Let's keep lifting each other up! "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." (Phil 4:6) Trust His plan. "Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him." (Ps 37:7) In Jesus' name! 
**Prayer Updates!** 
Let's lift up 
**Let's Pray Together!** 
**Prayer Warriors!** Let's lift up these requests together!
Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.
—Acts 8:4 (KJV)
When someone tries to stomp out the flame of dry broom weed, the sparks fly upward and ride upon the wind, spreading the sparks and igniting wildfires far and wide. Satan tried to use persecution and martyrdom to discourage the early church. As the evil one drove these Christians from their homes, they continued to share Jesus without fear wherever they went. God used their boldness to spread the message of Jesus far and wide like wildfire. Each believer was a spark driven by the Divine Wind — God's empowering Spirit — to do what Jesus had commanded: to be his "witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth" (Acts 1:8).
O great God of mercy and grace, please give me a holy passion to share your love and power with all I meet, no matter what circumstances led them into my acquaintance. Give me the wisdom to see and the courage to act on the opportunities to share Jesus with those you bring into my life. I pray all this in the name of the LORD Jesus, and for his glory and gospel. Amen.
