Bold Prayers

This past Sunday we continued to talked about who we are "In Christ." I find it amazing all the scriptures that talk about who are "In Him." I think it is important that we begin to see ourselves as God sees us. As we begin to see ourselves as God sees us, it will allow us to live as children of God and as children we are then heirs and co-heirs with Christ. Ephesians and Hebrews tells us that as children of God we have every right to go to God with boldness and confidence that we can come to Him by faith and ask anything in our time of need. I was reading this morning from 1 Samuel 7 and even David had this type of relationship with God. David prayed some pretty bold prayers. He didn't always get everything he prayed for, but he prayed with a boldness. He knew that God was All-Powerful and was capable of doing anything. This week here are some bold prayers I am praying for our church:

1. God, double our church in the next year, not for numbers sake but to expand Your kingdom.
2. God, let every person in our church find a ministry so that they can be used by You.
3. Bless our finances so we can do more for Your Kingdom
4. God, use the 7 project to reach our school and community for You.
5. Continue to give us a spirit of unity so we can be a reflection of You to those outside our church.

These are just a few bold prayers I have been praying. What bold prayers are you praying? Feel free to post a comment on the blog.
