The Prayer of Jabez

We’re not meant to see this prayer as a magical mantra to get God to do what we want; instead, what this prayer demonstrates is that God hears the prayers of those who seek Him; it is a reminder to God’s people (and to us) to not give up praying during difficult circumstances.

Receiving God’s Forgiveness – Day 5

Pray First is an opportunity to start off 2023 doing what matters most above all—connecting with God and growing in relationship with Him. As we enter a new year, we want to collectively pursue God through prayer and daily connection with Him churchwide. As a church we know that apart from connection with Him we cannot experience the transformation we long for in our lives and in the lives of those in our city and spheres of influence. Taking time to put Him first, sets us on the trajectory personally and collectively to experience the transformative power of His love that comes from regular connection with Him. Join us as we learn to grow in recognizing His voice and experiencing His presence together as we kick off 2023 with Pray First!
