Isaiah 65:3 - 5
When You did awesome things which we did not expect,
You came down, the mountains quaked at Your presence.
For from days of old they have not heard or perceived by ear,
Nor has the eye seen a God besides You,
Who acts in behalf of the one who waits for Him.
When You did awesome things which we did not expect,
You came down, the mountains quaked at Your presence.
---------------
Thank you,Father for being a God who is above all, who acts on behalf of those who wait for you. Thank you for the Awesome deeds that you've done in the past and the awesome things that you are doing in each of our lives today.
Forgive us, for the eyes that aren't open to your moving. Forgive us for not listening to you and looking for your actions in our lives. Heal us and teach us to see you and to listen to you.
Lord, I lift before you Nick F. Thank you for his ministry to college and career persons. Thank you for his faithfulness and his willingness to serve you. Be with him in his upcoming marriage, bless the two of them. Help them to grow together to love You. Teach him to be a good husband and one that represents you to his family. Teach him to be loving, wise and strong when he needs to be. Make him teachable to your ways.
I pray for Sanctuary. Be with the music and worship. Let this be a time when lives are drawn to you and each other. Teach those that come to Sanctuary that worship means faithfulness and commitment and not just a fun time signing and being around friends, but make it that also: cause deep friendships to grow within the group that meets so that they may be strengthened in you. Lord Jesus, be there in Your love. Let this be truly a Sanctuary for souls that need to be refreshed and restored. Where seekers can see You in the believers attending and where your people might be strengthened and built up so that they can share their faith in others lives.
Let those who attend Sanctuary feel an important part of the SG family. Help them to feel the need to invest in other functions of the church.
Teach Nick about listening and being obedient to you, as only then he can share what it is to listen to you.
I want to praise you for the ways that You are already working in his life as well as ours.
In Jesus name,
amen
