Hello everyone,

   I just wanted to say, that I have received a lot of feedback, and comments about my e-mails, and I appreciate everything that you have to say. So thank you.

   Psalm 139 (Some highlights) "O Lord, you have searched me and you know me... Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely, O Lord... How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!... Search me, O God, and know my heat; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting."

   It's easy for me to do my own thing. Especially when I have been doing it for a while. It's easy for me not to listen to God. I just don't ask him. I don't seek him first. I can find all sorts of things that get in the way of the time I want to spend with God. So I wanted to take some time today to remind myself to "seek first his kingdom and his righteousness." (Matthew 6:33a)

   Instead of writing things to pray for, I am going to write down the questions that I have for God. Use these questions yourself, or think of better, or more personal ones, and then listen to what God is speaking to you. Finally, do what he says.
 
Pray for your brothers and sisters in Christ : Who is the brother or sister that I can best pray for, and what is on your heart for them?
Pray for your church: What burdens does your body carry, and how can I help give that burden back to you?
Pray for your local Missions: Is there any way that I can help your body grow through a local mission? Which one?
Pray for your city: Where are you at work in our city? How can I be a part of your plan for this city?
Pray for your nation: When will you bring revival to our nation? How can I pray for my nation? Which leader can I pray for?
Pray for your international Missions: What part of your body is in need Lord? Where is it hurting? What will help most?
Praise God: Lord I praise you for how you move your people. Thank you for taking time to speak to us and to love us. For giving us all that we need.

May the Lord bless you with his loving words of wisdom, his powerful guidance, and his amazing love. The Lord be with you all till we meet again.

Michael
