Built on Him

Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness. (Colossians 2:7 NLT)

Day 4 of 14 of prayer and fasting for safe passage through numerous challenges this summer.

Today's meditation:

• Reaching full maturity in Christ requires us to be where he leads us, focusing on him, feeding on his Word, answering his call to deeper faith and greater service.

Pray today:

• For fall enrollment to exceed 1000 students, for those who are planning to attend to be able to follow through, for those who are undecided to find God's will for them, for those who are making other plans, but Emmanuel is in God's will for them, to be touched by the Holy Spirit and re-directed.
• For the next early registration event on June 17 to exceed attendance goals, for students to plan now to be here then, to complete their paperwork promptly, and to send their deposits.
• For students to return in record numbers, for those who may be discouraged and thinking of giving up to give it another try, for those who may be having financial difficulty to find adequate resources.

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