Personal Prayer
Praise God as the blessed and only Ruler over all things (1 Tim. 6:15). Thank him for sustaining all things by his powerful Word and holding all things together. Confess any situation in which you have resisted God’s rule in your life. Commit yourself to knowing and doing his will. Ask the Lord to put a hedge of protection around you and your loved ones.

For Your Family and Friends
Pray that the lives of children will be filled with growing love, true knowledge, and mature judgment so they will be able to choose what is best (Phil. 1:9-10).

For the Church
Pray that God will give your church members opportunities to witness to people and invite them to church (Col. 4:2-4).

For the Kingdom
Pray for nominal Christians who are caught in worldliness, lukewarmness, ignorance, indifference, and fruitlessness in their religious lives (2 Tim. 3:2-5). Pray that they may be awakened to the true realities of the Christian faith.

For People to Know Jesus
Pray that unsaved friends, relatives, and neighbors may come to know that “salvation is found in no one else [than Christ], for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12).
