Ask the Lord to prompt His people, including you, to pray with a new fervency. May God unite us (and Christians from around the world) in the act and heart of prayer. As you look toward tomorrow, another Sunday, ask God to move in a dramatic way in our churches to mobilize His people to be the healthy followers who reach out in the name of Jesus. Pray for Christians who are being persecuted. (Acts 2:42-43)
