On Mondays, the targets from the corporate prayer gathering on Saturday at 9a will be posted here. Here are this past weekend’s targets:

—–

“Praying the Church Covenant”

A Faithful, Persevering, and Committed Church

-Grace to walk out our commitments consistently and continually
-Faith in God’s promise to bring his work to completion
-Not forgetting what it meant to sign our names on the Covenant
-Spirit-empowered motivation to get back up when we fall.
…“The righteous one falls seven times, and rises again” (Prov. 24.16)

Committed to Christ’s Truth and Christ’s Church

-Our lives to testify that Scripture is our ultimate authority
-Growth in a Biblical understanding of salvation and God’s grace – living under the cross
-A Biblical value of the corporate gathering and functional membership
…Coming with a mindset to both receive and serve
…Not letting obstacles prevent consistent attendance
-Committed to follow and lead in a way that reflects Christ’s humble character

Committed to Christ’s Economy

-Grace to “make personal and corporate prayer a priority” and to “avoid its neglect or decline”
-Getting a burden for strengthening the church through intercession
-Biblical understanding of supporting Christ’s mission through finances
…Particularly, for those who have yet to know the joy of tithing obediently
-Spirit to lead us as we consider additional sacrificial giving
...“Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that increases to your credit. …And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus” (Phil. 4.17, 19).
