Evening Prayer with Others

As we step into a new week….. with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from PROVERBS chapter 18 verse 10 – as we continue to pause in Proverbs and Psalms this Summer time….

We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer as the day closes….

We REJOICE in the help and blessings He has given this particular Monday – to us and to others

We ASK for His presence, peace and strength – for ourselves and for others in our church family and our nation and in our world at this time – especially prayerfully supporting the people of Israel, Gaza, Ukraine, Russia, Yemen and other parts of our world in deep need at this time

We YIELD – say Yes – to His Kingdom ways for tomorrow
