24 Hours of Prayer
As Oswald Chambers said, “Prayer does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater work.”
Prayer matters. Prayer makes a difference. And faithful, fervent prayer is the first and greatest ministry God has given us.
We invite you to participate in Central’s 24-hours of unceasing prayer as we approach Easter Sunday as we make much of Jesus and lift up the cause of Christ in our lives, church, city, and world.
Please select 1 or more half-hour time slots.
Prayer Focus (30 minutes)
We invite you to pray in the following ways:
PRAISE.
Begin your time of prayer by praising God. "Praise the Lord, all nations! Extol him, all peoples! For great is his steadfast love toward us, and the faithfulness of the LORD endures forever. Praise the Lord!” (Psalm 117:1-2)
PRAY SCRIPTURE.
Pray this passage with gratitude for the cross and with resurrection hope! “If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins…. If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people to be pitied. But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead.” (1 Corinthians 15:17-20)
INTERCEDE.
- Pray for yourself: That you wouldn’t miss the power of the cross and sufficiency of Christ this Easter (Colossians 2:6-15)
- Pray for those who are suffering: That those who are suffering ailments or discouragement would experience encounter with Jesus and hope in Jesus (Philippians 4:7)
- Pray for those who need Jesus: For prodigals to come home; for the lost to be found; for salvation and revival (Luke 15:1-32)
- Pray for our church: That we would celebrate our joy in the resurrection together and live gospel-shaped lives (Matthew 28:1-20)
