Walk in the Light
Prayer Objectives 2012
1. Pray that we individually and as a church family would walk in the Light in 2012 (I John 1:7).
2. Pray that we individually and as a church family would be pleasing to our Master (Ephesians 5:10).
3. Pray that we – by His grace and strength – would be becoming the kind of believer, and be doing those things, that would prepare us for the Judgment Seat of Christ (II Corinthians 5:10).
4. Pray that we would be good stewards of all that God graciously gives us, and that, without excuses, we would use what we have for His glory (I Peter 4:10; II Corinthians 8:12).
5. Pray that we would faithfully discharge our duty to be witnesses of the gospel of Jesus Christ to those who do not have a relationship with Him (Acts 1:8).
6. Pray that we would grow in our personal and corporate holiness (I Peter 1:14-16).
7. Pray that, if God wills it, we might grow by 7 new member families in 2012, and thus see God multiply our abilities to glorify Him, to evangelize the lost and to edify the saints (Acts 2:47).
