DAY 29 (SUN 11/17)

"I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you" - John 17:20

PR (Praise), IN (Intercession), CF (Confession), SG (Spiritual Growth), or MN (Ministry Needs)

IN:  We pray today for the church of Jesus Christ. As followers of Jesus assemble around the world in his name today, we know that the Lord is grieved by personal disputes and denominational doctrines that divide believers. 

We pray that we might be more successful in our goal of following Christ rather than the traditions of men, and might be able to communicate that goal more clearly. We pray that we might more perfectly strive to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.  Help us to remember to exhibit true love for every sincere believer, while also seeking common ground for all believers on the Word of God, and it only. Enable us to model, in our own lives and in our mutual relationships, that unity for which Jesus prayed.

MN:  Ask God's blessings today on the work of Grief Recovery Class, and on Jenny Duncan, Karen Langston, and Gay White as they lead it.
