(Part 1) http://newlifenw.blogspot.com/2012/05/why-week-of-prayer-part-1.html http://newlifenw.blogspot.com/2012/05/why-week-of-prayer-part-1.html Mon, 14 May 2012 17:53:00 +0000 On June 4-8 New Life Church will be having a week of prayer. We will gather at each of our three locations over the course of this week to seek God together (look for more info. in the coming days about the schedule). Maybe you are asking, why would a church do a week of prayer? Or, better yet, why should I be involved in my church's week of prayer? Let me give you three quick answers that I think will cover both of those questions:We pray because God tells us to. (Ephesians 6:18, Colossians 4:2, 1 Thessalonians 5:17)We pray because it is good for us. (Psalm 100, Philippians 4:6-7)We pray because it accomplishes God's work in the world. (John 14:12-14)Would you take a moment right now and put "Week of Prayer" on your calendar for June 4-8, and plan to spend time with your church family in prayer that week?
