The Honor of Your Name

You are my rock and my fortress. For the honor of your name, lead me out of this danger. (Psalm 31:3 NLT)

Today's meditation:
  • We don't deserve the favor of God, never have, never will, yet he stoops to work wonders in us which display his glory and bring honor to his name.
Give thanks today:
  • We asked God specifically to help us eliminate our debts, and God responded by granting us favor, resulting in the cancellation or payment of a number of lesser debts over the past three months. Praise the Lord!
Pray today:
  • For continuing negotiations related to our debt, for deliverance from the bondage of debt, and for Emmanuel College to eventually be debt-free.
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)

PRAY FOR OUR HELPERS AND SUPPORTERS
  • To possess words of influence and to use them wisely.
  • To experience the favor of God.
  • To supply resources, both financial and otherwise, that create a bright future for the College.
PRAY FOR THE LEADERSHIP TEAM
  • To be guided by the Holy Spirit with gifts of knowledge and discernment.
  • To make good decisions and to clearly communicate them.
  • To be faithful in all circumstances, whether easy or hard, always with thankful hearts.
PRAY FOR THE TOP FIVE NEEDS OF EMMANUEL COLLEGE
  • To complete the process of dramatically reducing our debt before May 2018, and further, to eliminate our debt within 5 years.
  • To successfully achieve reaffirmation of accreditation in June 2018.
  • To be accepted into active membership in the NCAA Division II in July 2018.
  • To enroll more than 1000 students in August 2018.
  • To hear the Word of the Lord regarding life after debt and our vision for an expanded mission for 2018 and beyond.
PRAY FOR IMPORTANT UPCOMING EVENTS
  • Significant and ongoing processes regarding the reduction and elimination of debt.
  • Founders Preview recruiting event, February 16-18
  • Visit by special accreditation committee, February 20-22
  • Meeting of the Board of Trustees, March 2-3
