Remembering the Nations in a Worldwide Day of Prayer
Prayer is God’s invitation to come alongside with Him for the matters He cares about. Corporate prayer unites our hearts, minds and wills to God’s heartbeat as we seek His face and purposes together. We gather as a global organization (Cru/CCC International) with a common prayer theme every April and October.

“The Lord has established his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom rules over all.” Psalm 103:19, ESV
Lord, you rule supreme from on high and you desire us to bless the nations so that your kingdom and your will be done on earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10). We are thus called to missions so that ultimately your glory covers the earth (Isaiah 11:9).

“I love you, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.” Psalm 18:1-2, ESV
Indeed, Lord, you are our rock and fortress, our refuge and deliverer. Who can shield us from our fear and anxiety, but you Lord whose presence is in us, who brings us peace and cast out all our fears!

“No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.” 1 John 4:12, ESV
Although we have never seen God, we experience His abiding presence, and His love is made visible as we show love to others. We are thus empowered to bless and love one another, delighting in Him, and glorifying His name!
Prayer Pointers – 23 September 2021
“With all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love.” Ephesian 4:2, ESV.
The current pandemic has reminded us that we are called to live responsibly and to love and care for one another. Bestowed with God’s unconditional and bountiful love, we are blessed to bless.
