DAY 16: Praise of the Holy Spirit
But I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I am leaving; for if I do not leave, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you. And He, when He comes, will convict the world regarding sin, and righteousness, and judgment. - John 16:7-8

The third person of the Trinity is to be praised! He helps us and convicts us and the sinner. Without Him, we would be powerless to achieve the Gospel Mandate.

May the Holy Spirit be praised! May He not be grieved in our city, but may He convict our citizens and guide us into all truth and righteousness. We praise the Spirit for helping us through every situation this city has faced, and the promise of His help for every situation we will face. May the Holy Spirit be praised!

DAY 15: Local Business Owners
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. - Psalm 46:1

If you were given a one pound weight, how long could you hold it out in front of you? It may not be a lot at first, but over time we will give out from exhaustion. We often try and do the same thing with the tough situations in our own lives. Holding tight to the struggle is not how God intended us to respond to our hardships. He is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. All we must do is ask.

Lord, we lift up the local business owners here in El Dorado. We thank them for their commitment towards our community by providing both our wants and needs. Father, we pray that every local business owner would feel comforted and strengthened knowing that you are our refuge and our strength. That whatever life may throw our way, you are a very present help when we call out to you. I pray that they will be encouraged by the strength we have through you by being the hands and feet of Jesus to the lost. Thank you for your sacrifice of your son in n the cross for our sins and thank you for blessings we have all received. Amen.

DAY 14: Military
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore, my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him - Psalm 28:7 (KJV)

Today we pray for all of those serving in the military. We are very thankful for the great service they do in keeping our nation safe. May we pray that they will not only be kept safe and out of harm’s way, but also for them to have great strength from the Lord.

Dear Lord, we thank You for the men and women who serve in the United States military. Though we do not all know what they go through each day, You do. Help keep them safe, strengthen not only their bodies, but also their spirits, as well as bring them home safely to their family and friends. We ask these things in Jesus’ name, Amen.

DAY 5: Peace in our World
I lift up my eyes to the hills—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. - Psalm 121:1-2

It seems that it is becoming more difficult to watch the world news these days. There is so much strife in our world, our country, our community. I sometimes ask myself if it is possible to have peace in the world. And then I read the words in Psalms. We are reassured that our help comes from God. And we know that He is indeed enough. He is the Creator, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace!

Lord, we thank you for the world that you have created and for the beauty that we find on it. We praise you that you are the Mighty God and are thankful that we can depend on you to provide for all our needs. We pray that you will fill us with your spirit so that your love is shown. Lord, we pray that you grant peace to our hearts so that we can share your love to others and pray that your peace is then shared to all throughout the world.
