All In Prayer Booklet: Week 2 - Saturday

Week 2 (Saturday)
Praying For Wisdom

Proverbs 3:13-18 “Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding, for the gain from her is better than gain from silver and her profit better than gold. She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her. Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her; those who hold her fast are called blessed.

Today, we encourage you to listen to the Holy Spirit and pray as you are led.

“God, I believe that Your ways are infinitely higher than my ways and Your thoughts are infinitely higher than my thoughts. So I am asking for Your wisdom. I want to trade in the faulty wisdom of this world for the perfect wisdom from You. Lead Calvary Baptist Church according to the direction of Your choosing, and give us the humility to accept whatever that might be. Show us Your will and give us Your wisdom.”

Week 2 (Thursday)
Praying For Wisdom

Ephesians 4:11-15 And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes.

All In Prayer Booklet: Week 2 - Sunday

Week 2 (Sunday)
Praying For Wisdom

James 1:5 “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.”

Wisdom can be defined here as ‘the right use of knowledge.’ We human beings are incredibly prone to live our lives based on what looks right, seems right, feels right, and sounds right. But wisdom gives us the ability to see our lives through God’s eyes and make decisions accordingly. To put it plainly, wisdom allows you to align your heart with God’s.
“Our job as (Christians), like experienced surfers, is to recognize a wave of God’s Spirit and ride it. It is not our responsibility to make waves but to recognize how God is working in the world and join Him in the endeavor. … In other words, (we) should stop praying, ‘Lord, bless what I’m doing’ and start praying, ‘Lord, help me to do what you are blessing.’”
How do we acquire such wisdom? We simply ask God for it in faith. Thankfully, He “gives generously to all without reproach.” In other words, our God gives His wisdom generously and doesn’t scold His children for asking!
This week, we ask God’s wisdom for our lives, for our families, and most especially, for our church. What does God desire for CBC? How can we best invest our resources of time, money, and energy to further His great Kingdom? What is God’ specific will for Calvary for 2017 and beyond?

“When God’s work is done in God’s way for God’s glory, it will not lack for God’s supply.”
