Uniting people to pray in the Greater Sacramento Region.
Seek God for the City 2015: February 18th- March 29th
What if we have the 2000 people who receive this newsletter, pray in agreement daily for 40 days? What if we have dozens of churches using a guide that allows us to pray, in unity, biblical prayers of hope for our city? SacramentoPRAYS exhorts and encourages you to “jump in” and commit to joining this prayer journey. How? Here are three options!
1. Purchase the printed guide from www.waymakers.org for you, your small group, your pastor or your church!
2. Download the app and have the daily prayer focus on your phone every day!
3. Follow SacramentoPRAYS on Facebook where we will be posting the daily prayers in the 40 day period.
The prayer guide makes it easy for all of us to pray rich, biblical prayers for spiritual awakening throughout your city. Dated to unite prayer during the 40 days to Palm Sunday, February 18 to March 29, 2015, Seek God for the City helps us to mobilize many to pray with united, sustained vision for people of our community. The prayers in this prayer guide are biblically grounded and easy to pray. For 2015, the prayers have been revised and sharpened, making this year’s edition even more practical as a way to stimulate your congregation to pray with confidence and clarity.
Some helpful features of Seek God For The City 2015
- Strengthens what you are already doing. No complicated program to organize or meetings to schedule.
- Unites prayer throughout your church. An attractive, easy-to-use tool that can help unite prayers between many churches throughout an entire community.
- Lifts prayer from private or trivial matters. Helps your people learn to pray for what matters most by directing attention toward what God is doing in the lives of people throughout your community.
- Builds the confidence of everyday believers to help them pray with clarity, authority and relevance as they learn to pray in keeping with scripture. Involves everyone in your church family, not just a “prayerful elite.”
- Opens a great way to pray toward Easter. For those of liturgical streams, it augments the Lenten season with a marvelous blend of repentance and intercessory hope. Those of other streams find that it lifts attention toward Christ’s visitation at Palm Sunday. The calendar concludes on Palm Sunday, leaving everyone prepared for Easter week without crowding the schedule with extra activity.
