Prayer Focus - Wednesday, August 20, 2014

Focus Topic: Focused Mind

Focus Scripture: "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting Him, He endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now He is seated in the place of honor beside God's throne." - Hebrews 12:1-2

Focus Team Members: Leslie Serrano, Sheila Shedaker

Prayer: Holy Spirit, focus our minds today. Help us to know that we are surrounded by a huge crowd of witnesses; friends, family and a whole church community that is praying for us today. Let's keep our eyes on Jesus as we minister. We pray that our focus on Jesus will spill over into every encounter we have; every person we serve. May they experience the Jesus in us, so that they will come to know the Jesus in us. We lift up Leslie and Sheila and ask that You would fill their minds with peace, hope, and the ability to endure whatever the day holds. We confess our need and trust in You this day. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
