Prayer Tree Week 40; October 2nd - October 8th

This quarter we are praying for, Heart of God, Salvation 

 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love he predestined us  for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved. In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth. Ephesians 1:3-10

Week 40: October 2 - 8
              
 Teach me your way, O Lord, that I may walk in your truth; unite my heart to fear your name. Psalm 86:11

“Father, we pray for all those at Esther House, both the ladies and the workers. Lord, many times, at the moment our ways seem so right to us and we are prone to go our own way, forgetting that your ways are higher than our ways; forgetting that we cause so much heartache when we go our own way…but then we remember You and Your ways and cry out to You and You always hear us. Thank you Lord. Teach us your way, O Lord and we will walk in Your Truth, in Jesus’ name. Amen”

Thank you again for partnering with us in prayer because as we know…..PRAYER CHANGES THINGS!

Blessings,
Kelly Guffey, President
