GOD'S CALLING, TRIALS & PERSECUTION - PETER - A PRAYER FOR YOU

PRAYER HOUSE BELIEVES THE LORD JESUS WOULD HAVE ALL CHRISTIANS PRAY FOR OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN THE FAITH THAT ARE NOW SUFFERING PERSECUTION IN THE WORLD.

PRAYER HOUSE RECOMMENDS THE MOVIE, "GOD IS NOT DEAD."

OUR LOCALS SUFFER PERSECUTION AS WELL.

YOU, AS STANDERS ARE ALSO GOING THROUGH THE FIERY TRIAL WITH YOUR SPOUSE PERHAPS BECAUSE OF YOUR CHRISTIAN FAITH.

In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, - 2 TIMOTHY 3:12


GOD CALLS PEOPLE HE REVEALS HIMSELF TO WITH A MISSION:

PETER
When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? - MATTHEW 16:13
He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? - MATTHEW 16:15
And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. - MATTHEW 16:16
And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. - MATTHEW 16:17

PETER'S CALLING
"But I have pleaded in prayer for you, Simon, that your faith should not fail. So when you have repented and turned to me again, strengthen your brothers." - LUKE 22:32

THE ACTS OF GOD THROUGH PETER
Peter saw his opportunity and addressed the crowd. "People of Israel," he said, "what is so surprising about this? And why stare at us as though we had made this man walk by our own power or godliness?
- ACTS 3:12
Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord, - ACTS 3:19
They seized Peter and John and, because it was evening, they put them in jail until the next day. - ACTS 4:3
But many who heard the message believed; so the number of men who believed grew to about five thousand. - ACTS 4:4

PRAYER FROM PAUL THE APOSTLE
Ephesians 1:18
I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people,

PRAYER:
FATHER IN HEAVEN, IF ------------- DOES NOT KNOW YOU BECAUSE HE DOES NOT KNOW YOUR SON JESUS, REVEAL IT TO HIM AS YOU REVEALED IT TO PETER. REVEAL TO ------------ THAT JESUS YOUR SON IS THE CHRIST, THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD.

ONCE ----------------- RECEIVES THIS REVELATION FROM YOU, OUR PRAYER IS THAT OF JESUS', THAT ---------------- FAITH FAILS NOT. AND ONCE REPENTING, TURN TO YOU AGAIN, AND STRENGTHEN -------------------- FAMILY.

MAY ----------------- SEE HIS(HER) OPPORTUNITY AND ADDRESS YOUR GOSPEL TO THE UNSAVED. MANY WILL REPENT AND TURN TO YOU, LORD, SO THAT THEIR SINS MAY BE WIPED OUT.

THINGS MAY APPEAR TO GO WRONG, BUT MAY ------------ NOT BE DISCOURAGED AND CONTINUE IN HIS(HER) CALLING. MANY THAT HEAR THE GOSPEL WILL BELIEVE AND BE SAVED.

THANK YOU, LORD, IN JESUS NAME.
