Week 1: Laying the Foundation
At the beginning of the Vital Merger process, many foundational pieces need to be in place. This first week of prayer will focus on building a solid foundation.
“Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.”
Ephesians 6:10-12
6. Pray for Vision
“Where there is no vision, the people perish.”
Proverbs 29:18
The new church must have a clear understanding of the vision and direction of the church in the next few years. What is God’s vision for us?
Pray that we would have a clear understanding of God’s vision for us?
Pray for the Merger Team to be sensitive to God’s leading as they discern the vision.
Pray for the congregation to affirm the new vision.
