He has you just ready enough for stepping up into our Come Rest 2025 Prayer Call to intercession grounded in Psalm 56 & 1 Samuel 21:10-22:2 & Psalm 34—which we have been tracking/studying. This week He added James 1! Please read/reread these. If you want a refresher over the bible grounding of this, go to our recent entry on the Updates page, entitled, “This Poor Man Cried Out…”

 

Join us in daily prayer for the following four categories of people until further notice. In each category, wait on the Lord to bring specific individuals to your heart and mind. Pray life and life abundant over them, in Jesus’ name! We’ve been doing this every day the last two weeks and it generally takes 5-10 minutes. Occasionally He takes us deeper and longer in the praying and it is so renewing!

 

Pray for those who are afraid, that they would put all their trust in Jesus.

Pray for those who are being persecuted for following Jesus; that they would be delivered and endure fruitfully until they are.

Pray for your extended family to come join you at the feet of Jesus in real faith, hope, and love.

Pray for all who are distressed in body and soul, or enslaved in debt, or who are discontented; that they would come to Jesus and find rest and become mighty under His Captaincy!
