September Prayer Points-2
Dear [subscriber:firstname | default:reader],

God has called and ordained the local church to be a place where His people grow spiritually, hear the Word of God, receive biblical teaching, and are called into obedience (1 Timothy 4:13). Throughout the month of September, we will unite to pray for our local congregations so that they may be useful to the Lord and make an impact in the lives of our communities and congregations.

PRAYER DIRECTIVES FOR SEPTEMBER
  • Pray that your church would minister faithfully and proclaim the Gospel (Matt. 28:19, 20).
