This is the audio from the November 7, 2024 live social media broadcast of encouragement and prayer by Impact Prayer Ministry’s director, Tom Lemler.
“I will strengthen them in the LORD and in his name they will walk,” declares the LORD.”
Zechariah 10:12 (NIV)
This week we will focus our prayer emphasis on living with a growing understanding of God’s care for us so that we would reflect that care to others. When we gaze into God’s Word, we discover the ongoing example of His care for people. In love, God calls us to Himself and takes care of the sin which separates us from Him. When we care for people the way God cares for us, we walk with Him. Pray that your care for others would grow as you desire for them to know God’s care. Pray that you would know how to care for the things which are your responsibility and how to trust God with the things which aren’t your responsibility. Pray that God’s care, and your care, would strengthen people in the Lord so that together we may walk in His name. Pray that the body of Christ would grow in the ways we experience and express God’s care.
“’This is what the Sovereign LORD says: ‘Woe to the shepherds of Israel who only take care of themselves! Should not shepherds take care of the flock?’”
Ezekiel 34:2 (NIV)
As you pray this week, consider the many ways you have experienced God’s care. Pray that you would consider the needs of others to be more important than your own. Pray that those under your care would know you one who cares for them even more than you care for yourself.
