Day 10 of 10 Days of Prayer
Day 10 of 10 Days of Prayer
With D. Karl Thomas and Impact Staff
Pray is better in community! Agreement with other gets multiplied results.
Community is more important than power or miracles or moving mountains … If you can do all of that and you don’t have love you are nothing!!!
John 13:34 “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.”
Love :– Sacrificially ascribing infinite worth to another.
I John 3:23 “And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment.”
Hebrews 10:18-25 NLT
18 And when sins have been forgiven, there is no need to offer any more sacrifices.
19 And so, dear brothers and sisters,[f] we can boldly enter heaven’s Most Holy Place because of the blood of Jesus. 20 By his death,[g] Jesus opened a new and life-giving way through the curtain into the Most Holy Place. 21 And since we have a great High Priest who rules over God’s house, 22 let us go right into the presence of God with sincere hearts fully trusting him. For our guilty consciences have been sprinkled with Christ’s blood to make us clean, and our bodies have been washed with pure water.
23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. 24 Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. 25 And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.
1. Let Us Go Right In
We are called to approach God together.
2. Let Us Hold On To Hope
Group activity … hold on to hope by holding on to each other.
3. Let us motivate one another acts of love
Thinking of others changes your world. Serving other builds your world.
4. Let us meet and encourage Step Up to community …
Social media is not human interaction Edited life … only see the good stuff … don’t know when people unfollow you!!!
Church and being a believer by definition is community.
Real relationships get messy … you need the mess as much as the good times!!
Formation
“As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.” Pr. 27:17
“Faithful are the wounds of a friend, But the kisses of an enemy are deceitful. Pr. 27:6
Community is more important than power or miracles or moving mountains … If you all of that and you don’t have love you are nothing!!!
AGREEMENT IN PRAYER IS POWERFUL!!!
Matthew 18:18-20 “Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.”
Acts 12:5, 7 “Peter was therefore kept in prison, but constant prayer was offered to God for him by the church … Now behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the prison; and he struck Peter on the side and raised him up, saying, “Arise quickly!” And his chains fell off his hands.”
Acts 16:25-26 “But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them. Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone’s chains were loosed.
