Then Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, "Oh, that You would indeed bless me and enlarge my territory, that your hand might be with me, and that you would keep me from evil . . ." (1 Chronicles 4:10a-d MEV)
Today's meditation:
- Jesus lived an example for us to emulate in our behaviors and relationships characterized not by evil selfishness but by love, kindness, and compassion.
Pray today:
- For Emmanuel College to be protected from the attacks of evil ones, both human and satanic, for evil intentions and actions to find no opening nor opportunity.
- For our students, staff and faculty to be sheltered from destructive forces, but should we have to face evil, give us courage and faith to stand.
- For our students to resist the lure of youthful temptations, for the actions of our staff and faculty to follow the example of Christ, for the Emmanuel family to seek holiness, to forgive and be forgiven, to nurture and be nurtured, to love and be loved.
Pray First! Pray Through!
