Day 38   May 31, 2006                      Day Seven—Ten Days of Constant Prayer

Read: Psalm 8 

Reflection: This Psalm of David contains some of the most loved and quoted statements pertaining to God's creation. Reflect on the majesty of God.
 
Adoration: God's creative power and majesty is displayed in the heavens and the earth. His personal touch is best seen in the creation of human beings. O Lord how majestic is Your name.
 
Confession: I admit that at times I tend to put more worth in and give more attention to the creation rather than the Creator.
In this world of beauty I need to remember Who is to be credited for all that I enjoy.
 
Thanksgiving: I thank God that He made me in His image. He trusts me to be a good steward of His creation.
 
Supplication: May I give God my constant praise when I consider how majestic is His name.
 
O Lord, my Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth. May I live in such a way that Your image might be seen in me. In Christ's Name, Amen.

Prayer Focus for Constant Prayer: The Call of God – For nations to hear the voice of God
“…and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself.”  Acts 2:39

 

For His Church:
For Christians to be filled with the Spirit in order to communicate the word of God boldly and  wisely.
For the word of God to be proclaimed to people of every language, tribe and nation (Acts 1:8).

 

For our world:
That  the world would hear of the “mighty deeds of God” in the words of their own language and the ways of their own culture (Acts 2:11).
For the Bible to be translated for the 3,000 people groups without even one verse in their language.
For Christ to be followed among the thousands of unreached people groups who lack vital, growing, multiplying churches.

That God would call to Himself many (Acts 2:39) who would call on Him to be saved (Acts 2:21).
