“Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.”  Psalm 37:4

  • Thank you, Lord, for Jesus, who has given us the gift of eternal life! Thank you, to this day, he continues to look for us, his lost sheep.
  • As we begin a new year, help us to center our hopes and thoughts on You, Lord. We pray that we will be ready for whatever opportunities that come to us to share the Good News.  Help us to meet them with patience, obedience and cheerful spirit.
  • Renew our minds with advice from King David in the Bible: “Be strong and courageous, and do the work. Don’t be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you. He will see to it that all the work related to the Temple of the Lord is finished correctly. 1 Chronicles 28:20
  • May all who search for you be filled with joy and gladness in you. May those who love your salvation repeatedly shout, “The Lord is great!” Psalm 40:16
  • We pray for our loved ones going through tough times – health, economic, and financial turmoil – we pray they may be patient with Your plan.
  • We are struggling Lord with how easily we fall into unbelief that You care for us. Help us to recognize the signs of Your presence all around us.
  • We pray for the upcoming retreat for our teens, that the time of teaching and fellowship will strengthen their relationship with God.
  • We pray for wisdom, courage, and discernment for our new Official Board and pastors as they plan for 2024.
  • Let us think about your promise to fight for us as he did for the enslaved Hebrews:  Moses answered the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.”  Exodus 14:13-14

“又要以耶和華為樂，他就將你心裡所求的賜給你。” 詩篇37:4

  • 主啊，感謝祢，因為有耶穌和祂賜給我們永生的禮物！感謝祂直到今天還在尋找我們，祂迷失的羊。
  • 主啊，當我們開始新一年的時候，幫助我們將盼望和思念集中於祢。祈禱我們能夠做好準備，抓住任何分享福音的機會。幫助我們以耐心、服從和愉快的精神來應對他們。
  • 用聖經中大衛王的忠告來更新我們的意念：你當剛強壯膽去行，不要懼怕，也不要驚惶。因為耶和華神，就是我的神，與你同在，他必不撇下你，也不丟棄你，直到耶和華殿的工作都完畢了。歷代志上28:20
  • 願一切尋求你的因你高興歡喜，願那些喜愛你救恩的常說：「當尊耶和華為大！」詩篇40:16
  • 為正在經歷困難時期–健康、經濟和財務動盪–的親友禱告。祈禱他們對祢所定的一切有耐心。
  • 主啊，我們因為多麼容易失去祢在看顧我們的信心而在掙扎。幫助我們到處都看到祢的存在。
  • 為即將到來的青少年退修會禱告，祈望教導和團契的時間能加強我們的青少年人與神的關係。
  • 為我們新的董事會成員和牧師們在2024年作計劃時祈求智慧、勇氣和聰明。
  • 讓我們思想耶和華為我們爭戰的承諾，就像祂為被奴役的希伯來人所做的那樣。摩西對百姓說：「不要懼怕，只管站住，看耶和華今天向你們所要施行的救恩。因為你們今天所看見的埃及人，必永遠不再看見了。耶和華必為你們爭戰，你們只管靜默，不要作聲。」出埃及記 14:13-14
