Time for Prayer

Dear People of God in this part of the Kingdom,

 

Did you know that during WWII, Winston Churchill had an advisor who organized a group of people who, at a prescribed hour, dropped what they were doing and spent one minute praying for the safety of England, its people, and for peace throughout the world?

 

I encourage and challenge all of us to join many in our nation who are doing the same thing. Every evening at 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time (8 p.m. Central Time, 7:00 p.m. Mountain Time, 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time), stop what you are doing and spend one minute in prayer with God. Pray for peace in our homes, schools, cities, and for everyone throughout the world. Pray for the safety of our troops. Pray for our national leaders and for the leaders of the world.

 

If you are in the habit of retiring for the evening before 9:00 p.m., then carve out another minute in your day to participate in this prayer.

 

I look forward to joining you in prayer each night!

 

Your prayer partner,

Gary
