1. Prayer Guide for Nov.30-Dec. 6, 2008 with Prayer Prompts from Pastor Dave Â
Â
Adoration:
Â
 Immanuel – God with us (Isaiah 4:14; Matthew 1:23)~ The name for Messiah first given by the prophet Isaiah and
later repeated by the angel in Joseph’s dream is Immanuel—a wonderful, ancient name with an ever-present reality to
Â
it. Ever since Jesus came into the world, God is ALWAYS with us! Thank you, Jesus, that you never leave or forsake
 us, that your love never fails, and that you are a true friend.
Â
Â
Â
Confession:
Â
I confess first of all how MUCH I need you, Lord! Forgive me for sometimes acting as if my own ability is sufficient. I
 also ask your forgiveness for the sins of ommission that you have recently brought to my attention—times when I have
 procrastinated or hesitated in responding to the the promptings of your Holy Spirit, and so have missed Kingdom
opportunities. Merciful Father, grant me grace to grow in responsiveness to your Spirit.
Â
Â
Â
Thanksgiving:
Â
 For life, health, family, friends, a home, meaningful work—all the basic necesities of life and so much more, Thank
You, Lord! Having just enjoyed Thanksgiving celebrations, I’m more aware than usual of the abundant provisions from
Â
God’s generous hand. Most of all, I’m thankful for YOU, Lord—for the faithful, patient, loving and wise way you have
Â
of dealing with your children, including me. Thank you even for the trials you allow to shape me and promote growth
 in me. Thank you most of all for helping me become more like You.
Â
Â
Â
Â
Supplication:
Â
Â
For the World: We pray for those who suffer persecution and deprivation, and for those who yet need to hear the
 Gospel. We pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
 For the Nation: Grant wisdom and humility to our President- and Vice President-elect, especially as they recruit
leaders for their new administration. May our national leaders seek You and follow You, Lord.
Â
For our church: Jesus Christ, be glorified in next Sunday’s ALL FOR ONE Christmas concert. Especially, Lord, would
 you use the Cardboard Testimonies to reveal your amazing grace and transforming power? Please continue to draw
people to Yourself during this Advent Season.
