Each Wednesday morning between August 12 and November 4, which is the morning after the 2020 Election, our friends at the Colson Center will host a national prayer time, via webinar.
We invite you to join in, each week, to pray first and foremost for God’s mercy, that He would revive His church, that He would bring about renewal of righteousness, that He would empower us to courageously offer protection for the most vulnerable, to champion reconciliation across our deepest divides, and that He would allow us to be instruments in the sustaining of religious freedom and the national recovery of the family.
Each prayer time will feature a devotional challenge and prayer by Christian leaders such as Os Guinness, Joni Eareckson Tada, Focus on the Family President Jim Daly, and more.
Due to Zoom capacity, there will be limited live spots each week available to all who register. However, each week’s recording will be sent to anyone who signs up.
Register today to join the prayer webinar!
Or, you can simply join the prayer time live at the Colson Center’s Facebook page at 9:30 a.m. central each Wednesday morning.
In Ephesians, Paul tells us, “We do not wrestle against flesh and blood but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.”
When people see us as their enemies, it’s difficult to remember they aren’t our enemies. But through prayer, by God’s grace, our hearts and eyes can be turned to see where the real battles are – not in politics or news or social media, but in the spiritual realm.
The great Jonathan Edwards urged his fellow pastors to “be much in prayer and fasting, both in secret and with one another. … [I]t is God’s will that the prayers of His saints shall be great and the principal means of carrying on the designs of Christ’s Kingdom in the world. When God has something to accomplish for His church, it is with His will that there should precede it the extraordinary prayer of His people.”
Similarly, Paul tell us to pray for all things at all times (1 Thessalonians 5:17), and specifically to pray for our leaders, both spiritual and secular. This is what the world needs from the Church right now, instead of the outrage we are too often known for. So that’s what we will do, together, each Wednesday until the election. I hope you will join us.
