Pray weekly for our weekly services

Over the years, I've exhorted our church to be a praying church.

One of the times most important for our church to pray is as we head into our weekly Sunday service.

This is the one time each week when our church is gathered together. It provides us the opportunity, not only for corporate worship, but also mutual encouragement, fellowship, and even evangelism. These times need to be covered in prayer, and we should arrive on Sunday full of prayer.

My prayer life has greatly benefited by using prayer lists. I wanted to share with you a prayer list that I use for our Sunday service in hopes that you'll join me in concerted prayer for our Sunday gatherings.

The list isn't comprehensive, but these are 14 things I want to make sure I pray for. Each item begins with a prayer starter and includes a verse or two to set my heart on Scripture.

Download a copy of it and use it as-is or make your own list.

Regardless, I hope you'll join me in praying weekly for our weekly gatherings.
