Tuesday Evening Prayer with Others

As we step further into a new week….. with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from MATTHEW 22 verses 23-33– as we consider some of the things that JESUS said….

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

We REJOICE in the help and blessings He has given this particular Tuesday – 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 Syria, Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, Ukraine, Russia, Yemen, Goma and other parts of our world in deep need at this time

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