EVERY FRIDAY IS PRAYER DAY
We had a great initial day of prayer with over 250 people taking 15 minutes from their day to pray for God to work in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis. We are praying for our church, our community and our country. We are praying for those affected by the virus and those in the heath field who are serving so faithfully and sacrificially.
Our Pastor has called us to continue this effort and make every Friday a Day of Prayer. Those who have signed up have committed to continue. We invite you to join us. No need to sign up, just pray. We ask you to set aside 15 minutes during the day to stop and pray. A new prayer guide will be posted here each Thursday to help direct your prayer time.
Of course, every day is a day for us to pray. We are reminded to continually be in a spirit of prayer.
2 Chronicles 7:14
”And if my people, who bear my name, humble themselves, pray and seek my face, and turn from their evil ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.”
FBC PRAYER LETTER for SEPTEMBER 19, 2025
FBC Day of Prayer Friday, September 19, 2025
“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” II Chronicles 7:14
“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you, for everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and the one who knocks; the door will be opened.” Matthew 7:7-8
Last Sunday morning, Pastor Ronny asked us to pray for four things this week regarding First Baptist Church.
1. We are beginning a new special needs class. Pray for Kathy Patterson and Courtney McGinnis as they engage the special needs students. Therefore, I tell you: Don’t worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food and the body more than clothing? Matthew 6:25
2. Pray for the men who will be nominated and join the Deacon Ministry for 2026- 2028. Deacons, likewise, should be worthy of respect, not hypocritical, not drinking a lot of wine, not greedy for money. 1 Timothy 3:8
3. Pray for our nation leaders as they try to bring our country together. With the school shootings and assassination of Charlie Kirk. Pray for the first responders, law enforcement personnel, and prosecutors. Pray for Erika Kirk, their two young children, extended family members, friends and co-workers. Pray for the Memorial Service scheduled for Sunday, September 21, 2025, in Arizona!
The Lord is near the brokenhearted; he saves those crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18, Don’t let your heart be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. John 14: 1
4. Pray for Pastor Vee and his family. His beloved wife, Nancy, went home to be with the Lord in Heaven.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort. 2 Corinthians 1:3
If you would like to share a Prayer Request that we can join you in praying for, go to fbct.org/prayer. You will find a form at the bottom of the page that can be easily and quickly filled out and submitted with your praise or request. These requests will be sent to the prayer team of intercessors. As the Lord answers your request, share your praise in the same form. May we abide in the love of God, the grace of Jesus, and the fellowship of The Holy Spirit.
Yours in Christ,
Bill Graham
