Into the darkness you shine, Out of the ashes we riseThere is no one like you

None like you

Our God is greater, Our God is stronger

God you are higher than any otherOur God is Healer, Awesome in powerOur God, Our God

Into the darkness you shine, Out of the ashes we riseThere is no one like you

Our God is greater, Our God is stronger

And if our God is with usThen what could stand against

“Remember that you were at that time

separated from Christ, alienated from the

commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the

covenants of promise, having no hope and

without God in the world. But now in Christ

Jesus you who once were far off have been

brought near by the blood of Christ. For he

himself is our peace, who has made us both

one and has broken down in his flesh the

dividing wall of hostility.” Ephesians 2:12-14

Praise God for his desire to reconcile us

to himself so that we might be one with

him forever.

Thank Jesus for becoming alienated from

the Father on the cross, so that we could

know Him.

Thank Him for uniting believers into one

body in Christ.

“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.” James 1:5.  “I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” Ephesians 4:1-3

*Pray for God to grant wisdom to the elders of NCPC and

Harbor as they continue to discern whether the Lord is

calling us to merge as one church.

If God’s desire if for us to merge, pray that he would make

every path straight as we continue to navigate this

possibility.

Pray for God to grant us wisdom as churches and as

individuals to be able to face the challenges of merging into

one church (if that is His will).

Pray that the gospel would grip each of our hearts, and

compel us to be humble, gentle, eager to maintain unity etc

especially in light of the need for unity and adaptability if

the merge were to occur (Ephesians 4:1-3).

Confess our need for Jesus and confess any sin that could

hinder unity.

“So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any

comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any

affection and sympathy, complete my joy by being of the

same mind, having the same love, being in full accord

and of one mind.  Do nothing from selfish ambition or

conceit, but in humility count others more significant

than yourselves.  Let each of you look not only to his own

interests, but also to the interests of others.  Have this

mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ

Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not

count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but

emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being

born in the likeness of men.  And being found in human

form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the

point of death, even death on a cross.” Philippians 2:1-8

Pray that God would erode all of the

selfishness in each of us so that we are more

concerned about the interests of each other

than ourselves.

Pray that God would strengthen us to

overcome the spiritual battle that we face;

Satan hates unity and will fight against

advances in God’s Kingdom.

Pray that we would continually utilize the

weapons of faith, prayer, and the Word.
