Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith, just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude. Colossians 2:6-7 NASB
Truly God has prepared us! We are just one week away from seeing God raise up and rally prayer gatherings throughout our nation, from community to community and from coast to coast and beyond. Millions of people in tens of thousands of local community events are prepared to come together to join their hearts and voices in prayer – then at 8 pm ET, tens of millions from over 200 countries, connected by television, radio, social media and websites, are prepared to pray together with the National Day of Prayer Broadcast – exalting the Lord Who has established us!

As we gather next week to pray, pour out your love, compassion and concern into our hearts. Cleanse us of all fear and unbelief, and instill us with faith to believe that you are God Almighty, and that Your Words are faithful and true – that “the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” In Jesus name, amen.
In Christ,
Dion Elmore
Vice President, National Day of Prayer Task Force
