Next Thursday, August 4th, is the first Thursday of August. We will hold our first Thursday prayer meetings. If you are able to join us in Carrollton at City Hall at noon or at Hobi International, we are grateful. If you would like to have your own prayer meeting at City Hall elsewhere please let us know so we can add you to our map.
Using the ACTS (Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving and Supplication) model of prayer, we suggest using the following verses this month.
(a) Matt 6:9 ” our Father in heaven (hallowed) or sanctified is your name. Just as a side note. Jesus, prays this prayer using the acts format. He is actually the founder of it. He starts his prayer with adoration, thanks & praise and ends it the same way!
(c) 2nd Chronicles 6:36-39
(t)2nd chronicles 7:1-3
(s) 2nd chronicles 6:40-42
Our recommended format is to start in prayer. Have someone read the first verse. Then everyone who wants to pray out loud prayers for adoration of God. Then proceed to the next verse.
If you can not make it on Thursday at noon, then we suggest that you pick any time during the rest of that weekend (Thursday thru Sunday) at your City Hall.
I would like to draw your attention to our new Pray, Learn, Go strategy. Pray (as part of First Thursday) is step one!
