Thirty Days of Prayer for the EDGE Colorado, Day 7

Day Seven

Unbelievable - all I can say.  I am so thankful to have a group of prayer warriors bring our church before the throne of Heaven.

So many miracles, God is so good  - 

Its not about the numbers, but...

Our attendance numbers are up

Our offering numbers were up 

And most importantly, God spirit showed up 

Today was a big at the EDGE.

Grant did a great job preaching Jonah 4.  

Jerry helped us honor our grads today (Rachel, Joel, Ian, Carly, Bryan, Joel) - each with their with a great future laying ahead of them.  

On behalf of our church, I would like to thank you for your prayers.  

I have often wished that Sunday church would feel like a "missions trip," full of anticipation, and hope and joy.  Today it did.  

It almost felt like the day Peter and John went to the temple

Peter Heals the Crippled Beggar

 Acts 3

¹One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer—at three in the afternoon. ²Now a man crippled from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. ³When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money. ⁴Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, "Look at us!" ⁵So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them.

 ⁶Then Peter said, "Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk." ⁷Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man's feet and ankles became strong. ⁸He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God. ⁹When all the people saw him walking and praising God, ¹⁰they recognized him as the same man who used to sit begging at the temple gate called Beautiful, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

Action steps

1) Let us work on developing a sense of wonder and amazement - God is working miracles around us every day.

2) Let us bring a sense of expectation to the many challenges and prayer requests.

3) Pray though this list of specific requests for the EDGE:

Grant's car is broke and needs $1,000

My mom will be getting a new hip next month.

Those without work, or without enough work to pay all the bills.

Those fighting cancer.

Those who are sick.

Those whose marriages are in crisis

Those who are fighting with our military around the world, and their families who wait at home for their return.  

Thanks for praying,

Mark
