First Thursday Prayer – February 2019

February 7th is the First Thursday of the month. We will meet in Carrollton and Dallas for prayer. In Rockwall there will be prayer this Sunday (the normal second Sunday), February 10. Each month since May 2010 we have taken the first Thursday of the month to stop and pray for our nation, leaders and revival. Today our Nation observes a national day of mourning for President George H.W. Bush. Pray that this will bring healing and unity to our nation. The one constant is that the Gospel of Jesus has the ability to change the way people think and act! In short: Jesus is the answer. We need prayer! We currently have THREE locations:

  • Carrollton City Hall – Will meet on Thursday, February 7th at noon.
  • HOBI International, Dallas – will meet on Thursday, February 7th at noon
  • Rockwall – meets on the second Sunday of each month – February 10th

In Carrollton, meet by the flag poles in front of City Hall at noon.  Prayer is from noon to 12:30. In case of rain we will move under the stairs by the entrance to the city hall. Weather permitting, I typically arrive early and eat lunch by the flag poles. So if you are able, come early and join me.

In Dallas we meet at HOBI International (7601 Ambassador Dr, Dallas). Security access to the building is required. If you plan to attend that meeting, please contact Craig Boswell in advance. Prayer this month is from noon to 12:30PM. If you are coming, please arrive early to clear security. As a reminder, this month the meeting is Wednesday, October 3rd.

In Rockwall prayer is on the second Sunday of each month at Rockwall Bible Church (http://www.rockwallbible.org) from 7-8PM. This month it is February 10th.

The suggested ACTS (Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving and Supplication) verses this month are:

Adoration

O Lord , our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens.
Psalms 8:1 ESV
https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.8.1.ESV

Confession


If a man does not repent, God will whet his sword; he has bent and readied his bow; he has prepared for him his deadly weapons, making his arrows fiery shafts. Behold, the wicked man conceives evil and is pregnant with mischief and gives birth to lies. He makes a pit, digging it out, and falls into the hole that he has made. His mischief returns upon his own head, and on his own skull his violence descends.
Psalms 7:12‭-‬16 ESV
https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.7.12-16.ESV

Thanksgiving


I will give to the Lord the thanks due to his righteousness, and I will sing praise to the name of the Lord , the Most High.
Psalms 7:17 ESV
https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.7.17.ESV

Supplication


On God rests my salvation and my glory;
my mighty rock, my refuge is God.
8 Trust in him at all times, O people;
pour out your heart before him;
God is a refuge for us.


Psalms 62:7-8 ESV
https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.62.7-8.ESV

If you are unable to attend in person, we hope you’ll take time from your busy schedule to pray for our nation, leaders and revival in our churches.
