Lord, thank you that you are, have been and always will be building your church.
It’s a huge comfort to know you’re at work. Thank you that you reach into broken lives and restore people to yourself.
Thank you that this is my story.
Lord, when I look at your church I see transference growth more than salvation.
Stir me to reach the lost Lord. You’ve chosen to broadcast your gospel in partnership with your church.
So I pray, Holy Spirit, move your church. Motivate us to action. Give us passion for the lost.
Help me to be brave when it comes to talking about you.
Help me to not be weird about it.
You’re the source of all that’s good and pure and perfect. Help me to be unashamed of that. Help me to speak truth in love.
Lord, help me to see and enjoy growth more from salvation than transference.
But Lord, I also pray you help me to rejoice in everyone who joins and commits to fellowship in the local church. Regardless of their status before you.
Lead me in your ways.
Amen
