Day One - 21 Day Prayer Guide

Today is Day One of our 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting!  To start off we wanted to share with you some daily prayer directives.  These are topics around which you can focus your prayer time as you go through the week

21 Days of Prayer

Sunday – My Nation

(1 Timothy 2:1-2) I urge then, first of all that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone – for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.

Pray for the United States and those who lead our country (President Obama, his Cabinet, Congress and the Supreme Court). Most people don't know that America is the 3rd largest mission field in the world behind only India and China.  Pray for a Christ-Awakening to come to our nation.

Monday – My City and State

(Proverbs 11:11) Through the blessing of the upright a city is exalted.

Pray for Kentucky and for the Lexington metro area. Pray for our governor and representatives, for our mayor and city officials. Pray also for the more than 250,000 unchurched people in Lexington alone that they would find real life in Christ.

Tuesday – My Church

(Matthew 16:18) I will build my church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it.

Pray for LifeGate Church, for Pastor Ashley and his family, for our leadership team and all those who serve in ministry. Pray that 2014 would be a year of multiplication and supernatural effectives for our church.  

Wednesday – My Family

(Acts 16:31) Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved – you and your household.

Pray that each member of your family would come to know Christ.

Thursday – My Workplace (Or My School)

(Colossians 3:23-24) Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

Pray for your employer and for those you supervise. Pray for your customers and clients. Ask God to give you spiritual influence with those with whom you come into contact.

Friday – My Personal Needs

(Philippians 4:6) Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

Believe God to answer prayers about your specific needs.

Saturday – My Purpose: People

(Matthew 9:37-38) The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.

Pray for the ministries and missionaries supported by LifeGate. Ask God to connect you with His purpose and plan to introduce people to Jesus and the whole new way of life only he can give.
