CALL TO PRAYER!
The Salvation Army Call to Prayer for December 1, 2011
It’s Christmas time! Fill your prayers with the joy of the season. Remember to pray for all those who will be standing kettles, packing boxes of food, preparing Christmas Dinners for the needy and visits to the shut-ins. May God bless and touch those who are giving to help those in need. May God and His love permeate our thinking and doing this Christmas so that we all may remember “The Reason For The Season!” It is Jesus!
“My Dream for The Salvation Army; Vision 23, that there would be such an outpouring of the Spirit upon us that we would be courageous and effective witnesses in our families, communities, our country and the world” Rowan Castle. (From the book, “One Day - a dream for the Salvation Army” by Commissioner James Knaggs and Stephen Court.)
General Linda Bond calls Salvationists to join on Thursday mornings, a world- wide, weekly prayer time, to pray that we would become the people God wants us to be, and to do what He wants us to do. Pray that we shall seek the Holy Spirit, be energized, and equipped for the ministry of the 21st century.
