Passage: Romans 8:15-16

Pray for Our Church (EFCLA)

• Pray for church. Pray that the Lord to use our Church, so that brothers and sisters are willing to obey the Lord’s great commission and focus on His commands, so we can once again experience God’s power this year, and we will be reversed and restored by the Holy Spirit, and restored the pur-pose when God set up the church. We also pray that the renewed fire of the Holy Spirit falls on our church again. In this dark age, we will burn away all the things that are not pleasing to God in the church, leaving only the things that cannot be destroyed. Just like the prophet Elijah at the time, he prayed to God, ” Answer me, Lord, answer me, so these people will know that you, Lord, are God and that you are turning their hearts back again.”
• Pray for upcoming renewal camp on 8/21. Pray for Pastor Johnson, Pastor Josh, Pastor Pauyee and Pastor Benson. The four of them will lead four courses in the renewal camp. We pray that the Lord uses the messages of their four pastors to renew brothers and sisters. Please also pray for every brother and sister who is willing to participate. May the Lord renew every-one through the renewal camp so that they can experience the Holy Spirit through the renewal camp, in Jesus’s name seizing all obstacles, heal and release all the wounds in their hearts, and being able to face the challenge of the upcoming happiness group.
• Pray for the next happiness group. Pray that the Lord will raise up more brothers and sisters who are willing to return to the command of Jesus’ Great Commission and devote themselves to the mission of evangelism. We also pray that the Lord to prepare co-workers and BEST, so that our Church will experience the blessing of “send out to fish for people”.
• Pray for the Sick.  Pray for those who are sick. Pray that the Lord would heal them and restore their health.

Pray for the world

• Pray for India.  India is facing two extreme crises: the threat of COVID-19 and the persecution of Christian faith. According to Article 25 of the Indian Constitution, it guarantees freedom of religion, but Hindu extremist groups often use anti-Christian propaganda to spread lies, claiming that India is a Hindu country that is not a Christian. Let’s pray that the Lord open the eyes of the Indians so that they can see the precious role that Christians play in Indian society, and pray for the Christians in India, and pray that God will strengthen the believers in India, so that they will have the courage and faith to face the cause of leaving traditional beliefs. And able to face exclusion and discrimination.
