31 Days of Prayer

Day 8

February 3, 2019

Read Psalm 42:1-2

As we continue our journey, let us pray that the hearts of all who gather for General Conference have a deep and authentic thirst for God. Let us pray that each delegate yearns for God, just as a deer craves streams of water.

Prayer for Today:

O God, just as a deer craves streams of water, make our hearts crave for you. You know the decisions that are to be made and the lives that will be shaped by those decisions.

We place the leaders of our United Methodist Church and the delegates of the General Conference into your hands. May we crave you with our whole being, so that all that is said and decided bring your kingdom here on earth as it is in heaven. We offer ourselves to you in the name of Jesus.  Amen.

A Few Reminders

Thank you for participating in this 31-day prayer journey.  Our journey will include opportunities to read and reflect on the scriptures as we pray specifically for the special General Conference, for the leaders of our denomination, and for the delegates who have represented us.  As we pray together, we will become more who God has created us to be.

You can find the delegates from the West Ohio Conference here.  Let us pray for each of them every day. It will be through our prayers that they become more who God created them to be.

Thank you for taking this journey with us.
