"House of Prayer" Prayer Points

News--House of Prayer Richards

In Isaiah 56:7, the Word of God says, “My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations.” We have never needed to remember these words more than right now. My hope is that our church will begin to consider the prayer points offered up below for us to pray. James says in  5:16, “The effective fervent prayers of a righteous man avails much.” 

Prayer Points for Local Needs

1. For good health and protection for our clergy and their families.

2. For the grand return of our Wednesday night services on September 22.

3. For God’s choice for our next bishop. 

4. For the oral arguments expected to be given to the State Supreme Court regarding the lawsuit against our diocese within the next few weeks. Pray for justice and righteousness to prevail on our behalf.

5. For the virus to end and for those that have it to be healed.

6. For peace for our city:

  • for our leadership
  • for our police
  • for no more violence
  • for our businesses to thrive
