Prayer Requests for August 7

Verse 12 reminds us of the real battle we are fighting! But the two preceding verses remind us of where we find our strength and the weapons for victory! We sometimes forget that our battle is not physical, but spiritual. If we keep up with things that are going on, it doesn’t take long to realize that God’s Word is true when it defines our battles as spiritual. Therefore, the way to victory is prayer and not arguing or persuading or some of the other methods we might be tempted to try. Keep on your knees my friends! We are 90 days from the election and we can’t get tired or weary of keeping this before the Lord!

1. Pray for President Bush as he travels in Asia ahead of his scheduled attendance at the opening ceremony for the Olympics.

2. Pray for the safety of our athletes in this place that is not really sympathetic to our American way of life.

3. Pray for the efforts that will be made by some Christians and Christian organizations to reach the athletes and surrounding areas for Christ!

4. Pray for the ongoing debates between the Presidential candidates concerning the issues that face us. Pray they will concentrate on those that really matter and that truth will prevail!

5. Pray that we Christians will have faith that God can actually do His saving work in the lives of those who seek office!
