Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up the Faith Contenders Community church to you. We ask for your divine intervention and guidance in every aspect of their ministry. May your Holy Spirit be poured out upon the church, empowering them to boldly proclaim the Gospel and make disciples.
Lord, we pray for an abundance of grace for the church, that they may be strengthened in their faith and equipped to resist every temptation that comes their way. Help them to stand firm in the face of adversity and to remain blameless and without offense in a world that is crooked and perverse.
Father, we ask that you would work all things together for the good of the Faith Contenders Community church. Let every challenge and trial they face be turned into an opportunity for growth and spiritual maturity. May their love for one another abound more and more, and may they have discernment to approve things that are excellent.
We pray for the leaders and ministers of the church, that you would anoint them with wisdom and understanding. Grant them a deep knowledge of your Word and a passion to preach the truth. Help them to be faithful stewards of the responsibilities you have entrusted to them.
Lord, we also lift up those churches where the Gospel is not preached, and we ask that you would bring the light of your truth into those places. Open the hearts of those who do not know you, that they may come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
Finally, we pray for unity among believers, that we may stand together in prayer and support for one another. Help us to be diligent in our own personal prayer lives and to maintain a constant communion with you.
We thank you, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for your faithfulness to answer. May your name be glorified in the Faith Contenders Community church and in all the churches around the world. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
