Prayer Challenge 1:9-11

Prayer Challenge 1:9-11

Last night at our ISCA Bible study we studied the first part of Philippians Chapter 1. After we read verses 1:9-11, Paul’s prayer for the Philippians, one of our members said “I’d like to have this prayer said for me!”. Here is that prayer:

And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God. – Philippians 1:9-11 (NIV)

One question we asked was what would happen if we all prayed this prayer for our fellowships and friends every day? What would be the impact on the world? On us? We all agreed that it would be amazing. Amazing!

So here is the challenge we agreed on: Every day this summer we are going to pray this very prayer for each other. It’s very simple. Say the prayer inserting your friends name in the prayer for all the “you and yours”.

Will you join us in this challenge?

What do you think will happen?
