40 Days of Prayer: Day 21

EACF 40 Days of Prayer 2019
Day 21: For Atlanta

Yesterday we prayed for healing in relationships. Today is MLK Day - how appropriate! I do not celebrate the man as much as the movement. MLK's dream was a Gospel dream, where sin no longer characterizes our relationships but where the peace and love from God are what cements our bonds. Pray because God loves Atlanta. Pray for people to know Jesus. Pray for we are a city with many megachurches but we do not love one another as we ought to. Pray for spiritual revival, for the well-being of all, and for governments be transformed to do their part well. Pray for the upcoming Super Bowl and against the illicit activities that accompany such events (e.g., sex trafficking). Pray for the many homeless during these cold nights and days. Pray for the part of town in which you live - do you know what to pray for? Ask God to help you to love your city.

"And when he drew near and saw the city, he wept over it" - Luke 19:41 ESV

"Philip went down to the city of Samaria and proclaimed to them the Christ." - Acts 8:5 ESV
