An Introduction to Season Five
Read MoreAll Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
Prayer: Grant almighty God, though we are creatures of dust, that you would help and sustain us, your redeemed people for the sake of our souls and your zeal to glorify your only begotten Son. We confess our weakness and mourn the struggle we have with indwelling sin. Thank you for having promised never to leave us or forsake us. Though we witness many who abandon us, we are thankful that you will never do so. You are patient and kind and continue to work to conform us into the image of your Son. Though we are aliens and strangers in this world, our hope is not in this life but in the life to come as promised by your unchanging and inspired Word. Therefore, we pray for your people who may be hurting today. We pray for your sustaining grace as they endure attacks of every kind. We ask that you would uphold them in this wicked and adulterous generation. We ask for more of your Spirit working in the lives of your people with an ever-increasing measure of grace given day unto day.
