Life

Even in my suffering I was comforted because your promise gave me life. (Psalm 119:50 GNB)

Today's meditation:

• His promise is in our name, Emmanuel, God with us, and his presence is Life.

Pray today:

• For the College's life after debt to be no less amazing than one who has a near death experience, one who is raised to new life and renewed purpose, for the heart of the people of Emmanuel to be united in following the guidance of the Holy Spirit everywhere he leads. 

Our prayers make a difference in our outcomes. Please continue to pray over the list below that focuses on key needs at Emmanuel College. 

“. . .they raised their voices together in prayer to God.” (Acts 4:24 NIV)
