Prayer Guide

Focused Prayer Needs

“Seek the Lord while He may be found;
Call upon Him while He is near.” Isaiah 55:6

Psalm 84:10–11 (NIV)

“Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked. For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless.”
