Prayer Quote of the Day

“My life is one long daily, hourly record of answered prayer. For physical health, for mental overstrain, for guidance given marvelously, for errors and dangers averted, for enmity to the Gospel subdued, for food provided at the exact hour needed, for everything that goes to make up life and my poor service. I can testify, with a full and often wonder-stricken awe, that I believe God answers prayer.”

Prayer Bible Verse of the Day

“But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.”

James 1:6 (NIV)



Prayer of the Day

Endurance

Most gracious and all wise God, before whose face the generations rise and fall;
Thou in whom we live, and move, and have our being.
We thank thee [for] all of thy good and gracious gifts, for life and for health;
for food and for raiment; for the beauties of nature and human nature.
We come before thee painfully aware of our inadequacies and shortcomings.
We realize that we stand surrounded with the mountains of love
and we deliberately dwell in the valley of hate.
We stand amid the forces of truth and deliberately lie.
We are forever offered the high road
and yet we choose to travel the low road.
For these sins O God forgive.
Break the spell of that which blinds our minds.
Purify our hearts that we may see thee.
O God in these turbulent days when fear and doubt are mounting high
give us broad visions, penetrating eyes, and power of endurance.
Help us to work with renewed vigor for a warless world,
for a better distribution of wealth
and for a brother/sisterhood that transcends race or color.
In the name and spirit of Jesus we pray.
Amen.
