of Prayer and Fasting

     This special emphasis of prayer from Easter to Pentecost will help us to seek the mind and heart of Jesus together as we explore options for the long-term lease or ownership of a property in Elk River. Our desire is to grow in Christ as a local body of believers, knowing more fully what it means to be the temple of the living God (1 Corinthians 3:16, 6:19-20; Ephesians 4:1-16). Here is the prayer guide for this week:

April 29—Whoever keeps his commandments abides in God, and God in him. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit whom he has given us. Thank you, Heavenly Father, for sending your Spirit to live in us. 1 John 3:21-24

April 30—Pray that God will help us to plan Summer discipleship that will be effective and grow people in Christ-likeness.

May 1—Pray for the C12 Group Luncheon scheduled for today, may the business leaders respond in action to the ideas presented. 

May 2—Pray that all believers would care more about the opinion of their Lord than what others do. Isaiah 51:12 

May 3—Pray for opportunities to see Gospel impact in the Albanian culture.

May 4—Lord, lead us in humble confession and repentance that nothing may stand in the way of you hearing our prayers.

May 5—Pray for Catherine Rivard as she shares with university students about being a Wycliffe Bible translator. May the Lord raise up the next generation of Bible translators.

May 6—Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. Pray for those who have not yet confessed Jesus as the Son of God. 1 John 4:15

To Have My Soul Happy in the Lord, by George Muller

By Anonymous
To Have My Soul Happy in the Lord By George Muller “It has pleased the Lord to teach me a truth, the benefit of which I have not lost for more than fourteen years. The point is this: I saw more clearly than ever that the first great and primary business to which I ought to attend every day was to have my soul happy in the Lord. The first thing to be concerned about was not how much I might serve the Lord, or how I might glorify the Lord, but how I might get my soul into a happy state, and how my inner man might be nourished. “I saw that the most important thing I had to do was to give myself to the reading of the Word of God—not prayer, but the Word of God. And here again, not the simple reading of the Word of God so that it only passes through my mind just as water runs through a pipe, but considering what I read, pondering over it, and applying it to my heart. To meditate on it, that thus my heart might be comforted, encouraged, warned, reproved, instructed. And that thus,...

Meditations on the Glory of Christ: He Sits at the Right Hand of God

By
In Hebrews 1:2-4, the author makes seven claims about Jesus that when taken together greatly exalt his glory. The seventh claim the author makes about the Son is that, having made purification for sins, he now sits at the right hand of the Majesty on high. The words “he sat down” set the stage for chapter 7 where we’re taught that Jesus is both Priest and King. Prior to Jesus, no king offered his own sacrifices and no priest sat on the throne of David, for that wouldn’t be right. God had decreed that there should be a separation of powers between the priest and the king, but Jesus, unlike all before him, is worthy and able to fulfill both roles. So, on the one hand, Jesus sat down at the right hand of God after making purification for sins because the sacrifice he offered, namely himself, is sufficient. Other priests were always standing, as we see in chapter 10:11-14, because their work was never done. The blood of bulls and goats can never take away sins, so the priests could...
