Welcome to the GP Prayer Community

This is a forum for you, the people of Grace Point, and our friends to enhance our prayer life together. On a regular basis, I will write a post to encourage your prayer life. It may be a short devotional. It may be a new idea for you to try. It may be an invitation to an upcomming prayer event, or it may be an opportunity for you to serve as a prayer volunteer at church. Feel free to comment on any post. I hope you find this conversation to be valuable and encouraging.

More Fruit

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.” Galatians 5:22-23

Here is a useful idea for your prayer life. I came across it a few years ago in a book by James Nicodem, called Prayer Coach. According to Galatians 5:22-23, these attributes are evidence that the Holy Spirit is at work in a person’s life. The more a person lives in close relationship with God, the more his/her life will be characterized by these traits. When you go to God in prayer today, select one of these attributes and pray that it will grow stronger in your life and the lives of your loved ones. Think and pray for specific ways that you need to show more love, have more joy, etc.

We have a prayer gathering every Wednesday night at 7 PM in the Heritage Room at Grace Point. Please consider praying with us tonight for our church, our country, and the world.
