Is prayer really important? Apparently, God thinks so. In Jeremiah 29:4-7, the prophet speaks on behalf of God asking the people of Israel to pray for Babylon, the city where they are being held captive. In Luke 18:1-8, Jesus tells us to pray always. Our message will be “A Life of Prayer.” This week’s special music will be provided by the children of Noah’s Little Ark Christian Preschool at the 10:30 AM service.
See you Sunday.
Grace and Peace,
Pastor Jim
Jeremiah 29:4-7
4 Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: 5 Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat what they produce. 6 Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not decrease. 7 But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare.
