First Friday: The Church

"Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong."
1 Corinthians 16: 13 (NKJ)


The Family Research Council hosted the "I Stand Sunday" Rally at Grace Community Church on Nov. 2, 2014. Its message focused on standing for religious freedom in the United States.
 
Dr. Ronnie Floyd, President of the Southern Baptist Convention, said, "The greatest need for America is for the church to revive."
 
November's First Friday Intercession is for The Church.


LORD God Almighty, how excellent is Your Name! You alone are worthy of all our worship and praise! Thank You for Your church. Thank You for every spiritual blessing in Christ. Thank You for the gifts You have given its members to serve one another. Forgive us for turning from You, our first love. Cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Help us to hear, understand, and obey the Holy Spirit's direction. Help us to live as children of light, in holiness. Revive us, and heal our land. May we speak Your truth with boldness, and in love. May we bless, rather than curse, others. In the Mighty Name of our Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ...amen.
