PRAYER POINTS FOR MICHIGAN

PRAYER POINTS (FOCUS) FOR:

 PRAYER FOR THE STATE OF MICHIGAN

FRI. JUNE 3^RD 5:30P-6:30P

Thank you for joining us to pray for our Great State of Michigan.  Even if you cannot come to the GR Festival of Arts and pray in person, we thank you for setting time apart to pray wherever you may be at that time.

The Bible says:

2Chr. 7:14-15 
Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land. My eyes will be open and my ears attentive to every prayer made in this place.

• Humble ourselves
• Pray
• Seek the face of God
• Turn from sin / repent

Then the Lord will:

• Hear from heaven
• Forgive our sins
• Heal our land

In Esther 4:12-14, Esther was called to take a stand….for such a time as this.  As a people of God I encourage us to stand…take a stand and call on the Name of our Lord.

I would like to suggest an order for prayer:

• Acknowledge and exalt the Lord, give Him the honor that is due to Him.
• Thank Him for all He has done in sustaining us and all He will do to deliver us.
• Repent of our sins individually, repent for our churches, communities, cities and state.  Isaiah 59:2 (NIV) states:  But your iniquities (sins) have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.  Let us come to Lord with clean hearts. 
• Repent for the lack of Holy Reverence that is due to our Lord; there is such a lack of respect and awe that is due to our most High King Jesus.  Godly fear needs to be restored in MI.

Request:

• Pray the people of the Lord will grow into deeper maturity in Christ Jesus; in to the depths of His richness.  Pray the people of Michigan will be the spiritual leaders of this nation.
• Pray for all church, city, and state leaders; that their hearts would turn toward God and they would follow His leading.  Pray the Lord will use them to lead this state in righteousness, integrity and God fearing honor.
• Pray for the economic recovery of Michigan specifically western MI.  Pray that all will be restored that was lost and abundance will come, far greater than that which was lost.  Pray Michigan will be the leader in jobs and a leader in the economy.  Pray all that the Lord has purposed for MI. will be fulfilled.

THE LORD DESIRES TO HEAL OUR LAND

Thank you for joining us in praying for our great state, may God bless you abundantly richly, beyond all measure!!

In Him,  Dan & Penny
