Morning Prayer and Devotion
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. 1 John 1:9-10
It is not always easy to find a safe place where you can just be yourself without judgment. Often times in this life we think we have to wear a mask to hide how we feel, our struggles and disappointments. But the good news is that in Jesus Christ there is no condemnation; in fact God already knows all about us and still loves us. You can let your guard down with Him. What shortcomings do you need to confess to God?______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Afternoon Prayer and Devotion
I will set shepherds over them who will care for them, and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall any be missing, declares the Lord. Jeremiah 23:4
Though the shepherd has been called and set a part by God to care for the people he is in need of your prayers and concerns as well. The church can only be as healthy as the leader who God has set before the people, therefore, pray for his strength as he seeks God’s face and listens to God’s voice. How can you minister to the pastor through prayer? Pray for him right now. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Evening Prayer and Devotion
No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day. John 6:44
Though God chooses to use us the glory belongs go him. Our efforts are of little to no consequence unless God the Father draws the seeker after him. It is not in our eloquence of speech or presentation that makes disciples for Christ but it is the working of God’s Spirit working through us. Pray that others might see Christ in us and be drawn to him.
