Sunday is our congregational vote when we affirm our budget for next year and our elders. Let’s pray for our elders—Dick Giesecke, Doug Sullivan, Doug Williams, Jay Zelesky, Dan Bailey, Robin Wantland and me. Brad Hairston is the new elder we will bring on following the congregational vote. The following prayer is my most prayed prayer. I have memorized so that I can pray powerfully for others (especially leaders) when I don’t know what to pray. Pray this prayer from for yourself, our elders and another spiritual leader who is important in your life.

Colossians 1:9-12
9 For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. 10 And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light.

How do you think our lives would be different if we walking in the knowledge of His will with spiritual wisdom and understanding not relying on the common sense of the world?
