Sunday, April 24, 2022 “The Simplicity of Christ”
2 Corinthians 11:3
“3 But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the [a]simplicity that is in Christ.”
Good evening and welcome to the Sunday Night Edition of “We are the People” Prayer for America. Every Sunday we bring together the hearts of intercessors that choose to invest a minimum of 15 minutes in prayers of agreement between the hours of 6:00p.m. and 9:00p.m. using the three focus points listed below as a guide. May God bless you for your concern for America’s future expressed in prayer tonight. We encourage you to join us in prayer daily and invite others to join us.
The Corinthians church had many attacks on its purity and faith in Jesus Christ. Tonight, we will pray in agreement with Paul’s revelation of the danger to the church that can also reveal dangers our nation faces.
Prayer Focus Point #1: The serpent in the garden tempted Eve with the promise of superior knowledge instead of honoring the one who gave our first parents the Paradise they lived in. There are forces we must bind in spiritual warfare that attempt to draw America away from the one who gave us the safety and security of what the Lord has freely given to us as one nation under God.
Prayer Focus Point #2: Paul warns of the danger of the corruption of the mind that blinds people to the truth. No doubt American life is bombarded by those things that turn the heart from doing what is right to what we told in so many ways will make a personal feel successful and happy. Pray tonight that America will turn from the corruption of sin to the contentment that comes from doing what is Biblically correct in regard to national policy and equality in public affairs.
Prayer Focus Point #3: There was a time when our country lived by the two commands Jesus taught -love the Lord with all of the heart, mind, soul and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself. Pray that God’s people in America will lead the way in restoring this way of living that others can follow and bring blessing to our land once again.
