The Moment You Pray

The moment you began to pray, a command was given. And now I am here to tell you what it was, for you are very precious to God. Listen very carefully so that you can understand the meaning of the vision.  (Daniel 9:23 NLT)

Day 24 of 31 days of prayer

Today's one-sentence meditation:

• Results follow prayers as God speaks his will for us into existence, because he is a good Father who knows how to give good gifts to all his children who are precious in his sight.

Pray Today:

• For our students to be motivated and inspired to follow Jesus closely, to obey his every command, to serve the kingdom of God through their words and actions.
• That among our students are those who will have great influence for Christ, that in their worlds they will be change-agents for good, that in the world at large their influence will be felt.
• For our faculty and staff to look beyond the rough edges in some of our students, and instead, see the diamonds in the rough God has set before us, to do our work of polishing and cleaning, building and inspiring until they shine forth as the light of Jesus in the world.

Pray First in every circumstance, challenge, and choice. Always Pray First!
