Top Ten Prayer Requests for the Church of God in Michigan for 2014

Thank you for praying for the Church of God in Michigan! As we head into a new year, we believe that, as we pray, God will hear us and answer our prayers. We are calling upon all of our leaders, members and friends to cover the ministry in prayer. It is my sincere hope and prayer that there will be a Revival of Prayer in Michigan in 2014. Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know. (Jeremiah 33:3 – NKJV) If my people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. (2 Chronicles 7:14 NKJV)

Top Ten Prayer Requests of 2014:
1. For a spirit of unity in the Church of God in Michigan. That there will be no division among us. That we will be one, even as God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are one (John 17). That people of all ages, cultures and nationalities will unite under the headship of Jesus Christ.
2. For protection for our pastors and leaders, their marriages and their families. That God will cover them spiritually, physically, relationally, emotionally, mentally, financially and in every other way. That no plans of the evil one will succeed and only God’s plans for them will be fulfilled. (Psalms 20:4)
3. For fulfillment of the Great Commission in our churches and members. We must make disciples of all people (Matthew 28:19-20) or we fail as a church. That making disciples will become the primary focus of all of our churches.
4. For a greater anticipation of the return of our Lord. (Matt 24:44) Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. (NKJV) He is coming back! Living in anticipation of His return will greatly affect our lifestyle.
5. For provision of resources in our churches; for generous hearts and willingness to tithe, give and support ministry. That this generosity will result in increased blessings for our churches and members. (II Corinthians 9:6)
6. For numerical and spiritual growth among all of our churches. If we are not growing, we are dying. That our pastors will be directed by the Spirit to develop a growth strategy that will result in many people coming into the church from the surrounding community. (Acts 2:47)
7. For new churches and church planters to be raised up from the churches in Michigan. We need strong churches in our major cities and communities around the state. (II Thessalonians 3:1) There are many cities in our state where we have no church.
8. For a great move of the Spirit of God among our churches; for spiritual renewal and revival that will result, as it always does, with many souls being saved and many lives being changed. (Acts 2:41)
9. For a renewal of the Word of God in our lives. (James 1:22) But be ye doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. (NKJV)
10. That we will recommit ourselves to a Holy Lifestyle. (1 Peter 1:15-16) But as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.” (NKJV) (Heb 12:14) Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord. (NKJV)
