Watchmen on the Wall
The Florida Baptist Convention has set aside the month of August for prayer. Every association has been asked to assign every day of the month to different churches, asking the churches to have people praying every hour of their day. We have chosen August 5th for our day.
Please consider participating. With your help we will have someone praying for our churches and for revival every hour of every day throughout the month of August. The sign-up sheet will be on the bulletin board in the fellowship hall. You do not have to come to the church to pray, though you are welcome to do so if the church is open. More information will be provided as we get closer to our date.
As Christians prayer is one of our great responsibilities and great privileges. We feel significant when we have the ear of leaders and politicians for five minutes and yet we somehow downplay the vastly superior privilege of having the ear of the one who created everything.
Whether or not you participate in this day of prayer, be a person of prayer. Seek the Lord daily. Lift up your voice to him. Intercede for your brothers and sisters in Christ. Pray for me and others who minister in the church. Let’s be a people with holy hands lifted in prayer to the Lord our God.
