Day 1 Devotion 1-11-11


You + Bible + Prayer = Success

Psalms 119:133 Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.

There are at least two essentials to the Spirit-filled life – prayer and the Word of God. Prayer finds its very foundation in Scripture. You could not pray with purpose, conviction, or direction without the revelation of God that you find in the Bible. Therefore, you must study the Bible and be a person of prayer.

Have you ever considered that God desires to guide every step you take? He desires to guide not only the big steps in your life, but even the mundane steps you take every day in the kitchen or your workplace. He will also guide you to the friend who needs encouragement, the neighbor who needs Jesus, and the co-worker who needs a witness of God’s love.

Prayer Focus
Take a moment and thank God for where he has brought BFWC thus far. As we read the Bible and pray more and more… ask the Lord to continue to give our Pastors, our church leaders, and staff a heart for God and all He has in store for BFWC. Pray for wisdom and discernment BEYOND their collective years and experience. Thank God for His guidance in your steps as you read and pray, as well.
