TSA Western Territory Prayer Requests

Dear Friends,

Below please find this weeks "Call to Prayer"

Jesus said, “I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father” (John 14:13).

How should those words affect our prayer?
"Jesus revealed His purpose in answering prayer when He said,”…that the Father may be glorified in the Son.” In order to achieve His exalted purpose to glorify the Father, the Son has bestowed on His redeemed people the inalienable right to ask anything in His Name. In the clear light of this remarkable truth the possibilities in prayer are as great as the purpose of the Son of God. "-Tony Marshall Anderson
Pray daily that the Father might be further glorified in the Son through your life, too.
God bless you today!
Major Shelley Hill

TSA Western Territory Prayer Requests

Dear Friends,

Below please find this weeks "Call to Prayer"

As you look over this weeks prayer lists and needs, may you be reminded to "Seek" the Lord daily. Let us unite in prayer together as we pray for others - "E Pule Kakou"

Deuteronomy 4:29 -"But if you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you look for him with all your heart and with all your soul."

Joni Eareckson Tada has said, "There are no cat and mouse games to be played in prayer. If we seek Him, He promises our efforts wont be in vain."

Psalm 27: 4,8 - "One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek; That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beautiy of the Lord and to seek him in his temple... My heart says of you, "Seek his face!" Your face, Lord, I will seek."

Let's seek the Lord today with the desires of our hearts.

God bless!

Major Shelley Hill
