Prayer 1 of 31

Earlier today the Lord moved me to bring copies of a book Pray the Word: 31 Prayers that Touch the Heart of God to a local business, handing them out to people I know there.  I invited them to join me in prayer for 31 days using those prayers.

Consider joining in!  If you would like a copy of the book, please pick one up at Crossroads or go to this link for a copy available online in pdf format.

Here is the Day One prayer:

Your Love Endures Forever

Consider praying this prayer out loud as a declaration of praise . . .

I will give thanks to you, O Lord, and call on Your name.  I will make known among the nations--in this nation--the amzing things that You have done.  I will sing to You and praise You alone.  Teach me what it mans to "glory in Your name" that my heart might always rejoice in You.  For it is my great desire to seek Your face alays and remember the wonders that You have done.
     I give thanks to You, Lord, for You are good. Your love endures forever!
     You remembered me when I was lost and without You and freed me from the enemy! Your love endures forever!
     While I was still in my sin, Christ died for me! Hallelujah! Your love endures forever!
     You have not kept a record of my sin, or treat me as my sin deserves, but through Christ You have removed my sin from me as far as the east is from the west and remember it no more! Hallelujah! Your faithful love endures forever!
     I will bless Your name, O Lord, and in Your name I will lift up my hands, for Your faithful love endures forever!
     I will praise You, O Lord, there is no God like You in heaven or on earth--You who keep Your covenant of love with Your servants who continue wholeheartedly in Your way.  There is nothing too difficult for You!  Your love endures forever!
    Yours is the greatness O Lord and the power and the glory and the majesty and the spendor, for everything in heaven and earth is Yours. You are exalted as head over all. Wealth and honor come from You alone for You are the ruler of all thigns.  In your hands are strength and power to exalt and give strength to all.  And I join with all of heaven, and Your people everywhere in giving You thanks and praising Your glorious name!  Hallelujah!  Amen and Amen!
