All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others
GLOBAL PRAYER
Have you ever had a nagging idea that would just not leave you alone? Regardless of what you do, you keep coming back to a particular thought? well that has happened to me and i want to share with you what is on my mind. God wants us to circle the world in prayer, starting at one point with a prayer baton and passing that baton onward and onward to others until a continous prayer has gone around the world circling the globe. It would seem that this could be like a relay race with each participant handing off the prayer baton to another to continue the prayer.
if you have any ideas how this could be done, or if you have any input please feel free to add them to this discussion.
In the meantime, I am going to pray for each of us as we start out the new year with a prayer in our hearts.

A Wonderful New YearWonderful New Year
Dr. Norman Vincent Peale
Ralph Waldo Emerson suggested that one should write on his heart that every
year can be the best year he ever lived. Therefore I'd like to give you a
text for the New Year. It wouldn't be a bad idea to write it down
somewhere so you could consult it now and then. But it is so short that
all you need to do is write it on your consciousness.This will see you through the beginning of the year, the middle of the year, and the end of the year. It is the first four words with which the Bible begins: "In the beginning God . . ." (Genesis 1:1) Take Him
at the start and you will have a wonderful time in the New Year. And
then follow these steps.1. Practice the art of forgetting.
Man is what he remembers, but man is also what he forgets. One of the healthiest things a human being can do is to become a master of
forgetting. Whatever you do, don't lug your resentments, your hates,
your frustrations, your disappointments, your regrets into the new year.
Forge ahead! It is a great art to know how to forget. Drop it, skip it,
let it go--whatever it is. Start anew.2. Take hold of the new year and shake the life out of it.
Drop the 't' off forget and forge ahead, on the basis of the text "In the beginning God . . ." Live a day at a time and take it as it comes.
Have you seen a calendar for the new year? Well, you know something? In
order to get to January 2nd you have to live through January 1st. Live a
day at a time and live on the basis of easy does it. Don't get too
worked up about it. Just take it as it comes.3. Expect great things and put your life in God's hands.
Have high hopes, have great dreams, have great belief. See visions and believe in them. Believe that life is good and that it is going to be
better and the best is yet to come. You know something? You are very
likely to get just what you expect.Our Heavenly Father, we thank Thee for life, for this precious wonder, with all its hopes, its dreams, and its opportunities. Help us to put our hands in Thine trustingly and help us to live by the text,
"In the beginning God..." Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Amen, this should be our prayer. We may not be able to go but we can certainly pray for those who are able to go. Prayer is of upmost importance in the mission given to us by our Lord. Lord, may Your servants be blessed with Your Spirit to bless Your people on this our Lord's day. May they be anointed to preach the Gospel with power. In Jesus Name. Amen.

Amen. Father, we lift up to you the Christians that are being persecuted throughout the world especially in Egypt and the rest of the Middle East. We pray for the Christian church that was recently bombed by terrorists in Alexandria, Egypt. We pray for Your people throughout our world that are suffering from severe persecution simply for believing that You, Jesus, are God. Help them to be strong. Help them not to bow their knees to Satan's works in these people that are combating Your Kingdom. In Jesus Name.
