Sunday, April 30, 2023 “A Beautiful Servant”

Genesis 24:16-18

“16 Now the young woman was very beautiful to behold, a virgin; no man had known her. And she went down to the well, filled her pitcher, and came up. 17 And the servant ran to meet her and said, “Please let me drink a little water from your pitcher.”18 So she said, “Drink, my lord.” Then she quickly let her pitcher down to her hand and gave him a drink.”

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 focus point 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 young lady was Rebekah who became the wife of Isaac, son of Abraham. The Bible tells us she was beautiful, a virgin and she had a servant’s heart. Based on these three qualities about Rebekah who is a type of Bride of Christ, let us follow her three qualities as prayer points this evening.

Prayer Focus #1: Rebekah kept herself pure. She was a virgin. Pray that believers in America destined to be the Bride of Christ will, because of the hope of His calling, keep themselves pure in heart. For as Jesus said, that person will see God. See what God is doing in our nation and society so we can be workers together with God to bring America back to God.

Prayer Focus #2: Rebekah was beautiful to look upon. Romans 10:15 “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things.” Pray that God’s people will major on the Good News of Jesus, not the negative and evil in their witness for Christ.

Prayer Focus #3: Rebekah was a servant. She enters the narrative getting water for her family. When she met Eliezar, the servant of Abraham, she was quick to fulfil his request for water which required more work for her. Pray that we who wear the name of Christ will follow in His and Rebekah’s footsteps as “servants of all.” That brings the fingerprint of God to all situations and His voice to every issue.
