TOGETHER
in Faith for Tomorrow
Devotion Guide
Week One, March 1-7
The focus of our prayer this week is God, the Creator and Giver of All.
These scriptures acknowledge God as Creator.
Psalm 8:1 “O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth.”
Lamentations 2:22-23 “Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. ‘The Lord is my portion,’ says my soul, ‘therefore I hope in Him.’”
Psalm 9:1-2 “I will praise You, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will tell of Your marvelous works. I will rejoice in You; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High.”
“Think magnificently of God- His attributes, His nature, and His glory, and then praise Him with your whole heart.” Conversation With God. Lloyd John Ogilvie
Remember all the blessings that God has given, and praise Him with a grateful heart.
As we pray the prayer chosen for the caital campaign this week, let our focus be on God, Creator and Giver of All.
Almighty God,
Together, You have called us to be the body of Christ.
In Faith, we trust in You with all our hearts, acknowledge You in all our endeavors, with confidence that You will direct our paths.
For Tomorrow, we commit this capital campaign to You. Our prayer is that through the dedication of our resources, You would be glorified.
In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen
